12/13/2021, 4:35 PMHi @Jason Bosco @Kishore Nallan, we are using algolia angular instantsearch via TypesenseInstantSearchAdapter.
In our collection we have facet field "uri", i am trying to find exact match "estg-9" in this field, but instead i get results like "estg-91", "estg-92","estg-9a", etc. Is there any way to get exact matches?

12/14/2021, 9:39 AMHi @Jason Bosco @Kishore Nallan,your advice helped me, also i have question:
I have uri like: "estg-9" , and now with turned off prefix i can find this exact match entering "estg-9", but how can i configure search to also find this "estg-9" by entering for example "9 estg" or "estg 9" ?

12/20/2021, 12:00 PMHi @Kishore Nallan @Jason Bosco we added "-" as separator, now when i want to find "estg-9" and i typing "estg 9" or "9 estg" i don't get this exact match, instead i get matched tokens like "9" or "9)". We search by several attributes, not only uri, is there any way to make query search for whole sentense and not to search by separate words?

12/20/2021, 12:03 PMIf you wish to support all these variations, you can index them as an array, like this:
["estg-9", "estg9", "9estg"]i

12/20/2021, 1:17 PM@Kishore Nallan one more question: what's the time plan for releasing 0.23 version with this "space as typo" feature?

12/20/2021, 1:18 PMWe've a beta build for you to test if you want. We generally take a call on release date only when we feel we have enough features/bug fixes to warrant a release.
