Dose search filter support regular search? #43

Closed njwangchuan closed 7 years ago

njwangchuan commented 7 years ago

The origin datatables support regular search in column.search() method, but it seems not working with Datatables and will return an empty list with search. I noticed that the README file says filter with String Type will translate to "like'%%'",does it means the lib is not support regex search yet?

Thanks

Hi! Please see my response here.

tl;dr: the regex flag is not supported because JPA does not support regexp matching.

@darrachequesne thank you very much.I just want to do exactly search and i find a solution with 'in' filters
