Querying for date using jongo driver for mongo

Question

I use jongo driver to connect to my mongoDB .

The syntax for querying - for ex, some age less than 18 - is

collection.find("{age: {$lt : 18}}");

but how to query for a date ?

In the mongoDB the date key value pair is stored like

{"date" : ISODate("2012-11-23T00:12:23.123Z")}

so I tried the following:

collection.find("{date: {$lt : ISODate(\"2012-11-23T00:13:00.000Z\")}}");

but I get this exception while running the java code :

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException

So I think, that dates are not to be plainly converted to the corresponding string, but the syntax to search using date is different.

Anybody with jongo knowledge who can help ?

Answer 1

使用java.util.Date是使用Jongo查询日期的标准方法：

collection.find("{date: {$lt : #}}", new Date(2012, 11, 30));

Answer 2

通过传递多个参数进行查询 -

jongoCollection.find("{date : { $gte : #, $lte : # }}", new Date(1234567890), new Date(1234567890))
