How do I query mongodb with “like”?

SQL Server like used “%” operator but in mongodb used “.*” operator.

In the below example, I am looking for something that contains “ak” as string.

Query 1: db.customers.find({"name": /.*ak.*/})

Query 2: db.customers.find({"name": /ak/})

We can also use regex, the example look like below.

db.customers.find({ "name": { $regex: /ak/i } })

db.customers.find({"name": /^ak/})

db.customers.find({'name': {'$regex': 'ak'}})
