mongodb - how to use aggregate function in meteor

Question

I'm working on the following document

{
"_id" : 12,
"firstName" : "wer",
"People" : [ 
    {
        "uuid" : "123",
        "name" : "sugun",
        "person" : [ 
            {
                "uuid" : "add32",
                "name" : "ssss"
            }, 
            {
                "uuid" : "fdg456",
                "name" : "gfg"
            }
        ]
    }, 
    {
        "uuid" : "222",
        "name" : "kiran"
    }
]
} 

I want to get my output as following

{
"_id" : 456,
"People" : [ 
    {
        "uuid" : "123",
        "name" : "sugun",
        "person" : [ 
            {
                "uuid" : "add32",
                "name" : "ssss"
            }
        ]
    }
]
}

when iam using following command in mongo shell it give my required output

 db.people.aggregate([
    {$match: {_id: 12}}, 
    {$unwind: "$People"}, 
    {$unwind: "$People.person"}, 
    {$match: {"People.uuid": "123", "People.person.uuid" : "add32"}}
 ])

but when iam using same in my meteor app aggregate is not working...... so can i do the same using find or findOne methods............. or if there is any possibility to use aggregate function in my meteor app....

By using rawCollection you can pass in the same pipeline that you've been using in your mongo shell.

There is no need to install a third-party package to do this.

const stats = await MyCollection.rawCollection()
    .aggregate([
      {$match: {_id: 12}}, 
      {$unwind: "$People"}, 
      {$unwind: "$People.person"}, 
      {$match: {"People.uuid": "123", "People.person.uuid" : "add32"}}
    ])
    .toArray();
