LIKE operator not supported in arango search view

Question

Arango Search does not seem to support LIKE operator.
Other supported operators are working fine.

Tried this AQL:

FOR s IN searchView
SEARCH s.name LIKE "somesubstring"
RETURN s

But it gives an error saying:

Query: AQL: not implemented: Unable to evaluate loop variable 's' as a part of ArangoSearch noncompliant expression 'LIKE([$0.name,"somesubstring"])' (exception location: C:\vm04-windows\oskar\work\ArangoDB\arangod\IResearch\IResearchExpressionContext.cpp:62) (while executing) (exception location: C:\vm04-windows\oskar\work\ArangoDB\arangod\RestHandler\RestCursorHandler.cpp:298)

Referred this: https://docs.arangodb.com/3.11/aql/high-level-operations/search/

Other supported operators are working fine.

How do we achieve this in Arango search view?
LIKE operator or mimicking the same behavior.
