Description

Find all the people having a given name, using Model.find() -> [Person] In its simplest usage, Model.find() accepts a query document (a JSON object) as the first argument, then a callback. It returns an array of matches. It supports an extremely wide range of search options. Check it in the docs. Use the function argument personName as search key.
