How to get object x or y in nested document - node.js

I know this has been asked before but I can't seem to find the answer, I want to get data/object in the nested array.
show image problem
schedule = await Schedule.findById({_id:'5b496ec3444152122c8d839e'})
console.log(schedule.datalayout.section.data.x)

If you want to get the specified field in the image, you need to determine field index in the array as down below:
console.log(schedule.datalayout.section[0].data[0].x)
And also, If you want to get all of the x fields in the data array, you need to write something like this:
for(let singleData of schedule.datalayout.section[0].data){
console.log(singleData.x)
}
// for using 'of' keyword, your function must be a async function.

Transforming large array of objects to csv using json2csv

I need to transform a large array of JSON (that can have over 100k positions) into a CSV.
This array is created directly in the application, it's not the result of an uploaded file.
Looking at the documentation, I've thought on using parser but it says that:
For that reason is rarely a good reason to use it until your data is very small or your application doesn't do anything else.
Because the data is not small and my app will do other things than creating the csv, I don't think it'll be the best approach but I may be misunderstanding the documentation.
Is it possible to use the others options (async parser or transform) with an already created data (and not a stream of data)?
FYI: It's a nest application but I'm using this node.js lib.
Update: I've tryied to insert with an array with over 300k positions, and it went smoothly.
Why do you need any external modules?
Converting JSON into a javascript array of javascript objects is a piece of cake with the native JSON.parse() function.
let jsontxt=await fs.readFile('mythings.json','uft8');
let mythings = JSON.parse(jsontxt);
if (!Array.isArray(mythings)) throw "Oooops, stranger things happen!"
And, then, converting a javascript array into a CSV is very straightforward.
The most obvious and absurd case is just mapping every element of the array into a string that is the JSON representation of the object element. You end up with a useless CSV with a single column containing every element of your original array. And then joining the resulting strings array into a single string, separated by newlines \n. It's good for nothing but, heck, it's a CSV!
let csvtxt = mythings.map(JSON.stringify).join("\n");
await fs.writeFile("mythings.csv",csvtxt,"utf8");
Now, you can feel that you are almost there. Replace the useless mapping function into your own
let csvtxt = mythings.map(mapElementToColumns).join("\n");
and choose a good mapping between the fields of the objects of your array, and the columns of your csv.
function mapElementToColumns(element) {
return `${JSON.stringify(element.id)},${JSON.stringify(element.name)},${JSON.stringify(element.value)}`;
}
or, in a more thorough way
function mapElementToColumns(fieldNames) {
return function (element) {
let fields = fieldnames.map(n => element[n] ? JSON.stringify(element[n]) : '""');
return fields.join(',');
}
}
that you may invoke in your map
mythings.map(mapElementToColumns(["id","name","element"])).join("\n");
Finally, you might decide to use an automated for "all fields in all objects" approach; which requires that all the objects in the original array maintain a similar fields schema.
You extract all the fields of the first object of the array, and use them as the header row of the csv and as the template for extracting the rest of the elements.
let fieldnames = Object.keys(mythings[0]);
and then use this field names array as parameter of your map function
let csvtxt= mythings.map(mapElementToColumns(fieldnames)).join("\n");
and, also, prepending them as the CSV header
csvtxt.unshift(fieldnames.join(','))
Putting all the pieces together...
function mapElementToColumns(fieldNames) {
return function (element) {
let fields = fieldnames.map(n => element[n] ? JSON.stringify(element[n]) : '""');
return fields.join(',');
}
}
let jsontxt=await fs.readFile('mythings.json','uft8');
let mythings = JSON.parse(jsontxt);
if (!Array.isArray(mythings)) throw "Oooops, stranger things happen!";
let fieldnames = Object.keys(mythings[0]);
let csvtxt= mythings.map(mapElementToColumns(fieldnames)).join("\n");
csvtxt.unshift(fieldnames.join(','));
await fs.writeFile("mythings.csv",csvtxt,"utf8");
And that's it. Pretty neat, uh?

How do I delete a string object element stored in Redis?

I am trying to delete an entire object stored in Redis using LREM, but I don't think I am doing it right, below is the code I tried:
GraphQL mutation:
deleteImage: async(_,args) => {
let data = await client.lrem("postedImagesList",0,JSON.stringify(args.id));
return data
}
postedImagesList is a redis collection of all the object elements stringified:
1) "{\"id\":\"aadc8456-a5c9-46b9-a58c-670446d95c70\",\"url\":\"chas\",\"description\":\"asd\",\"posterName\":\"asda\",\"binned\":false,\"userPosted\":true}"
2) "{\"id\":\"a24d6d1b-224f-400d-8b84-dac83d8eaf92\",\"url\":\"ihir\",\"description\":\"helped\",\"posterName\":\"bhi\",\"binned\":false,\"userPosted\":true}"
I am given the id as an argument and I have to delete the entire object, how can I do so? I am adding the elements using lpushasync.
Please see the LREM docs.
LREM key count element
The element argument has to have an exact match, so you can't match by ID.
You might want to consider using the RedisJSON using the JSON.DEL you should be easily achieve what you're looking for.

Get multiple documents from collection using nodejs and mongodb

Hi I have two mongodb collections. The first one returns json data (array) and with the output of this, I want to return documents that match.
When I run Console.log (req.bidder.myBids) I get the following output:
[{"productId":"3798b537-9c7b-4395-9e41-fd0ba39aa984","price":3010},{"productId":"3798b537-9c7b-4395-9e41-fd0ba39aa984","price":3020},{"productId":"4c4bd71c-6664-4d56-b5d3-6428fe1bed19","price":1040},{"productId":"4c4bd71c-6664-4d56-b5d3-6428fe1bed19","price":1050},{"productId":"4c4bd71c-6664-4d56-b5d3-6428fe1bed19","price":1060},{"productId":"4c4bd71c-6664-4d56-b5d3-6428fe1bed19","price":1070},{"productId":"4c4bd71c-6664-4d56-b5d3-6428fe1bed19","price":1090},{"productId":"4c4bd71c-6664-4d56-b5d3-6428fe1bed19","price":1100}]
The productId has duplicates, I want to remove duplicates and then call a routine that finds all the products that match and output as json.
So far I have this code that only outputs one document, but cant figure out how to add the array of productId's and then fetch all corresponding products.
var agencyId = req.body.agencyId;
var productId = req.body.productId;
if (!validate.STRING(agencyId)) {
res.apiError(messages.server.invalid_request);
} else {
dbProduct.find({productId:{$in:['3798b537-9c7b-4395-9e41-fd0ba39aa984','4c4bd71c-6664-4d56-b5d3-6428fe1bed19']}
}).then(dbRes => {
console.log(dbRes);
Updated code and works with hard-wired productId and updated above code. Looking at how to get the array data and transpose replacing the hard-wired productId's
The $in operator is what you want. See the docs here: https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/query/in/

TypeError: Cannot read property 'substring' of undefined

Written in node.js file
The function is returning the error:
Returns the ACE occupation exhibit identifier
Example of originalID: 46R-002-30BroadJour12_01-12_11
Expected output: 46R-002
/*This function is returning the error:
Cannot read property 'substring' of undefined*/
function splitID(originalID){
var aceid = originalID.substring(0,7);
return aceid;
}
//1. Get the ace exhibit occupation id for each of them and put it in a parallel array.
for (var row in values) {
//split the 5th column using our function
var output = splitID(row[4]);
var result = getOccupation(output);
//now we add the split output to our occupation array.
occupationsToInsert.append(result);
}
If you may refer to the documentation here at MDN, it advises against using for...in for looping over the arrays because it does not give consistent values on return. It rather iterates on the enumerable properties of the concerned object passed to it.
In other words, for (var row in values) would not iterate over each individual rows as expected, but rather the enumerable properties of the values list.
So, for your const array, you can find the enumerable properties by simply doing
Object.getOwnPropertyNames(values)
which would return you the following list :
["0", "length"]
You're essentially trying to access the fourth element of this array which doesn't exist, and thereby it is undefined, causing the error you observe.
The error is telling you the exact problem: originalID is undefined. In your for loop, row[4] is resulting in an undefined value. Verify your values array contains what you are expecting.

Couchdb query for values calculated from key input

suppose i have the following data in my database:
[1,2],[2,1],[1,3],[3,1]...
were the numbers represent the a and b values of the formula a*x+b
what i now want is a query that returns the difference to a given point x,y.
for example: the point [2,6] is given. i want my query to return
[1,2] = -2 (1*2+2=4 4-6=-2)
[2,1] = -1 (2*2+1=5 5-6=-1)
[1,3] = -1 (1*2+3=5 4-6=-1)
[3,1] = 1 (3*2+1=7 7-6=-1)
I know how to do this in SQL but the data is already in a couchdb. I'm quite new to the NoSQL world and was wondering if something like this would be possible in couchdb.
what you can do is to use the standard MapReduce functionality of CouchDB.
Map is function you put in a view, which finds your data. You can have various criteria how to locate the docs you need. Next, if you specify so in the query with reduce=true, a reduce function is executed on each document that matched the map condition. You can use JavaScript to perform various operations on the document's values.
In your case, the map can look something like this:
function(doc) {
if(doc.a && doc.b) {
emit(doc._id,[doc.a, doc.b]);
}
}
then, the reduce gets called, like this:
function(keys, values, rereduce) {
var res;
//do something with values...
return res;
}
In your case keys will be list of document ID's and values will be the array of your a & b fields.
When you call the MapReduce (depending what method you use to access the DB), you should specify reduce=true.
Good resources on MapReduce (and on Views, Sorting and List funtions) are:
http://guide.couchdb.org/draft/views.html
http://www.slideshare.net/okurow/couchdb-mapreduce-13321353
Another way to go is to use a list function on the Map result, if you want to output the result in HTML. A good reason to use List function is that you can pass arguments to it with querystring, in your case it may be the point for which you want to calculate distances.
For detailed description on List functions, have a look here:
http://guide.couchdb.org/draft/transforming.html
Hope this helps.
