Example (MongoDB Shell)

This example demonstrates how to use the $dayOfYear operator to extract the day of the year from a date field in an Amazon DocumentDB collection.

Create sample documents

db.weather.insert([
  {
    "temperature" : 97.5,
    "humidity": 0.60,
    "date" : new Date("2023-03-15")
  },
  {
    "temperature" : 82.3,
    "humidity": 0.75,
    "date" : new Date("2023-12-31")
  }
])

Query example

db.weather.aggregate([
  {
    $project: {
      dayOfYear: { $dayOfYear: "$date" }
    }
  }
]).pretty()

Output

{ "_id" : ObjectId("642b86fc7d8e07af279bbe63"), "dayOfYear" : 74 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("642b86fc7d8e07af279bbe64"), "dayOfYear" : 365 }
