MongoDB equivalent of SQL "TOP" [closed]

Question

Select Top 10 a, b from users
equivalent sql query in MONGODB

As a part of jqgrid functionality to save the json data and retrieve json data from the DB, I needed this simple SQL query in MONGODB.

Answer 1

.limit()

Example:

db.things.find().limit(10)

As per the comment below, technically, you'd want to sort the collection too, so it would be:

db.things.find().sort({someField:1}).limit(10)
