Search per named field (Github issue search style)

[jwillp]

Hi, I was wondering if it was possible to make searches using named fields in a similar fashion to the GIthub Issue Search:

Given:

doc: {
    id: "id",
    field: [
      "title",
      "content",
      "assignee"
    ]
}

With an indexed document like:

{
    id: "1",
    title: "An Issue"
    content: "Content of an Issue",
    assignee: "John"
}

To be able to do a query like so:

title:"An Issue" assignee:"John"

Is there a way out of the box something like this?

Thank you!

I think for this you would use multiple query and bool: 'and'

This would be great to have.

For comparison, Lunr supports this query syntax: https://lunrjs.com/guides/searching.html

Please change over to the version >= 0.7.x which has support for this, thanks a lot.

This sounds great! This will enable us to switch to flexsearch. Is there documentation about the supported search syntax?
