Mongodb querying nested objects

My Object is like,

{
   "Team-A": {
        "captain": "A",
        "homeGround": "some ground",
        "winLoss": "12-4-0"
    },
    "Team-B": {
        "captain": "B",
        "homeGround": "some ground 2",
        "winLoss": "4-4-4"
    }
}

I need to display this information as,

<h1>Team-A</h1>
<h2>some ground</h2>
<h3>12-4-0</h3>

<h1>Team-B</h1>
<h2>some ground2</h2>
<h3>4-4-4</h3>

Nodejs:

MongoClient.connect("mongodb://localhost:27017/MY_DB_TEST", function(err, db) {
      if(!err) {
        console.log("We are connected");        

        var collection =  db.collection('football_teams');      
        var stream = collection.find().stream();

        stream.on("data", function(item){
            console.log(item);
            res.render('index', {obj: item });
        });     
      }
    });

Jade:

h1= obj.captain
h2= obj.homeGround
h3= obj.winLoss

My console output is:

{ _id: 51064fa1e0d5d118b4b29aa0,
  'Team-A': {
        'captain": 'A',
        'homeGround": 'some ground',
        'winLoss': '12-4-0'
    } }

I'm not understanding how I should loop through my object and get the values Team-A/Team-B and their respective details.

How do I achieve this using nodejs and jade.

UPDATE:

Say there are 20 teams, my collection will consists of 20 documents. What I want to do is, loop through my collection and display info in the 20 documents as described above.

  • Is my db structure correct? Should I have a different document for each team?

  • If yes, how do I get the title of the documents (team-A, team-B) dynamically while rendering in jade?

You do get the Team-A collection as you see it in your console.log

{ _id: 51064fa1e0d5d118b4b29aa0,
  'Team-A': {
        'captain": 'A',
        'homeGround": 'some ground',
        'winLoss': '12-4-0'
    } }

The error you get is title is not defined, so I am guessing something else is breaking your code. (Perhaps the title variable for the layout is not set?)

After you fix that problem do like so

h1= obj['Team-A'].captain
h2= obj['Team-A'].homeGround
h3= obj['Team-A'].winLoss

That will give you the data.

var myobj = {
 "Team-A": {
   "captain": "A",
   "homeGround": "some ground",
   "winLoss": "12-4-0"
 },
 "Team-B": {
   "captain": "B",
   "homeGround": "some ground 2",
   "winLoss": "4-4-4"
 }
};

var key = Object.keys(obj)[0] // gives you the first key i.e. Team-A. its an array so every key is easily accessible.
var captain = myobj[key].captain // gives 'A'
var homeGround = myobj[key].homeGround // gives 'some ground'
var winloss = myobj[key].winloss //gives "12-4-0"
