Search for entries that were posted in the previous month

Currently, I am working on a project with Meteor and have encountered a small issue. I believe that many of you may already have the solution.

In my setup, I am utilizing MongoDB.

My goal is to retrieve posts that were posted starting from the same date last month up until now.

For example:

today 3rd March

I specifically want posts that were posted between

3rd Feb to 3rd March

I have inserted a date field in the document as follows: 

var dat = new Date();

Is it possible to achieve this using the Date field alone, or do we need to store additional fields?

I am currently lacking ideas on how to accomplish this task.

Thank you in advance.

Answer №1

As stated in the official MongoDB documentation, you can use the following code snippet:

var end = new Date(); // current date
var start = new Date().setMonth(end.getMonth() - 1); // last month
db.posts.find({created_on: {$gte: start, $lt: end}});
