Compounding Criteria

Search criteria on both fields and properties may be nested and compounded into logical expressions using "$and" or "$or" operators. If no operator is specified, the default is $and

<criterion>={<"$and"|"$or">:[{<criterion>},{<criterion>}]

Here are some examples:

//This example shows both an implicit "$and" operator (since this is the default, you don't have to expressly specify it, but rather separate the criteria by a comma), and an explicit "$or" operator. 
//Find all items that are files and are in either the jcenter or my-local repositories. 
items.find({"type" : "file","$or":[{"repo" : "jcenter", "repo" : "my-local" }]})

//Find all the items that were created in a build called "my_debian_build" and whose name ends with ".deb" or all items created in a build called "my_yum_build" and whose name ends with ".rpm".
items.find(
        {
                "$or":
                [
                        {
                                "$and":
                                [
                                        {"artifact.module.build.name" : "my_debian_build"} ,
                                        {"name" : {"$match" : "*.deb"}}
                                ]
                        }, 
                        {
                                "$and":
                                [
                                        {"artifact.module.build.name" : "my_yum_build"} ,
                                        {"name" : {"$match" : "*.rpm"}}
                                ]
                        }
                ]
        }
)
  
//Find all items in a repository called "my_local" that have a property with a key called "license" and value that is any variant of "LGPL".
items.find({"repo" : "my_local"},{"@artifactory.licenses" : {"$match" : "*LGPL*"}})
