I have the following script (script.js):
categoricalVars = db.frekvencija_ctg.find().toArray();
db.ctg.find().forEach(e => {
db.emb_ctg.insert({ ...e, frekvencija: categoricalVars });
});
When I try to load it in Mongo shell via load("script.js"), I get the following error:
[js] SyntaxError: illegal character :
If I run these expressions in Mongo shell one by one with copy/paste, they work and I get desired result. What is wrong in script?
Seems like you're using an old version of node that doesn't support fancy syntax. Either udgrade node or use old school syntax like :
var categoricalVars = db.frekvencija_ctg.find().toArray();
db.ctg.find().forEach(function(e){
db.emb_ctg.insert(Object.assign({},e, {frekvencija: categoricalVars }));
});
I have got this error before and I have resolved this by removing the braces from the arrow function passed to the forEach() method.
Try changing your script to something like this
categoricalVars = db.frekvencija_ctg.find().toArray();
db.ctg.find().forEach(function(e){
var obj = {...e};
obj.frekvencija = categoricalVars;
db.emb_ctg.insert(obj);
});
js db.ctg.find().map(function(e){ db.emb_ctg.insert({...e, frekvencija: categoricalVars})}); : in the script. I only see it being used in the insert method for the frekvencija property of the object being inserted
