How to use MongoRegex (MongoDB C# Driver)

Question

Has anyone have any idea how to use MongoRegex for the document search?

I attempted this, but returns nothing back:

var spec = new Document();
spec.A         


        

Answer 1

you just want a simple prefix query. Your regex is then ^ + searchKey. Also, this form will allow mongodb to use an index on Name.

var spec = new Document("Name", new MongoRegex(string.Format("^{0}",searchKey), "i"));
collection.Find(spec)
