unexpected wildcard behaviour in like/ilike operator [mongo]

[simnado]

by now querying entities with LIKE or iLIKE operator will always get the same results no matter if wildcards are set at the beginning or end. (e.g. {like: 'test'} and {like: '%test%'})

I would rather expect to get regex build with line anchors like escapeRegExp(^${String(val)}$).replace(/%/g, '.*') instead of:

nestjs-query/packages/query-mongoose/src/query/comparison.builder.ts

Line 100 in 8520f18

const regExpStr = escapeRegExp(`${String(val)}`).replace(/%/g, '.*')
