使用python。返回集合中所有顶级键的集合:

#Using pymongo and connection named 'db'

reduce(
    lambda all_keys, rec_keys: all_keys | set(rec_keys), 
    map(lambda d: d.keys(), db.things.find()), 
    set()
)

可能有点偏离主题，但你可以递归地漂亮打印对象的所有键/字段:

function _printFields(item, level) {
    if ((typeof item) != "object") {
        return
    }
    for (var index in item) {
        print(" ".repeat(level * 4) + index)
        if ((typeof item[index]) == "object") {
            _printFields(item[index], level + 1)
        }
    }
}

function printFields(item) {
    _printFields(item, 0)
}

当集合中的所有对象都具有相同的结构时非常有用。

使用pymongo进行清理和可重用的解决方案:

from pymongo import MongoClient
from bson import Code

def get_keys(db, collection):
    client = MongoClient()
    db = client[db]
    map = Code("function() { for (var key in this) { emit(key, null); } }")
    reduce = Code("function(key, stuff) { return null; }")
    result = db[collection].map_reduce(map, reduce, "myresults")
    return result.distinct('_id')

用法:

get_keys('dbname', 'collection')
>> ['key1', 'key2', ... ]

这一行将集合中的所有键提取到一个逗号分隔的排序字符串中:

db.<collection>.find().map((x) => Object.keys(x)).reduce((a, e) => {for (el of e) { if(!a.includes(el)) { a.push(el) }  }; return a}, []).sort((a, b) => a.toLowerCase() > b.toLowerCase()).join(", ")

这个查询的结果通常是这样的:

_class, _id, address, city, companyName, country, emailId, firstName, isAssigned, isLoggedIn, lastLoggedIn, lastName, location, mobile, printName, roleName, route, state, status, token

要获得所有键减去_id的列表，可以考虑运行以下聚合管道:

var keys = db.collection.aggregate([
    { "$project": {
       "hashmaps": { "$objectToArray": "$$ROOT" } 
    } }, 
    { "$group": {
        "_id": null,
        "fields": { "$addToSet": "$hashmaps.k" }
    } },
    { "$project": {
            "keys": {
                "$setDifference": [
                    {
                        "$reduce": {
                            "input": "$fields",
                            "initialValue": [],
                            "in": { "$setUnion" : ["$$value", "$$this"] }
                        }
                    },
                    ["_id"]
                ]
            }
        }
    }
]).toArray()[0]["keys"];

下面是用Python编写的示例: 这个示例内联返回结果。

from pymongo import MongoClient
from bson.code import Code

mapper = Code("""
    function() {
                  for (var key in this) { emit(key, null); }
               }
""")
reducer = Code("""
    function(key, stuff) { return null; }
""")

distinctThingFields = db.things.map_reduce(mapper, reducer
    , out = {'inline' : 1}
    , full_response = True)
## do something with distinctThingFields['results']
