I have some test data that i am querying using the Java mongodb client. I am just familiarizing myself with the platform and have been successfully been able to run some basic queries.
public class returnJSON {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
MongoClient mongoClient = new MongoClient("localhost", 27017);
DB db = mongoClient.getDB("test");
DBCollection table = db.getCollection("zips");
BasicDBObject searchQuery = new BasicDBObject();
searchQuery.put("pop", new BasicDBObject("$gt", 25000).append("$lt", 26000));
DBCursor cursor = table.find(searchQuery);
while (cursor.hasNext()) {
System.out.println(cursor.next());
}
cursor.close();
} catch (UnknownHostException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
However, what I would like to do is turn the standard output the java client gives me..
{
"city": "HUNTSVILLE",
"loc": [
-86.567318,
34.726866
],
"pop": 25513,
"state": "AL",
"_id": "35801"
}
{
"city": "MONTGOMERY",
"loc": [
-86.243394,
32.383443
],
"pop": 25282,
"state": "AL",
"_id": "36109"
}
into just the bits I need, i.e.
{
"city" : "HUNTSVILLE" ,
"pop" : 25513
}
{
"city" : "MONTGOMERY" ,
"pop" : 25282
}
I have seen something about BSON and MongoJack, but am not too sure if those are what I need.
The plan is for me to eventually make this information available via REST service, but that will be another question for later on.
Many Thanks.
