resource.filter for substring

[stephen-murby]

DEFAULT_RECORDS = [{ id: 1, name: 'John Evans', number: '01928 356115' },{ id: 16, name: 'Murbinator', number: '053180 080000' }];

lookup: function (name) {
            var retrievedRecords = {};
            var _this = this;
            Record.findAll().then(function () {
                var params = {
                    where: {
                        name: {
                            'in': name
                        }
                    }
                };
                retrievedRecords = Record.filter(params);
                debugger;
                _this.lookupSuccess(retrievedRecords);
            }).catch(function (error) {
                console.log(error);
            });
        },

Where 'in': name name is "John" no record is found
Where 'in': name name is "John Evans" one record is found.
Looking at issue 238 that appears to be the way I should be filtering but is not the value I expect to be return for sub-string filtering.

angular-data : 1.5.3
angular : 1.3.8

I misspoke in that issue. You're looking for the contains operator, which is available in 2.0 (js-data-angular).

Thanks.

@stephen-murby Actually now that I take a closer look at the code, I'm not so sure the functionality you're looking for exists yet. Re-opening.
