Buildfire - Using regex in search -


i have been looking @ documentation can't seem figure out how correctly create filter object buildfire.datastore.search query.

i have address property on object , want able type in partial amount of address , have return. below filter objects have tried pass search query:

search = {filter: {"$json.address": {"$regex": `/${this.state.search}/`}}};  search = {filter: {'$regex': {'$json.address': this.state.search}}}; 

neither have worked. end goal is:

buildfire.datastore.search(search, 'location', cb); 

edit:

i tried hardcode regex in docs:

"$or" : [   {"description": {"$regex":"/new /"}} ] 

and didn't work (i replaced 'new' string knew show).

i inserted following on control side:

for(let = 0 ; < 50 ; i++) {     buildfire.datastore.insert({         name: "address" +         ,address: + " " + (i % 2 ? "main ":"4th ") + (i % 3 ? "ave":"st" )     },function(){}); } 

then did search on widget side this:

<body> <input type="text" id="criteria" /><button onclick="search()">search</button> <div id="results"></div> <script>     function search(){         var cri = document.getelementbyid("criteria").value;          buildfire.datastore.search( {filter:{"$json.name": {"$regex": cri  }  } } , function(err,results){             document.getelementbyid("results").innerhtml = json.stringify(results);         });     } </script> </body> 

works fine. given if want search more complex need modify regex statement example case insensitivity.

hope helps
