$gte (aggregation)¶
On this page
Definition¶
- $gte¶
Compares two values and returns:
- true when the first value is greater than or equivalent to the second value.
- false when the first value is less than the second value.
The $gte compares both value and type, using the specified BSON comparison order for values of different types.
$gte has the following syntax:
{ $gte: [ <expression1>, <expression2> ] }
For more information on expressions, see Expressions.
Example¶
Consider an inventory collection with the following documents:
{ "_id" : 1, "item" : "abc1", description: "product 1", qty: 300 }
{ "_id" : 2, "item" : "abc2", description: "product 2", qty: 200 }
{ "_id" : 3, "item" : "xyz1", description: "product 3", qty: 250 }
{ "_id" : 4, "item" : "VWZ1", description: "product 4", qty: 300 }
{ "_id" : 5, "item" : "VWZ2", description: "product 5", qty: 180 }
The following operation uses the $gte operator to determine if qty is greater than or equal to 250:
db.inventory.aggregate(
[
{
$project:
{
item: 1,
qty: 1,
qtyGte250: { $gte: [ "$qty", 250 ] },
_id: 0
}
}
]
)
The operation returns the following results:
{ "item" : "abc1", "qty" : 300, "qtyGte250" : true }
{ "item" : "abc2", "qty" : 200, "qtyGte250" : false }
{ "item" : "xyz1", "qty" : 250, "qtyGte250" : true }
{ "item" : "VWZ1", "qty" : 300, "qtyGte250" : true }
{ "item" : "VWZ2", "qty" : 180, "qtyGte250" : false }
