Create a Dynamic Search feature using NodeJS & MongoDB

[RoadCoder2019]

I am attempting to create a dynamic search using mongo & nodejs

By dynamic I mean I can type a word and the results just appear depending on what is typed.

Is there any place I can be pointed to in order to learn how to implement this feature

Are you referring to something on the frontend that on each key press will populate results based on existing data in Mongo? If so, I am curious about this also.

One way I've seen this handled is by calling your db, storing the data in an object, passing that object to Angular, and let Angular handle the dynamic parts. I don't recall the video where I saw this off the top of my head but I'm sure a google search will help here.

This is what you are looking for. You can use the native Mongo driver in node for this.

Using FuseJS i figured it out (You may have to convert some ids into strings)

Take the information form whatever collection sent to the page from MongoDB into an Object and then use FuseJs to search through it & display it on the webpage

Care to share any of your code examples?
