Query represents Mongo "find" operation.

Query provides a set of methods to facilitate the specification of "find" command. These methods can be chained together.

For example,

$query = new Query();
// compose the query
$query->select(['name', 'status'])
    ->from('customer')
    ->limit(10);
// execute the query
$rows = $query->all();

Property Details

$collection public read-only property

Collection instance.

public yii\mongodb\Collection getCollection ( $db = null )
$from public property

The collection to be selected from. If string considered as the name of the collection inside the default database. If array - first element considered as the name of the database, second - as name of collection inside that database

See also from().

public string|array $from = null
$options public property

Cursor options in format: optionKey => optionValue

See also:

public array $options = []
$select public property

The fields of the results to return. For example: ['name', 'group_id'], ['name' => true, '_id' => false]. Unless directly excluded, the "_id" field is always returned. If not set, it means selecting all columns.

See also select().

public array $select = []

Method Details

addOptions() public method

See also options().

public $this addOptions ( $options )
$options array

Cursor options in format: optionName => optionValue
return $this

The query object itself
aggregate() protected method

Performs the aggregation for the given column.

protected integer aggregate ( $column, $operator, $db )
$column string

return array

The query results. If the query results in nothing, an empty array will be returned.
andFilterCompare() public method (available since version 2.0.5)

Helper method for easy querying on values containing some common operators.

The comparison operator is intelligently determined based on the first few characters in the given value and internally translated to a MongoDB operator. In particular, it recognizes the following operators if they appear as the leading characters in the given value: <: the column must be less than the given value ($lt). >: the column must be greater than the given value ($gt). <=: the column must be less than or equal to the given value ($lte). >=: the column must be greater than or equal to the given value ($gte). <>: the column must not be the same as the given value ($ne). Note that when $partialMatch is true, this would mean the value must not be a substring of the column. =: the column must be equal to the given value ($eq). none of the above: use the $defaultOperator

Note that when the value is empty, no comparison expression will be added to the search condition.

See also Collection::buildCondition().

public $this andFilterCompare ( $name, $value, $defaultOperator = '=' )
$name string
