VistasHow to perform mongoose deleteMany() with query operators?
I want to delete X number of posts starting from the most recently created for a specific user.
How can I apply this logic using mongoose so that I can perform just ONE database operation instead of first having to query for these posts and remove them one by one?
I am finding using the query and projection operators with the $ very confusing, any help would be appreciated.
Below I added pseudo code on how it should to work.
Thank you!
const userId = "123456"
const deleteCount = 6
const deletedPosts = await Post.deleteMany({
.where { userid == userId) }
.sort({createdAt: -1}) // delete by most recent
.limit(deleteCount) // only delete 6 (most recent) posts
}, {new: true}) // return results of operation
console.log(deletedPosts.deletedCount) // -> should be "6"

You can't set a limit when using deleteMany or findAndModify. So, if you want to precisely limit the number of documents removed, you'll need to do it in two steps.
db.getCollection('users').find({}, {class : 4}) .limit(2) .sort({StudentAge: -1}) .toArray() .map(function(doc) { return doc._id; }); //returns the array of id'sdb.getCollection('users').deleteMany({_id: {$in: [ "s3", "s4" ]}})//put the array of id's
