Summary

This method is a filtering join that filters based on whether the join exists or not but doesn't add any columns.

Parameters
rightPlan The row set from the right view.

The library functions for building the existsJoin parameters are as follows:

const op = require('/MarkLogic/optic');

const p1 = op.fromLiterals([
    {'r1':1, 'k1':'a'},
    {'r1':2, 'k1':'b'}
  ]);
const p2 = op.fromLiterals([
    {'r2':3, 'k2':'a'},
    {'r2':4, 'k2':'c'}
  ]);
p1.existsJoin(p2, op.on('k1', 'k2')).result();
