Add full-text search to your application

You now know everything you need to add full-text search capabilities to your application.

Open up the code from the server file server/index.mjs once more, and edit the /search/:name endpoint to use full text search.

tip

You'll need to use the aggregate method instead of the find method you used earlier. Check out the documentation for more details.

Answer

app.get("/search/:name", async (req, res) => {
  const pipeline = [
    {
      $search: {
        index: "default",
        text: {
          query: "Mesi",
          path: "short_name",
          fuzzy: {
            maxEdits: 1,
          },
          score: {
            function: {
              add: [{ path: "overall" }, { score: "relevance" }],
            },
          },
        },
      },
    },
  ];
  const players = await collection.aggregate(pipeline).toArray();
  res.json(players).status(200);
});
