How to find items using regex in Mongoose [duplicate]
mongoose doc for find.
mongodb doc for regex.
var Person = mongoose.model('Person', yourSchema); // find each person with a name contains 'Ghost' Person.findOne({ "name" : { $regex: /Ghost/, $options: 'i' } }, function (err, person) { if (err) return handleError(err); console.log('%s %s is a %s.', person.name.first, person.name.last, person.occupation); });Note the first argument we pass to mongoose.findOne function. "{ "name" : { $regex: /Ghost/, $options: 'i' } }". "name" is the field of the document you are searching. "Ghost" is the regular expression. "i" is for case insensitive match. Hope this will help you.
