MongoDB – skip() method

MongoDB skip() Method

Use skip() method to skip a number of documents. It works MongoDB find() method.

Syntax:

db.COLLECTION_NAME.find().limit(NUMBER).skip(NUMBER)

Example

For example you have 10 documents you collection users. Now get the 2 documents after 5 documents. Like you need to get 6’th and 7’th documents from the collection.

db.users.find().limit(2).skip(5)

The above query will skin first 5 documents from the collection and then show 2 documents.
