How to sort and limit the returned query results in mongoose

Project: codever - File: personal-bookmarks.service.js

Use the sort and limit methods. In the following example we receive the latest 30 (limit) created bookmarks (sort descending by createdAt date) :

let getLastCreatedBookmarks = async (userId) => {
  const bookmarks = await Bookmark.find({userId: userId})
    .sort({createdAt: -1}) // -1 for descending sort
    .limit(30);

  return bookmarks;
};
