Support MongoDB collation #4883
Description
Hi,
Being able to use collation with Parse.Query (as a param of find or aggregate for instance) would be great for case insensitive searches.
What do you think about it ?
For now, I'll use the rawCollection using the 'not so internal' Config :)
Thx,
Olivier

@oallouch we already added additional options for the queries like the read preference. Collation would be in the same style. Do you have any documentation from mongodb?
oallouch commentedon Jul 27, 2018
Of course
For standard queries:
https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/method/cursor.collation/
For the aggregation framework (search 'collation' on this page)
https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/method/db.collection.aggregate/

Any news on this one ?

hi @oallouch I got started on a related solution this past summer
to solve what I think is a bad and annoying shortcoming of parse: usernames and emails are case-sensitive in a way that they shouldn't be (see: #3990).
I haven't gotten the solution over the finish line, and your use-case may require us to rethink how I planned going about it. I'd love some help with finishing it (@dplewis :). But I haven't gotten any takers yet.

Maybe all I need is an option parameter so that I can pass any mongo option to the native driver.
It's what I do now when I directly use the driver's collection.

@acinader Sorry dropped the ball on that one. I was waiting for you to right a test.
@oallouch You are right. Feel free to open a PR. There are a lot of options like ReadPreference that get passed into mongo with the same style.
We are here to help. I’ll assign this to myself but I wont be able to get to it for a while.
oallouch commentedon Jan 11, 2020
@dplewis ok, I'll try when I have more time.
dplewis commentedon Jan 12, 2020
I’ll race you lol.
