parse.com Does parse queries support other languages (such as chinese characters)

Question

I am developing an ios-Application with parse.com, but it seems that the queries does not support chinese characters .

For example:

let query = PFQuery(className: "User")
query.whereKey("username", equalTo: "你好")

does not find any results even though the username is indeed in the database.

Is there a way to support query for different lanaguges? Or maybe use query.whereKey(regexMatch) ?

Another workaround i can think of is write my own javascript cloud code to support chinese query.

Answer 1

After playing with it I figured out the way is to use regex match:

query.whereKey("userName", matchesRegex: searchText, modifiers: "i")
