To filter a query on specific date format, use $dateToString. Let us create a collection with documents −
> db.demo433.insertOne({"DueDate":new Date("2019-11-23")}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e771278bbc41e36cc3cae91") } > db.demo433.insertOne({"DueDate":new Date("2020-01-03")}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e771290bbc41e36cc3cae92") }
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.demo433.find();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e771278bbc41e36cc3cae91"), "DueDate" : ISODate("2019-11-23T00:00:00Z") } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e771290bbc41e36cc3cae92"), "DueDate" : ISODate("2020-01-03T00:00:00Z") }
Following is the query to filter a query on specific date format in MongoDB −
> db.demo433.aggregate([ ... { $addFields: {stringDate: { $dateToString: { format: "%Y-%m-%d", date: "$DueDate" } } } }, ... { $match: {"stringDate":"2020-01-03"}}, ... { $project:{"stringDate":0}} ... ])
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e771290bbc41e36cc3cae92"), "DueDate" : ISODate("2020-01-03T00:00:00Z") }
