Apostrophe 2 v2.4.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2016-10-19 // over 7 years ago

  • ✅ All tests passing.

    ↪ Workarounds for two limitations in MongoDB that impact the use of Apostrophe cursors:

    • The addLateCriteria cursor filter has been introduced. This filter should be used only when you need to invoke $near or another MongoDB operator that cannot be used within $and. The object 🔀 you pass to addLateCriteria is merged with the criteria object that is built normally by the cursor. Use of this filter is strongly discouraged unless you must use operators that do 👍 not support $and.
    • Custom filters that invoke $near or other MongoDB operators that are incompatible with $text queries may call self.set('regexSearch', true) to force the cursor to use a regular expression search rather than full MongoDB full-text search, if and when the search() filter is called on the same cursor. This was implemented to allow combination of full-text and geographical searches, subject of course to the limitation that regular expression search is not indexed. It also doesn't sort by quality, but $near provides its own sort by distance.

    Since these are new features a minor version level bump is appropriate. However neither of these is a feature that a typical site developer will need to call directly.
