This topic explains how to use wildcards ad the end of the searchterm using IndexedDB.
I am looking for a way to add a wildcard at the end AND at the start of the searchterm.
In SQL it would be: LIKE '%SearchTerm%'.
How can I achieve this with IndexedDB? Here is my code:
function getMaterials() {
var materialNumber = $("#input").val();
var transaction = db.transaction(["materials"]);
var objectStore = transaction.objectStore("materials");
var request = objectStore.openCursor(IDBKeyRange.bound(materialNumber, materialNumber + '\uffff'), 'prev');
$("#output").find("tr:gt(0)").remove();
request.onsuccess = function (event) {
var cursor = event.target.result;
if (cursor) {
var newRow = '<tr><td>'+ cursor.value.materialNumber +'</td>'+
'<td>'+ cursor.value.description +'</td>'+
'<td>'+ cursor.value.pieces +'</td>'+
'<td>'+ cursor.value.price +'</td></tr>';
$('#output').append(newRow);
cursor.continue();
}
};
};
EDIT:
I could achieve this by letting indexDB return all rows and then narrow down in JavaScript. But there must be a better approach in terms of performance.
if (cursor.value.materialNumber.indexOf(materialNumber) != -1){
//add result...
}
