U kunt dit vrij eenvoudig doen op de documentpagina Mongo Extended JSON
(wat vrij goed verborgen is) kun je een tabel vinden die beschrijft hoe mongo extended datatypes in JSON kunnen worden weergegeven. Zoals u waarschijnlijk weet, zijn de eerste 4 bytes van ObjectId de tijdstempel vertegenwoordigen, wordt deze rechtstreeks toegewezen aan 8 eerste tekens in de hexadecimale tekenreeks. Het volgende zou dus moeten werken:
[email protected]:~$ mongoexport -d so_test -c example -q '{"_id" : {"$gt" : {"$oid" : "4fad36290000000000000000"}}}'
connected to: 127.0.0.1
{ "_id" : { "$oid" : "4fad3629a8bbba98829d5c1e" }, "a" : "bar", "b" : 2 }
{ "_id" : { "$oid" : "4fad362ea8bbba98829d5c1f" }, "a" : "baz", "b" : 3 }
