Is exact match hard to implement?

👋 Can you elaborate or give me more context?

We use the

num_typos

on a query for exact matching. So you can just set it to 0 for an exact. You can also set different levels of typos per property you search on. See more on the arguments section here: https://typesense.org/docs/0.21.0/api/documents.html#search

There is also

prioritize_exact_match

option, which is by default true so already matches at the top of the results should be exact.

Thanks, I was referring to phrase match actually,

"foo bar" baz

That's on our short term road map.

Great, thanks. It's a feature I use all the time with algolia

I know, really want to support it soon.
