i tried something like this in rails with mongoid 3.1.0 and lastest 3.1.3. .limit does not work. below it should return 1 row but it returns all (4)
code:
For Mongoid 5 the parameter of CollectionView#count
changed :
# Get a count of matching documents in the collection.
#
# @example Get the number of documents in the collection.
# collection_view.count
#
# @param [ Hash ] options Options for the count command.
#
# @option options :skip [ Integer ] The number of documents to skip.
# @option options :hint [ Hash ] Override default index selection and force
# MongoDB to use a specific index for the query.
# @option options :limit [ Integer ] Max number of docs to return.
# @option options :max_time_ms [ Integer ] The maximum amount of time to allow the
# command to run.
#
# @return [ Integer ] The document count.
#
# @since 2.0.0
So you can do something like
collection.count(limit: 1) # => 1
