NodeJS + MongoSkin + Timestamps

Question

There's a handful of posts on inserting timestamps into Mongodb via MongoSkin, but nothing on the return end (other than pulling date from ObjectID).

After running findOne (which includes a MongoDate field), console-log reads the data field as ISO date, but is there an internal function that pulls the ->sec / timestamp.

@BatScream that method works, but is there a method directly from MongoDB driver? — Michael Mikhjian, Dec 04 '14 at 19:59
You need to aggregate and project fields using the available date operators. - http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/operator/aggregation-date/ — BatScream, Dec 04 '14 at 20:01
@BatScream I wouldn't want to aggregate the data (via command), it should be a simple find query / cursor. — Michael Mikhjian, Dec 05 '14 at 05:34
