Fetch specific fields in a query about odmantic HOT 5 OPEN

It's not there yet but it's in the plans :)

from odmantic.

Yes, the beginning of an implementation has been done in #1 .
But in the meantime, after some thoughts I ended up thinking that it would be better to use mongo db views to that end.
The usage with odmantic would be something like this:

class Rectangle(Model):
    length: int
    width: int

LengthView = createView(Rectangle, (Rectangle.length,))
# LengthView is a View object derived from pydantic; containing only the length field
rects = await engine.find(LengthView, Rectangle.width > 10)

On top of this, since we are using mongodb view, it would be as well possible to do something like this:

class RectangleAreaView(View, model=Rectangle):
    area = Rectangle.length * Rectangle.width

This would create a View containing a field computed (db side) from some other of its fields.
