enable full text searh by saving doc url rather then saving document directly in the mongodb

[shikha nirankari]

Hello All,
Can we enable full text content searching in mongodb where we save document url like https://firstdocteststorage.blob.core.windows.net/32a2oovw9v in the db rather then saving the document only.


Thanks in advance

So if I understand correctly, you would like to store the URL from an article/document/blog in MongoDB, but have full content searching abilities? Even when the content of the article/blog/document was changed after the URL was added to the database?

I am not a MongoDB expert at all. In fact, I have no experience at all with MongoDB. But my common sense tells me that's probably not gonna work for a variety of reasons. Probably the most important one is performance: if you execute a search query all these documents need to be fetched in order to be able to do a full text search. That would result in very, very, very slow searching. So why are you interested in this functionality?

That makes sense because I didn't share any link

Hi Roel,
it is possible and will not even slow down the performance.

fulltext search can be done at db level with saving docs in the db only rather in elasticsearch which will infact give better performance.

But this scenario is different from the one you have described in your original post: you want to save the document URL instead of the actual document content and still have a full text search. So either I have misunderstood your question (although you have confirmed that was what you are looking for) or you have changed the requirements for one (or more) reasons.
