Return query based on date in MongoDB?

To return query based on the date in MongoDB, let us take an example.

To understand the concept, let us create a collection with the document. The query to create a collection with a document is as follows −

> db.returnQueryFromDate.insertOne({"PassengerName":"John","PassengerAge":23,"PassengerArrivalTime":new ISODate("2018-03-10 14:45:56")});
{
   "acknowledged" : true,
   "insertedId" : ObjectId("5c8a57be9064dcd4a68b70e4")
}
> db.returnQueryFromDate.insertOne({"PassengerName":"Larry","PassengerAge":21,"PassengerArrivalTime":new ISODate("2018-05-19 11:10:23")});
{
   "acknowledged" : true,
   "insertedId" : ObjectId("5c8a57bf9064dcd4a68b70e5")
}
> db.returnQueryFromDate.insertOne({"PassengerName":"Mike","PassengerAge":24,"PassengerArrivalTime":new ISODate("2018-08-25 16:40:12")});
{
"acknowledged" : true,
"insertedId" : ObjectId("5c8a57bf9064dcd4a68b70e6")
}
>db.returnQueryFromDate.insertOne({"PassengerName":"Carol","PassengerAge":26,"PassengerArrivalTime":new ISODate("2019-01-29 09:45:10")});
{
"acknowledged" : true,
"insertedId" : ObjectId("5c8a57bf9064dcd4a68b70e7")
}

Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method. The query is as follows −

> db.returnQueryFromDate.find().pretty();

The following is the output −

{
   "_id" : ObjectId("5c8a57be9064dcd4a68b70e4"),
   "PassengerName" : "John",
   "PassengerAge" : 23,
   "PassengerArrivalTime" : ISODate("2018-03-10T14:45:56Z")
}
{
   "_id" : ObjectId("5c8a57bf9064dcd4a68b70e5"),
   "PassengerName" : "Larry",
   "PassengerAge" : 21,
   "PassengerArrivalTime" : ISODate("2018-05-19T11:10:23Z")
}
{
   "_id" : ObjectId("5c8a57bf9064dcd4a68b70e6"),
   "PassengerName" : "Mike",
   "PassengerAge" : 24,
   "PassengerArrivalTime" : ISODate("2018-08-25T16:40:12Z")
}
{
   "_id" : ObjectId("5c8a57bf9064dcd4a68b70e7"),
   "PassengerName" : "Carol",
   "PassengerAge" : 26,
   "PassengerArrivalTime" : ISODate("2019-01-29T09:45:10Z")
}

Here is return query based on date. The records with a date greater than 2018-05-19T11:10:23Z will be displayed −

> db.returnQueryFromDate.find({"PassengerArrivalTime" : { $gte : new ISODate("2018-05-19T11:10:23Z") }}).pretty();

The following is the output −

{
   "_id" : ObjectId("5c8a57bf9064dcd4a68b70e5"),
   "PassengerName" : "Larry",
   "PassengerAge" : 21,
   "PassengerArrivalTime" : ISODate("2018-05-19T11:10:23Z")
}
{
   "_id" : ObjectId("5c8a57bf9064dcd4a68b70e6"),
   "PassengerName" : "Mike",
   "PassengerAge" : 24,
   "PassengerArrivalTime" : ISODate("2018-08-25T16:40:12Z")
}
{
   "_id" : ObjectId("5c8a57bf9064dcd4a68b70e7"),
   "PassengerName" : "Carol",
   "PassengerAge" : 26,
   "PassengerArrivalTime" : ISODate("2019-01-29T09:45:10Z")
}
