RavenDB - Version 6.2 Now Live

RavenDB 4.1 FeaturesHighlighting

time to read 2 min | 238 words

This s actually an old feature, that didn’t make the cut to enter 4.0. This is now back, and it is roaring. This is the kind of feature that is useful if you are utilizing RavenDB’s search capabilities. Let us assume that you want to search for something, but instead of querying for “give me all the active users” you want to actually… search. For example, you want to search for all employees with a BA in their bio. However, you don’t want to just get the matches, you want to show the user why this was matches.

That is the problem that highlighting is meant to solve. Consider the following query:

Which returns the following results:

Why did we get this particular employees? Let’s find out:

Now we are asking the server to highlight for us the reason for the match. You can see this in the studio directly, in the Highlight tab:

Using this approach, you can enrich the search result and provide nicer experience for your users.
