Im trying to produce a query from what the user has searched for. I have an array of strings which i just want to send through in the mongoDB selector, my problem is with the /text/ syntax, it works perfectly from the mongoDB console like this: Items.find({ $or: [{name: /doc/}, {tags: /doc/}, {name: /test/}, {tags: /test/}] }); But i cannot manage to write the same syntax in javascript, i've tried several version. var mongoDbArr = []; searchArray.forEach(function(text) { mongoDbArr.push({name: /text/}); mongoDbArr.push({tags: /text/}); }); return Items.find({ $or: mongoDbArr}); But it only searches for "text" and not whats in the variable. And like this: var mongoDbArr = []; searchArray.forEach(function(text) { mongoDbArr.push({name: "/" + text + "/"}); mongoDbArr.push({tags: "/" + text + "/"}); }); return Items.find({ $or: mongoDbArr}); But that doesn't give me any results back. What am i missing?
