REST neq operator not working

[Partap Davis]

I'm trying to query for a list of "job" instances in which the status is not "done":

http://localhost:2564/api/jobs/count?where[status][neq]=done

But I'm getting:

{

• error: 

  {

  • name: "MongoError",
  • status: 500,
  • message: "exception: invalid operator: $neq",
  • stack: "MongoError: exception: invalid operator: $neq at Object.toError (/Users/partap/src/etr/mmlive/node_modules/loopback-connector-mongodb/node_modules/mongodb/lib/mongodb/utils.js:114:11) at /Users/partap/src/etr/mmlive/node_modules/loopback-connector-mongodb/node_modules/mongodb/lib/mongodb/db.js:1130:31 at /Users/partap/src/etr/mmlive/node_modules/loopback-connector-mongodb/node_modules/mongodb/lib/mongodb/db.js:1847:9 at Server.Base._callHandler (/Users/partap/src/etr/mmlive/node_modules/loopback-connector-mongodb/node_modules/mongodb/lib/mongodb/connection/base.js:445:41) at /Users/partap/src/etr/mmlive/node_modules/loopback-connector-mongodb/node_modules/mongodb/lib/mongodb/connection/server.js:478:18 at [object Object].MongoReply.parseBody (/Users/partap/src/etr/mmlive/node_modules/loopback-connector-mongodb/node_modules/mongodb/lib/mongodb/responses/mongo_reply.js:68:5) at [object Object].<anonymous> (/Users/partap/src/etr/mmlive/node_modules/loopback-connector-mongodb/node_modules/mongodb/lib/mongodb/connection/server.js:436:20) at [object Object].EventEmitter.emit (events.js:107:17) at [object Object].<anonymous> (/Users/partap/src/etr/mmlive/node_modules/loopback-connector-mongodb/node_modules/mongodb/lib/mongodb/connection/connection_pool.js:201:13) at [object Object].EventEmitter.emit (events.js:110:17) at Socket.<anonymous> (/Users/partap/src/etr/mmlive/node_modules/loopback-connector-mongodb/node_modules/mongodb/lib/mongodb/connection/connection.js:439:22) at Socket.EventEmitter.emit (events.js:107:17) at readableAddChunk (_stream_readable.js:159:16) at Socket.Readable.push (_stream_readable.js:126:10) at TCP.onread (net.js:514:20) ",

  }

}

The mongodb operator is actually called $ne, but if I use "[ne]", I just get 0 records back, when there are 26 records that should match...

In this case, I can get the desired result if I use the "nlike" operator, which I'm using right now as a workaround, but that seems wasteful, and might not always work...

Thanks,
