hi,

I want to query a keyword in all blocks, the keyword would look like “book.”, “book,”, “book<” i.e. it followed by signs.

I tried follow code, but not working …

#+BEGIN_QUERY
{:title [:h3 "query for keywords"]
 :query [:find (pull ?b [*])
         :where
         [?b :block/content ?text]
         (or
          [(clojure.string/includes? ?text "book[.,<]")]
)]}
#+END_QUERY

pls help how to make it in regex?

thank you

There are many regex examples in the forum (e.g. this one). They use re-pattern and re-find.

hi mentaloid,

thank you for your reference, after some tryings, the code below is working for my purpose:

#+BEGIN_QUERY
{:title [:h3 "query for keywords"]
 :query [:find (pull ?b [*])
         :where
         [(str "book[.,<]") ?regexp]
         [(re-pattern ?regexp) ?pattern]
         [?b :block/content ?content]
         [(re-find ?pattern ?content)]
]}
#+END_QUERY
