Match on null array item

Imagine you have the following document in the collection Game:

{
  cells: [ null, null, { value: 'x' }, null ]
}

With Mongo syntax you can perform queries like: get documents where cell[1] is null It would look like:

db.getCollection('Game').find({'cells.1': { $type: 10 }})

For reference: https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/query-for-null-fields/

Unfortunately if we write in C#:

db.Find().Match(g => g.Cells[1] == null)

I believe that it gets translated to:

db.getCollection('Game').find({'cells.1': null})

Which will match any game document…

Is there a way to write the correct query? or at least to pass it as a raw string?

yep all done. pushed v13.2.1 to nuget. might take a few minutes to show up. thanks for the PR.

actually nevermind the above. just figured out an easy way to combine filters. i’ll add the ability to call match multiple times as a breaking change. though i doubt it would break much as 95% users are already aware of the current behavior and they probably don’t have multiple match statements in their code.
