mongoose $regex on object or nested document

Question

const AdressSchema = new Schema(
  {
    title: {
      type: String,
      required: true,
    },
    location: {
      type: Object,
      required: true,
    },
})

location is where I want to find any matching expression

this is how I do it but returns empty result

async get() {
   return this.Model.find($or: [{ title: { $regex: regex } },{location: { $regex: regex } }])
  }

Answer 1

Regular expressions match strings.

MongoDB query language operators are type sensitive.

type: Object is not a string.

Therefore the $regex operator will never match a location .
