Unable to search the word if there are special characters in it

[Vibhor Sharma]

Hi, I have the following array of objects: I want to search the word Powai (case insensitive). But when I search the word I am not getting the results with the word (Powai) with parenthesis. I have attached the code below the JSON. Please help.

[
{
      "id": 31,
      "name": "Powai",
    },
  {
      "id": 3474,
      "name": "Powai Chowk Mulund",
   },
  {
      "id": 3475,
      "name": "Powai Vihar Complex",
    },
  {
      "id": 2428,
      "name": "Forest Club Powai",
    },
  {
      "id": 2635,
      "name": "Hiranandani Powai Bus Station",
    },
  {
      "id": 3561,
      "name": "Ramda Hotel (Powai)",
    },
  {
      "id": 2244,
      "name": "Crisil House (Powai)",
    },

    },

  },

• match-sorter version: ^4.1.0
• node version: 12.14.0
• npm (or yarn) version: 6.14.4

Relevant code or config

matchSorter(options, inputValue, {
	keys: ["name"],
	threshold: rankings.WORD_STARTS_WITH,
	keepDiacritics: true,
});

[Kent C. Dodds]

This is because the threshold is set to rankings.WORD_STARTS_WITH but the word for (Powai) starts with ( not Powai. You'll probably want to change it to rankings.CONTAINS.

Alternatively, you could use the function form (see "Property Callbacks" in the README.md file) and return the name with the parentheses removed.

Good luck!
