Promise from aggregate() and find() with MongoDB driver for NodeJS

Question

I head and always read that MongoDB driver (>2.0) for NodeJS supports promises. But the only examples I find are with the connect() and findOne() functions. While it works for those and I can get promises, it doesn't with aggregate() nor with find(). I get that's because they might be returning cursors, but since there is promise support, where are those promises? There must be a way to work with them. A link, an example or simple explanation would be so welcome :)

Thank you, Jordy.

Answer 1

Chain the result from find() or aggregate() to .toArray(). The documentation of toArray for the current mongodb nodejs driver is here.
