I am having an array of objects -

[{ name: "Thing0", price: "0" }, { name: "Thing1", price: "1" }, { name: "Thing2", price: "2" }]

I want to know, if I could search, in the array, for a string, then return that object.
For example: I want to search for Thi. It should return all the objects whose name starting or having the letters - 'Thi'.
Is it possible ?
Thanks

You can basically filter the array, Ex: `arr.filter(x => x.name.contains("Thi"))`. (arr is your array in this example) – Engincan Veske Mar 01 '21 at 06:50

contains has been replaced by 'includes'. – Phymo Mar 01 '21 at 06:55
yes it is possible @mnh first match the string and then filter it `arr.filter(x => Object.keys(x).some(k => x[k].includes("Thi")))` – mondyfy Mar 01 '21 at 06:58

Thanks ! This worked -> `const result = array.filter((x) => x.name.includes("Thi"));` – Ajit Kumar Mar 01 '21 at 06:59
