I'm also building something on top of FTS5/sqlite-utils, and the way I decided to handle it was creating a specific function for prefixes. According to [the docs](https://www2.sqlite.org/fts5.html#fts5_prefix_queries), the query can be done in this 2 ways: ```sql ... MATCH '"one two thr" * ' ... MATCH 'one + two + thr*' ``` I thought I could build a query like the first one using this function: ```python def prefix(query: str): return f'"{query}" *' ``` And then I use the output of that function as the query parameter for the standard `.search()` method in sqlite-utils. However, my use case is different because I'm the one "deciding" when to use a prefix search, not the end user. I also haven't done many tests, but maybe you found that useful. One thing I could think of is checking if the query has an `*` at the end, remove it and build the prefix query using the function above. This is just for prefix queries, I think having the escaping function is still useful for other use cases. | {"total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} | 831751367 |
