$group with doc in mongodb code example

Example 1: mongodb aggregate group

#equivalent of the following SQL instruction:
# SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Table
# GROUP BY your_field
query = db.collection.aggregate([
    { 
        "$group": {
            "_id": "$your_field", #GROUP BY your_field
            "total": {"$sum":1}   #COUNT(*)
        }
    }

     $group : { _id : "$author", books: { $push: "$$ROOT" } }
   },

   {
     $addFields:
       {

       }
