Selecting fields from mongodb query

Question

var users = db.users.find({});

User has: _id, name, age.

I am trying to print the users so i can see their data, but when i console.log(users) it prints:

Query {
  _mongooseOptions: {},
  _transforms: [],
  _hooks: Kareem { _pres: Map {}, _posts: Map {} },
  _executionCount: 0,
  mongooseCollection: ...
...

Is is possible any way so i can console something like this: console.log(users[0]).['name'] so i can see the name of the first element in the array of users? I tried to JSON.parse(users) but it raises an error.

Use await or fn like

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/await

db.users.find({},function (err, data) {
        console.log(err,data)
    });

Try this.

db.users.find({},{name:1},function (err, usersdata) {
    usersdata.forEach(function(user){
        console.log(user.name)
    });
});
