Fulltext search

Hey guys,

is it possible to use a fulltext search? I am using back4app and created a text index (like mentioned in mongodb docs) but it seems that parse server doesn*t fully support this?

Want to search for something like this:
“Germany” and as a term “ger” but find me germany. To buildt some autocomplete stuff … Any idea?

“push”

What I am not understanding is, mongodb does offer this functionality with it’s indexes. Why we can’t use that inside of parse?

All other solutions like splitting works in arrays, search for that etc. doesn’t seem really straight forward.

Or am I wrong ?

Full text search are supported but it’s a heavy task. And can’t use indexes.

You should use startWith or equalTo operators

Text search is fully supported by Parse Server.

See this issue for an example of a MongoDB compound text index.
