query first number of items after an id in mongoose?

Question

i am thinking of implementing a cursor based pagination and I think of encoding and decoding an id. is it possible to query like this in mongoose?

MyModel.find({ _id: 4 }).limit(10)

so basically after that id, you query for the next 10 items?

You can easily do it using

skip & limit

For Eg:

MyModel.find({ _id: 4 }).skip(0).limit(10)

MyModel.find({ _id: 4 }).skip(10).limit(10)

You can keep increasing the skip value by 10 and your pagination is done!
