Overview

A convenience constraint that combines greater-than-or-equal and less-than-or-equal constraints for date/time range queries. This is equivalent to using both $gte and $lte.

Find events between two dates

Event.where(:created_at.between_dates => [start_date, end_date])

Generates: "created_at": { "$gte": start_date, "$lte": end_date }
