Search Filter not working as expected

[Leo310]

Describe the bug

When I execute this code:

console.log('Filtering by sources', sources);
const results = await search(db, {
       where: {
            source: sources,
       },
       10000,
});
console.log('Got results', results);
}

I get the following console output:

As you can see the first hit in the results already has a different source attribute (value: "README.md") than the filter (value: "To Add.md").
The filter was completely ignored.

To Reproduce

1. Initialize Orama as follows:

const recordManagerSchema = {
    id: 'string',
    source: 'string',
    updated_at: 'number',
} as const;

const db = await create({
            schema: recordManagerSchema,
            id: "testdb",
            components: {
                tokenizer: {
                    stemming: true,
                    stemmerSkipProperties: ['id', 'source'],
                },
            },
        });

2. Insert some data into this db with different sources
3. execute the code I already provided in the bug description

Expected behavior

As you stated in your docs:

I expect to only get hits that include 'To Add.md' in their source attribute.

Hi, would you be able to provide a repro via replit/similar tool?

@micheleriva Here is the repro: https://replit.com/join/xnweszxeca-leodev310
I figured out that the filter doesn't match the exact entries of sources but on substrings of one entry.

I think in my previous example, "README.md" was a hit because it contained the ".md" substring. That's why every record was matching. Not sure if this is the intended behavior. If it is, is there another way to filter on exact matches?

The numeric filter also doesn't seem to work as expected:
For this code:

const before = 1705758397008;
console.log('Searching for entries indexed before', before, 'in Oramadb', db.data.docs);
const results = await search(await this.db, { where: { indexed_at: { lt: before } }, 100 });
console.log('Results', results);

I get this output:

where you can see that the indexed_at values of entries 21 and 22 are smaller than the value of before (1705757860535 < 1705758397008). But I also get no hits even though I am using the "lt" filter on indexed_at.
