$and inside $elemMatch not working in Meteor

Question

I have the following query

{
    lessen: {
        $not: {
            $elemMatch: {
                $and: [
                    {start: {$lt: new Date()}},
                    {eind: {$gt: new Date()}}
                ]
            }
        }
    }
}

This worked perfectly until I updated to Meteor 0.8. Now it throws Error: Unrecognized operator: $and. Does anyone know how to fix this?

I've got this issue too, but with $or. Any fixes? – macsj200 Aug 28 '15 at 18:45 — macsj200, Aug 28 '15 at 18:45

You don't need to use the $and operator in this case you can simply write the query like this:

{
    lessen: {
        $not: {
            $elemMatch: {
                start: {$lt: new Date()},
                eind: {$gt: new Date()}
            }
        }
    }
}

This isn't a good answer, the question asked how to use the $and operator, not how to refactor the code. – macsj200 Aug 28 '15 at 18:46
