Custom search filtering algorithm

[negezor]

Can we implement a custom search filtering algorithm? I would like to use fuzzy search, however this is not the only possible filtering option.

As far as I understand, changes need to be made here. And apparently we could normalize search.value once.

multiselect/src/composables/useOptions.js

Lines 514 to 520 in 50ea5dc

	if (search.value && filterResults.value) {
	fo = fo.filter((option) => {
	return searchStart.value
	? normalize(option[trackBy.value], strict.value).startsWith(normalize(search.value, strict.value))
	: normalize(option[trackBy.value], strict.value).indexOf(normalize(search.value, strict.value)) !== -1
	})
	}

Added searchFilter option to allow customised search algorithm in 2.6.0.

Could you provide example? This doesn't seem to be documented well.

It seems that this is done in the filterOptions function in useOptions composable.

    fo = fo.filter(filter)

Bummer, there's no current value of search input available, so you really have to implement everything yourself. I'll see if I can find some time for a PR. @adamberecz you think it's a good idea or isn't it an appreciated feature?
