The ObjectId of the document is basically contains timestamp. So you can easily construct ObjectId from timestamp and use $lt operator just like this (python code):


ObjectId


ObjectId


$lt


from bson.objectid import ObjectId
ts = datetime.datetime(2017, 1, 1)
doc_id = ObjectId.from_datetime(ts)
result = collection.find("_id": "$lt": doc_id)
