Querying

Querying is an important area of interacting with a database.

Note

The following only applies if you are using @kennydude’s version

To query the database you use the model.find() method from the Model Class

A simple = operation can be done like so:

model.find( { "field" : "value" })

Operators

To use more than a straightforward = or in operator you use a slightly different syntax like so:

model.find({
        field : { "operator" : "value" }
});

Those operators are:

Operator	Values to use operator
Equals	=
Less Than	<, “less than”
Less Than or Equal to	<=, “less than or equal to”
More than	>, “more than”
More than or equal to	>=, “more than or equal to”

If you want to use IN you present a list of values which is done like so:

mode.find({
        field : [ "item 1", "item 2" ]
})
