func:parseSearch

parseSearch(val)

Parse a search string into a Filter instance. The resulting filter can then be used with read(), readAll(), filter(), or filterToFunc().

The search string is one of the following free patterns:

• *<glob>* case insensitive glob with ? and * wildcards (default)
• re:<regex> regular expression
• f:<filter> haystack filter

See Nav for additional details on search syntax.

Examples:

readAll(parseSearch("RTU-1"))
readAll(point).filter(parseSearch("RTU* Fan"))
