Hi all. I’d appreciate it if someone could take a look here and help me out: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/75583729/using-kproperty-with-list-of-objects

[Ivan Pavlov]

Since in mongo this query would look like {"bars.thingy": "thingy"}, my guess in kotlin it should be mapped similar way Foo::bars / Bar::thingy

[Ivan Pavlov]

Just checked, it is more type-safe than I supposed, it allows only nested properties, so my suggestion won't work

[Ivan Pavlov]

Then I believe the first workaround I can think of is

Foo::bars elemMatch (Bar::thingy isEqualTo "thingy")

[Erik Dreyer]

Thanks Ivan. I’ll try that

[Erik Dreyer]

That does work. @Ivan Pavlov can I tag you on stack overflow for that answer?

Or would you like to post this yourself to get credit?

[Ivan Pavlov]

I posted an answer on SO
