Using like filter on text array

hi @ReverseHobo !

I believe this is what you are asking:

collection.data.insert({"text": "this is a test", "array": ["one", "two", "three"]})
collection.data.insert({"text": "this one test", "array": ["four", "five", "six"]})

# now we filter with like, or equal
collection.query.fetch_objects(
    filters=wvc.query.Filter.by_property("array").like("*ive")
).objects

collection.query.fetch_objects(
    filters=wvc.query.Filter.by_property("array").equal("four")
).objects

This is because everything will become a token. So you are not matching against a field (unless you specify the tokenization to field, more on tokenization here), but against tokens.

Let me know if this clarifies it.

Thanks!
