Storing date as Date in MongoDB

[PenPa0]

Hello!

Does FeathersJS have a way to store dates as Date instead of String in MongoDB? I'm trying to implement a date check and using the $gte and $lte queries, but the Dates are stored as String in MongoDB.

This is how I am currently storing them, as changing type: string to either type: Date / type: 'date' wont work.
createdAt: { type: 'string', format: 'date-time' }, updatedAt: { type: 'string', format: 'date-time' },
