title: Mongodb-Rest queries with like
body: <p>I am working with MongoDB 3.6.5 and Mongodb-rest (<a href="https://github.com/ashleydavis/mongodb-rest#installation" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/ashleydavis/mongodb-rest#installation</a>),</p>
  
  <p>I am trying to perform a "like" search and can do it via the mongo command line using: db.collection.find({"name" : /Smith/}); where I would search for all document that contain a "name" like "Smith".</p>
  
  <p>How would I translate this to an HTTP REST call. I am having some difficulty passing the "/" in my query.</p>
  
  <p>Any help or advice is appreciated.</p>
  
  <p>thanks in advance</p>
