Queries

PXElator audit examples

> use pexlator
> db.audit.group({
 key: { daemon:true }
,initial: { count: 0 } 
,reduce: function(o,p) { p.count++ }
});

We are really interested only in daemons which aren't null:

> db.audit.ensureIndex( { daemon: true } )
> db.audit.group({
 key: { daemon:true }
,cond: { daemon: { $exists: true } }
,initial: { count: 0 }
,reduce: function(o,p) { p.count++ }
});

dhcp count usage by ip

> db.audit.ensureIndex( { "package.name": true } )

> db.audit.group({ key:{ ip:true }, cond: { "package.name": "dhcpd" }, initial: { count: 0 }, reduce: function(o,p) { p.count++ } });

package usage

> db.setProfilingLevel(2,1000);

> db.audit.group({ key:{ "package.name":true }, initial:{ count:0 }, reduce:function(o,p){ p.count++ } })

> db.system.profile.find().sort({$natural:-1}).limit(10)

{ "ts" : "Sun Jan 24 2010 15:07:53 GMT+0100 (CET)", "info" : "query pxelator.$cmd ntoreturn:1 reslen:642 nscanned:0  
query: { group: { key: { package.name: true }, initial: { count: 0.0 }, ns: \"audit\", $reduce: function (o, p) {
    p.count++;
} } }  nreturned:1 bytes:626 13887ms", "millis" : 13887 }

> db.audit.ensureIndex({ "package.name":true })

> db.audit.group({ key:{ "package.name":true }, initial:{ count:0 }, reduce:function(o,p){ p.count++ } })

doesn't help much, because we don't have cond in query.

Profile

> db.setProfilingLevel(2,1000);
{ "was" : 2, "ok" : 1 }
> db.system.profile.find()

Comparison with CouchDB

Migrate from CouchDB to MongoDB using http://svn.rot13.org/index.cgi/pxelator/view/bin/couchdb2mongodb.pl

Indexes

> db.system.indexes.find()
{ "name" : "_id_", "ns" : "pxelator.audit", "key" : { "_id" : ObjectId("000000000000000000000000") } }
{ "ns" : "pxelator.audit", "key" : { "daemon" : true }, "name" : "daemon_" }
{ "ns" : "pxelator.audit", "key" : { "key" : "package.time" }, "name" : "key_" }
{ "ns" : "pxelator.audit", "key" : { "package.name" : true }, "name" : "package.name_" }
