How can I make a general search into a table using pipes in Angular? I have this working snippet, but the value of i is only 0, and I don't know why (and because of that, it will only search for name column only, if I type cc it won't find anything).

How can I modify the code in order to obtain what I want? Thank you for your time!

filter.pipe.ts

transform(value: any, input: string) {

    if (!value) {

      return ;

    }

    if (!input) {

      return value;

    }

    var valuesArr = 

    if (input) {

      input = input.toLowerCase();

      return value.filter(function (el: any) {

        valuesArr = Object.keys(el).map(key => el[key]);

        for (var i in valuesArr) {

          return valuesArr != null && valuesArr[i] != null && valuesArr[i] != undefined && valuesArr[i].toLowerCase().indexOf(input) > -1;

        }

      })

    }

    return value;

  }

app.html

<input type="text" [(ngModel)]="toSearch" (click)="onClick(toSearch)">



<table>

  <thead>

    <tr>

      <th>Name</th>

      <th>Surname</th>

      <th>Group</th>

    </tr>

  </thead>

  <tbody>

    <tr *ngFor="let user of users | filter : toSearch">

      <td>{{ user.name }}</td>

      <td>{{ user.surname }}</td>

      <td>{{ user.group }}</td>

    <tr>

  </tbody>

</table>

app.ts

  toSearch



  users = [

    {name: "john", surname: "john1", group: null},

    {name: "mike", surname: "", group: 'bb'},

    {name: "anne", surname: "anne1", group: ''},

    {name: "dan", surname: "dan1", group: 'cc'},

    {name: "ben", surname: "", group: 'a'},

  ]



  onClick(toSearch) {

    this.toSearch = toSearch

  }

Simple just check when your match is true only then send it through

import { Pipe, PipeTransform, Injectable } from '@angular/core';



@Pipe({

  name: 'filter',

})

@Injectable()

export class CheckBoxPipe implements PipeTransform {

  transform(value: any, input: string) {



    if (!value) {

      return ;

    }

    if (!input) {

      return value;

    }

    var values = 

    if (input) {

      input = input.toLowerCase();

      return value.filter(function (el: any) {

        values = Object.keys(el).map(key => el[key]);

        let result = false;

        for (var i in values) {

          result = values != null && values[i] != null && values[i] != undefined && values[i].toLowerCase().indexOf(input) > -1;

          if(result){

            return true

          }

        }

        return false;

      })

    }

    return value;

  }

}

Using ES6 operators I suggest also :

transform(value: any, input: string) {

    if (!value) {

      return ;

    }

    if (!input) {

      return value;

    }

    var valuesArr = 

    if (input) {

      console.log(input)

      input = input.toLowerCase();

      return value.filter( (el: any) => {

        valuesArr = Object.keys(el).map(key => el[key]);

        return valuesArr.some((elm)=> {

           if (JSON.stringify(elm).includes(input)) {

             return elm;

           }

           return null;

        })

      })

    }

    return value;

  }
