Which field the result comes from? #241

Closed lucasradix closed 4 years ago

lucasradix commented 6 years ago

I have a model with three textFields: title, description and sideText. One of the objects of this model is filled as: title = 'Hello' description = 'Hello everybody' sideText = 'Welcome'

When I search for 'Hello', my result array has only one object with the 'content' attribute containing 'Hello Hello Everybody' (concatenation of title + description'). How can I get which model fields 'Hello' was found? That is, is there an array attribute, or something like this, in the result object containing 'title' and 'description'?

Thank you.

You cannot get which fields the match was found in. The searchable text is concatenated by watson and put in a large full text index for efficient search. This means that the informatino you're after is lost.
