$indexOfArray¶

3.4 新版功能.

Searches an array for an occurence of a specified value and returns the array index (zero-based) of the first occurence. If the value is not found, returns -1.

$indexOfArray has the following operator expression syntax:

{ $indexOfArray: [ <array expression>, <search expression>, <start>, <end> ] }

Field	Type	Description
`<array>`	string	Can be any valid expression as long as it resolves to an array. For more information on expressions, see Expressions. If the array expression resolves to a value of `null` or refers to a field that is missing, `$indexOfArray` returns `null`. If the array expression does not resolve to an array or `null` nor refers to a missing field, `$indexOfArray` returns an error.
`<search value>`	string	Can be any valid expression. For more information on expressions, see Expressions.
`<start>`	integer	Optional. An integer, or a number that can be represented as integers (such as 2.0), that specifies the starting index position for the search. Can be any valid expression that resolves to a non-negative integral number. If unspecified, the starting index position for the search is the beginning of the string.
`<end>`	integer	Optional. An integer, or a number that can be represented as integers (such as 2.0), that specifies the ending index position for the search. Can be any valid expression that resolves to a non-negative integral number. If you specify a `<end>` index value, you should also specify a `<start>` index value; otherwise, `$indexOfArray` uses the `<end>` value as the `<start>` index value instead of the `<end>` value. If unspecified, the ending index position for the search is the end of the string.

Behavior¶

If the <search expression> is found multiple times within the <array expression>, then $indexOfArray returns the index of the first <search expression> from the starting index position.

$indexOfArray returns null:

If <array expression> is null, or
If <array expression> refers to a non-existing field in the input document.

$indexOfArray returns an error:

If <array expression> is not an array and not null, or
If <start> or <end> is a negative integer (or a value that can be represented as a negative integer, like -5.0).

$indexOfArray returns -1:

If the <search expression> is not found in the array, or
If <start> is a number greater than <end>, or
If <start> is a number greater than the length of the array.

Example	Results
`{ $indexOfArray: [ [ "a", "abc" ], "a" ] }`	`0`
`{ $indexOfArray: [ [ "a", "abc", "de", ["de"] ], ["de"] ] }`	`3`
`{ $indexOfArray: [ [ 1, 2 ], 5 ] }`	`-1`
`{ $indexOfArray: [ [ 1, 2, 3 ], [1, 2] ] }`	`-1`
`{ $indexOfArray: [ [ 10, 9, 9, 8, 9 ], 9, 3 ] }`	`4`
`{ $indexOfArray: [ [ "a", "abc", "b" ], "b", 0, 1 ] }`	`-1`
`{ $indexOfArray: [ [ "a", "abc", "b" ], "b", 1, 0 ] }`	`-1`
`{ $indexOfArray: [ [ "a", "abc", "b" ], "b", 20 ] }`	`-1`
`{ $indexOfArray: [ [ null, null, null ], null ] }`	`0`
`{ $indexOfArray: [ null, "foo" ] }`	`null`
`{ $indexOfArray: [ "foo", "foo" ] }`	Error

Examples¶

Consider an inventory collection with the following documents:

{ "_id" : 1, "items" : ["one", "two", "three"] }
{ "_id" : 2, "items" : [1, 2, 3] }
{ "_id" : 3, "items" : [null, null, 2] }
{ "_id" : 4, "items" : null }
{ "_id" : 5, "amount" : 3 }

The following operation uses the $indexOfArray operator to return the array index at which the string foo is located in each items array:

db.inventory.aggregate(
   [
     {
       $project:
          {
            index: { $indexOfArray: [ "$items", 2 ] },
          }
      }
   ]
)

The operation returns the following results:

{ "_id" : 1, "index" : "-1" }
{ "_id" : 2, "index" : "1" }
{ "_id" : 3, "index" : "2" }
{ "_id" : 4, "index" : null }
{ "_id" : 5, "index" : null }
