docs-node's Issues

Docs lack expamples, can't find solutions easily, not beginner friendly

How would i know what sharding is, what application is, what replication is?
are you writing docs for yourself or for someone else who'll come to learn the technology?
it doesn't look like it's written for someone who's landed on the docs to learn it on his own.
there's only one way to learn it and to become familiar with mongodb is by going through the docs entirely at once.

i'm tryna search my collection whenever user types an input and return whatever matches that specific part of the string (let say i wanna get all the users whose name starts with 'a', i can't find anything working, only a word matches and returns the result, when searched using a character string, i get nothing.

getProfiles: async (
    _: any,
    { search, skip }: { search: string; skip: number },
    { users }: any
  ) => {
    await users.createIndex({name: 'text', email: 'text', state: 'text', country: 'text', _id: 'text'})
    return await users.find({$text: {$search: `/${search}/`}}).skip(skip).limit(15).toArray();
  }

i'm using nodejs-driver:

"mongodb": "^4.5.0",
"node": "18.2.0"

404 error for all pages (except index)

I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong but for some reason the api docs all lead to 404s.

Edit: for 4.1 it works fine, but all the sources link to 4.0

Googling for "mongodb node driver insertone" will bring the user to a 404 page.

This issue originates with what Google is indexing for the top result, but probably because something got moved, the first result when I (and maybe most people) search "mongodb node driver insertone" links to https://docs.mongodb.com/drivers/node/usage-examples/insertOne/.

The actual article the user is looking for is https://docs.mongodb.com/drivers/node/current/usage-examples/insertOne/. The difference here being current in the path.

- https://docs.mongodb.com/drivers/node/usage-examples/insertOne/
+ https://docs.mongodb.com/drivers/node/current/usage-examples/insertOne/

It may be worthwhile to add a redirect in your docs code from https://docs.mongodb.com/drivers/node/* to https://docs.mongodb.com/drivers/node/current/*.
