Accessing filtered/clipped data from a dc.js chart

Question

I'm new to dc.js.

I have some data:

var data =
[
        {date: Date.UTC(2015, 4, 4), frame: "frame1" },
        {date: Date.UTC(2015, 2, 1), frame: "frame2" },
        {date: Date.UTC(2015, 2, 11), frame: "frame3" },
        {date: Date.UTC(2015, 1, 4), frame: "frame4" },
];

//create crossfilter
    cf = crossfilter(data);
//create dimension
    byDate = cf.dimension(function (d) {
            return d.date; 
    });
//create group
    byDateGroup = byDate.group();

And I'm working with this dc.lineChart:

    //configure timeGraph
    timeGraph = dc.lineChart("#range")
    .width(document.body.clientWidth)
    .height(100)
    .dimension(byDate)
    .group(byDateGroup)
    .transitionDuration(500)
    .elasticY(true)
    .x(d3.time.scale().domain([(byDate.bottom(1))[0].date, (byDate.top(1))[0].date + 1000]))
    ;

And I would like to access the data that is filtered by the adjustable range selector bar. I think passing a function to onfiltered would work, but I don't know what to access from chart in order to return the currently filtered data.

    timeGraph.on("filtered", function (chart) {
     console.log(/* print the data filtered by the 'range selector' */);
});

Here's a JSFiddle with an example. If the example were to work correctly, everything being displayed by the table should show up in the console.

Thanks in advance.

Use the top method on the dimension. In the context of your fiddle, byDate.top(Infinity).
