Answer 1

try below:

var temp_datetime_obj = new Date();

collection.find({
    start_date:{
        $gte: new Date(temp_datetime_obj.toISOString())
    }
}).toArray(function(err, items) { 
    /* you can console.log here */ 
});

Answer 2

I solved this problem instantiating a new Date object in node.js:...

In Javascript, send the Date().toISOString() to nodejs:...

var start_date = new Date(2012, 01, 03, 8, 30);

$.ajax({
    type: 'POST',
    data: { start_date: start_date.toISOString() },
    url: '/queryScheduleCollection',
    dataType: 'JSON'
}).done(function( response ) { ... });

Then use the ISOString to create a new Date object in nodejs:..

exports.queryScheduleCollection = function(db){
    return function(req, res){

        var start_date = new Date(req.body.start_date);

        db.collection('schedule_collection').find(
            { start_date: { $gte: start_date } }
        ).toArray( function (err,d){
            ...
            res.json(d)
        })
    }
};

Note: I'm using Express and Mongoskin.

Answer 3

This worked for me:

var start = new Date("2020-10-15T00:00:00.000+0000");
 //or
start = new date("2020-10-15T00:00:00.000Z");

collection.find({
    start_date:{
        $gte: start
    }
})...etc

new Date(2020,9,15,0,0,0,0) may lead to wrong date: i mean non ISO format (remember javascript count months from 0 to 11 so it's 9 for october)

Answer 4

In node, the Mongo driver will give you an ISO string, not the object. (ex: Mon Nov 24 2014 01:30:34 GMT-0800 (PST)) So, simply convert it to a js Date by: new Date(ISOString);

Answer 5

Try using the ISO string

var isodate = new Date().toISOString()
