Calling all Full-text Search Use Cases

Hey All,

Product for Realm here, we are interested in doing some user research on a full-text search feature for the Realm SDK. This would enable you to search for key words in documents of text to find a match - for instance, searching for motor compatibility and installation in a product’s user manual - even when offline! If you could help us answer some questions then we can look to add this to the product roadmap. If you could please email me at ian.ward@mongodb.com we can set up a time to quickly chat.

We have few thousand records stored on client side with data spread across a couple of tables referencing the main table. when we search, it should look at all the tables for data and if soundex option is there, it would be great

Platform - Xamarin.Forms, MongoDB Realm sync

We’re currently using elasticsearch on the backend to facilitate search. If it can be more or less a simple implementation of that, then I’d be interested.

John, elasticsearch implementation you mentioned, is it as an external service or built-in feature?

Sorry for the late reply. It’s a service that’s implemented on our back end.
