Phrase Match Problem in Typesense Version 0.24.0rcn25

TLDR Robert was unsure about correct phrase match usage in Typesense. After providing Kishore Nallan with necessary data, Kishore Nallan was able to replicate the issue. Robert shared a Github link for further tracking, where Kishore Nallan responded later.

Heya. Running 0.24.0rcn25 and I'm not sure I'm doing "phrase match" correctly. Download phraseMatchFiles.zip then extract it, create data dir, run server, create schema and import doc:

mkdir data
typesense-server --data-dir=./data --api-address=127.0.0.1 --api-port=8108 --peering-address=127.0.0.1 --api-key=TESTCASEKEY
curl "" -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "X-TYPESENSE-API-KEY: TESTCASEKEY" -d '{"name" : "twig", "fields" : [{ "name" : "content", "type" : "string", "optional" : true }] }'
curl "" -X POST -H "X-TYPESENSE-API-KEY: TESTCASEKEY" --data-binary @"singledoc.jsonl"

Then perform search:

curl --silent "" -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "X-TYPESENSE-API-KEY: TESTCASEKEY" --data-binary @"searchTest.json"

It returns 1 hit, but I was expecting ZERO hits, because in the content the words "frontier mail" do not appear together. I see that according to highlight.meta.content.matched_tokens it only matched on "mail".

Am I not correctly doing phrase match properly? Is there an additional setting or flag I need to set?

Cool beans. Let me know if you'd like me to submit this in a github issue instead. I wasn't sure if it was a bug or if I was doing something incorrectly.

I decided to submit this as a github issue: https://github.com/typesense/typesense/issues/779
Just so it's easier to track going forward as slack isn't super ideal for longer term type issue tracking.

Thanks, I've responded on the issue with details on what is happening here.
