Mongo dB Task Codes

1: Import the data into your own MongoDB database

1.1 Show the command to do this

Code:- mongoimport --db coursework --collection twitter –file katpost.json

1.2 Write a command to show how many documents are in your collection

Code:- db.twitter.count()

1 |Page
2: Analyse the data
2.1 Show one document

Code:- db.twitter.find().limit(1).pretty()

2 |Page
2.1 Show the unique values in one field

Code:- db.twitter.distinct('text')

3 |Page
2.3 Shows a set of documents based on some criteria. Output just two fields from the
document.

Code:-
db.twitter.find({"id_str":"1088965783777173506"},{"_id":0,"id_str":1,"text":1}).pret
ty();

4 |Page
2.4 Use a regular expression to search for some criteria. The search should be case
insensitive

Code:- db.twitter.find({"user.location" : { $regex: /^KA/i }},{"user.location" : 1 ," text"

: 1 , "_id" : 1 });

5 |Page
3: Reshape the collection
3.1 Update a field within the collection

BEFORE UPDATE

Code:-
db.twitter.update({ "_id" : ObjectId("5c5d6988be9a1c0096797d8a") },{ $set:{text:
"Updated File",}})

 AFTER UPDATE

3.2 Create a new collection based on a subset of the dataset. Include a query to show a
document from the new collection

Code:-

db.twitter.find({"text" : "Updated File"}).count()

> db.twitter.aggregate( [{$match: {"text" : "Updated File"}}, {$out:

"updatedcollection"} ] )

> db.updatedcollection.find({"text" : "Updated File"}).count()

new collection

Advantage and Disadvantage of Mongodb

1: Advantage
The advantages of using mongo dB for data handling are as follows:- (point, tutorials, 2020)
(studytonight)
1. Flexible Database
As we know that MongoDB is a schema-less database. That means MongoDB is a
database of documents containing different documents in one collection. The number of
fields, the content and the document size may varies from one document to another. This
thing gives us versatility and freedom to store different types of data.

Unlike SQL databases, where you need to decide and designate the schema of a table
before importing data, MongoDB collections do not, by default, allow its documents to
have the same scheme. that is: -

 Records in a single collection do not need to have the same set of fields, and the data
type for a field may vary from document to document within a collection.
 To modify the document structure in a collection such as creating new fields, dropping
existing fields, or modifying the field values to a new type, upgrade the documents to the
new structure.
Such versatility makes record mapping easier to an entity or an object. Each document
can suit the data fields of the entity represented, even if the document differs substantially
from other documents in the collection.

2. It uses internal memory for storing the working set, enabling faster access of data.
3. It is not needed to converse/map the application objects to the database objects.
4. MongoDB supports dynamic database query using a document query language which is
almost as effective as SQL.

2. Disadvantage
The disadvantages of using mongo dB for data handling are as follows:- (Data flair, 2018)
1. High Memory usage
MongoDB stores key names for every pair of values. There's also data redundancy due
to no functionality of join. Which results in inclining unnecessary excessive memory usage.

2. Limited Nesting: Like You cannot perform nesting of documents for more than 100 levels.
3. MongoDB doesn’t support joins like a (RDBMS)Relational Database Management
System.
4. It provides limited data size, not more than 16MB
