Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

$bitOr

New from version 8.0.1.

The $bitOr operator in Amazon DocumentDB performs a bitwise OR operation on integer or long values.

Parameters

  • expressions: An array of two or more expressions, which can resolve to integers or longs.

Example (MongoDB Shell)

The following example shows how to use the $bitOr operator to perform bitwise OR on two fields.

Create sample documents

db.flags.insertMany([ {_id: 1, a: 13, b: 10}, {_id: 2, a: 7, b: 5}, {_id: 3, a: 15, b: 9} ]);

Query example

db.flags.aggregate([ { $project: { result: { $bitOr: ["$a", "$b"] } } } ]);

Output

[ {_id: 1, result: 15}, {_id: 2, result: 7}, {_id: 3, result: 15} ]

In binary: 13 (1101) OR 10 (1010) = 15 (1111); 7 (0111) OR 5 (0101) = 7 (0111); 15 (1111) OR 9 (1001) = 15 (1111).
