$eq

The $eq aggregation operator compares two values and returns true if they are equal, otherwise returns false.

Parameters

  • expression1: The first value to compare.

  • expression2: The second value to compare.

Example (MongoDB Shell)

The following example demonstrates using the $eq operator to check if product quantities match target values.

Create sample documents

db.inventory.insertMany([
  { _id: 1, item: "Widget", qty: 50, target: 50 },
  { _id: 2, item: "Gadget", qty: 30, target: 50 },
  { _id: 3, item: "Tool", qty: 50, target: 40 }
]);

Query example

db.inventory.aggregate([
  {
    $project: {
      item: 1,
      qty: 1,
      target: 1,
      meetsTarget: { $eq: ["$qty", "$target"] }
    }
  }
]);

Output

[
  { _id: 1, item: 'Widget', qty: 50, target: 50, meetsTarget: true },
  { _id: 2, item: 'Gadget', qty: 30, target: 50, meetsTarget: false },
  { _id: 3, item: 'Tool', qty: 50, target: 40, meetsTarget: false }
]
