Steven Hawkins commented on TEIID-5296:
---------------------------------------

greater than null, and ifNull false also seem to work across supported versions so I'll update this to ifNull false.

> When a query contains timestamp operations like {{DAYOFMONTH}}, {{DAYOFWEEK}},.. and these are executed when some cells contain null (or missing field), MongoDB throws an exception. This exception is not handled by Teiid in any way and will fail the whole VDB query:
> {noformat}
> Remote com.mongodb.CommandFailureException: 
> { "serverUsed" : "localhost:27017" , 
> "ok" : 0.0 , "errmsg" : "can't convert from BSON type null to Date" , 
> "code" : 16006 , "
> codeName" : "Location16006"}
> {noformat}
> Perhaps Teiid could work around this somehow so that the VDB query will not fail and affected cells will contain null in the result?
> For example, this Mongo aggregation pipeline which extracts hours from timestamps:
> {noformat}
> db.collection.aggregate([
>   { 
>     $project : {
>       hour: {$hour: "$DATEVALUE"}
>     }
>   }
> ])
> {noformat}
> could be transformed to this:
> {noformat}
> db.collection.aggregate([
>   { 
>     $project : {
>       hour: { $cond: 
>         [ { $or: [ 
>                    { $eq: [ "$DATEVALUE", null ] }, 
>                    { $eq: [ { $type: "$DATEVALUE" }, "missing" ] }                                       
>                  ]
>           },
>           null, 
>           { $hour: "$DATEVALUE" } 
>         ] 
>       }
>     }
>   }
> ])
> {noformat}
> after this transformation, the {{hour}} field will be null as expected for documents where {{DATEVALUE}} is null or missing completely
