I have a simple list and I am trying to create a search filter for this, you enter a keyword and it goes through the function and re-sorts this data list to show only ones that apply to the keyword
list: [
{name: "Apple"},
{name: "Grape"}
]
var list = [
{name: "Apple"},
{name: "Grape"}
];
var filtered = list.filter(function(o){
return o.name == "Apple";
});
ili is right, Array.prototype.filter() is the good way but it would be much better with a String.prototype.includes() too, because the current answer can only works if the person type exactly the good word. Here is an implementation more user-friendly :
list = [
{name: "Apple"},
{name: "Grape"}
]
input = "app"
filtered = list.filter(element => {
if(element.name.toLowerCase().includes(input.toLowerCase())) {
return element
}
})
console.log(filtered)
