Count events and insert string literal during aggregation

Question

I have large collection of documents which represent some kind of events. Collection contains events for different userId.

{
    \"_id\" : ObjectId(\"57fd7d00e4b         


        

Answer 1

you can do this with aggregation like this :

db.user.aggregate([
   {
      $match:{
         $and:[
            {
               timestamp:{
                  $gte: ISODate("2016-10-12T00:00:00.000Z")
               }
            },
            {
               timestamp:{
                  $lt: ISODate("2016-10-13T00:00:00.000Z")
               }
            }
         ]
      }
   },
   {
      $group:{
         _id:"$userId",
         timestamp:{
            $first:"$timestamp"
         },
         send_message:{
            $sum:{
               $cond:[
                  {
                     $eq:[
                        "$event_type",
                        "send_message"
                     ]
                  },
                  1,
                  0
               ]
            }
         },
         clicked_cancel:{
            $sum:{
               $cond:[
                  {
                     $eq:[
                        "$event_type",
                        "clicked_cancel"
                     ]
                  },
                  1,
                  0
               ]
            }
         },
         clicked_ok:{
            $sum:{
               $cond:[
                  {
                     $eq:[
                        "$event_type",
                        "clicked_ok"
                     ]
                  },
                  1,
                  0
               ]
            }
         }
      }
   },
   {
      $project:{
         date:{
            $dateToString:{
               format:"%Y-%m-%d",
               date:"$timestamp"
            }
         },
         userId:1,
         clicked_cancel:1,
         send_message:1,
         clicked_ok:1
      }
   }
])

explanation:

keep only document for a specific day in $match stage

group doc by userId and count occurrences for each event in $group stage

finally format the timestamp field into yyyy_MM-dd format in $project stage

for the data you provided, this will output

{
   "_id":"123123123",
   "send_message":0,
   "clicked_cancel":1,
   "clicked_ok":1,
   "date":"2016-10-12"
}
