MongoDB findRaw doesn't seem to work

Bug description

I can’t seem to use the MongoDB findRaw command successfully. I can verify that findFirst works though on the same client. For example…

// doesnt work
console.log(await client.user.findRaw({
  filter: {
    id: {$eq: '6M4D3ncvpAWy2Fo8T'}
  }
}))

// does work
console.log(await client.user.findFirst({
  where: {
    id: '6M4D3ncvpAWy2Fo8T'
  }
}))

Note: I don’t think its related to how the IDs are defined. if i include another basic string field and try to query on that it still doesnt work. Nor a basic Int field.

How to reproduce

1. Generate a client with the above schema. (Note that our IDs do not use ObjectIds but instead are just unique strings)
2. Try the console.log statements above

Expected behavior

I expect at least one record to be found.

Prisma information

my schema is very basic:

generator client {
  provider = "prisma-client-js"
  output   = "./generated/mongo-db"
  previewFeatures = ["mongoDb"]
}

datasource db {
  provider = "mongodb"
  url      = env("MONGO_DATABASE_URL")
}

model User {
  id    String  @unique @id  @map("_id") 

  @@map("users")
}

Environment & setup

• OS: PopOS
• Database: MongoDB
• Node.js version: 16.13.2

Hey @stringbeans, since ids are represented with ObjectIds or $oid on the db level, you need to build your query like the following:

    const users = await prisma.user.findRaw({
        filter: {
            _id: { $eq: { $oid: "6202ec178be26d2b28adc075" } },
        },
    })

@janpio yes thats correct! even if i try searching by other fields (ie. not the id field) i still cannot get results back…

@matthewmueller yes! we are working with the collections created by the MeteorJS framework. we’re relatively inexperienced with that framework, but from what i understand, MeteorJS does not use ObjectIDs for their id fields but instead uses an internal package meteor/random to generate the ids. its something to do with how they manage optimistic UI changes… this forum post touches on it: https://forums.meteor.com/t/using-mongos-random-ids-instead-of-meteors/17184/10
