Distinct and sort

Working with Data Drivers

Hi,

Is it possible to control the sort order and limit when usung the go driver’s collection.Distinct method ?

Looking at DistinctOptions, and following the links to the implementation, i can’t see how to do this.

Thanks,

Robin

Hi @Robin_Bryce, and welcome to the forum

The distinct method here is referring to the MongoDB’s distinct command. Unfortunately the original command does not have options to sort/limit as well.

An alternative to this is to utilise aggregation pipeline $group stage, and combined with $sort and $limit. See also Retrieve Distinct Values for more information.

Wan.
