Aggregation Pipeline

• Connecting information with users
• Aggregation pipelines in MongoDB
• Advice to learn from documentation

Understanding Aggregation

• Usage: Processing data in stages
• Each stage's operation passes onto the next stage
• How to write aggregation pipelines?
• Basic syntax: db.collection.aggregate()

Explain with Example

• Adding dummy data (books and authors)
• MongoDB collections: users, books, authors, subscriptions, etc.
• Example of books aggregation with lookup and join

Pipe A working in it

• Joining users' subscriptions
• Using stages in aggregation pipelines
• Useful operators: $match, $lookup, $addFields, etc.

Stages

$match

• Using Tea and Code channel
• Filters documents based on criteria

$lookup

• Join information from different collections
• Example: Join subscriptions with users
• Fields: from, localField, foreignField, as (result field name)

$addFields

• Adding new fields
• Example: Subscribers count and channel subscriptions count

Projecting Data

$project

• Returning limited fields
• Not sending all data fields
• Optimizing network traffic

Applying Coding

• Fetching user channel profile
• Writing aggregation pipelines
• Error handling for missing or incorrect usernames
• Implementing conditions and calculations like counting subscribers
• Using $size operator for counts
• Returning final aggregated data

Various Conditions and Motivation

• Checking subscribers
• Using nested conditions and operators
• Writing another function for user history retrieval

Practical Documentation

• Additional information: MongoDB documentation
• List of operators and their usage
• Examples and use cases

Review and Conclusion

• Detailed explanation and practical application of aggregation pipelines
• Better understanding through projects and code
• Honest effort in coding and teaching during presentation
