Type errors when applying aggregation array operators on result of $split #214
Description
Hi, I'm seeing an error when attempting to apply an array operator on the result of a string $split.
If I run an aggregation like this:
db.MY_DOC.aggregate([
{
$addFields: {
pathSegments: {
$split: ["$path", "/"]
},
firstSegment: {
$arrayElemAt: ["$pathSegments", 0]
}
}
}
])
I see an error like this:
MongoServerError: PlanExecutor error during aggregation :: caused by :: $arrayElemAt's first argument must be an array, but is [Ljava.lang.String;
When I run from a java environment, I get this error
org.springframework.data.mongodb.UncategorizedMongoDbException: Command failed with error 28689 (Location28689): 'PlanExecutor error during aggregation :: caused by :: $arrayElemAt's first argument must be an array, but is [Ljava.lang.String;' on server localhost:12345.

Looking at the mongo-java-server code. It looks like $arrayElemAt is expecting a List type, but the $split return type is a String[]:
