# Class yii\mongodb\file\ActiveQuery

Inheritance | yii\mongodb\file\ActiveQuery » yii\mongodb\file\Query » yii\mongodb\Query » yii\base\Component » yii\base\BaseObject
Implements | yii\base\Configurable, yii\db\ActiveQueryInterface, yii\db\QueryInterface
Uses Traits | yii\db\ActiveQueryTrait, yii\db\ActiveRelationTrait, yii\db\QueryTrait
Available since version | 2.0
Source Code | https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2-mongodb/blob/master/file/ActiveQuery.php

ActiveQuery represents a Mongo query associated with an file Active Record class.

ActiveQuery instances are usually created by yii\mongodb\file\ActiveRecord::find().

Because ActiveQuery extends from yii\mongodb\file\Query, one can use query methods, such as where(), orderBy() to customize the query options.

ActiveQuery also provides the following additional query options:

- with(): list of relations that this query should be performed with.
- asArray(): whether to return each record as an array.

These options can be configured using methods of the same name. For example:

    $images = ImageFile::find()->with('tags')->asArray()->all();
