MongoDB SELECT COUNT GROUP BY

Question

I am playing around with MongoDB trying to figure out how to do a simple  SELECT province  COUNT    FROM contest GROUP BY province   But I can t seem to figure it out using the aggregate function  I can do it using some really weird group syntax  db user group        key              province   true             initial              count   0             reduce   function obj  prev            if  true    null  if  true instanceof Array  prev count    true length          else prev count                But is there an easier faster way using the aggregate function

Starting in MongoDB 3 4  you can use the  sortByCount aggregation      Groups incoming documents based on the value of a specified expression  then computes the count of documents in each distinct group    https   docs mongodb com manual reference operator aggregation sortByCount   For example   db contest aggregate          sortByCount    province

Additionally if you need to restrict the grouping you can use   db events aggregate         match   province   ON           group    id    date   number    sum  1
