MongoDB query to skip n first documents?
To skip a specific number of documents, use skip() along with limit. Let us create a collection with documents −
> db.demo246.insertOne({"StudentFirstName":"Chris","StudentLastName":"Brown"}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e46b0d71627c0c63e7dba65") } > db.demo246.insertOne({"StudentFirstName":"John","StudentLastName":"Doe"}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e46b0e21627c0c63e7dba66") } > db.demo246.insertOne({"StudentFirstName":"John","StudentLastName":"Smith"}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e46b0ea1627c0c63e7dba67") } > db.demo246.insertOne({"StudentFirstName":"Carol","StudentLastName":"Taylor"}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e46b0f91627c0c63e7dba68") }
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.demo246.find();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e46b0d71627c0c63e7dba65"), "StudentFirstName" : "Chris", "StudentLastName" : "Brown" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e46b0e21627c0c63e7dba66"), "StudentFirstName" : "John", "StudentLastName" : "Doe" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e46b0ea1627c0c63e7dba67"), "StudentFirstName" : "John", "StudentLastName" : "Smith" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e46b0f91627c0c63e7dba68"), "StudentFirstName" : "Carol", "StudentLastName" : "Taylor" }
Following is the query in MongoDB to skip n first documents −
> db.demo246.find().skip(2).limit(1);
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e46b0ea1627c0c63e7dba67"), "StudentFirstName" : "John", "StudentLastName" : "Smith" }
