MongoDB: Is it possible to make a case-insensitive query?

Question

Example:

> db.stuff.save({\"foo\":\"bar\"});

> db.stuff.find({\"foo\":\"bar\"}).count();
1
> db.stuff.find({\"foo\":\"BAR\"}).count();
0
         


        

Answer 1

Use RegExp, In case if any other options do not work for you, RegExp is a good option. It makes the string case insensitive.

var username = new RegExp("^" + "John" + "$", "i");;

use username in queries, and then its done.

I hope it will work for you too. All the Best.
