Searching (or also sometimes called "Filtering") is supported through the navigator option. This will bring a search dialog with common operations (equal, less or equal, greater, not equal, contains, etc).
By default we have simple search with multipleSeasrch to false
You can control the various aspects of the Search Dialog.
Note that we have bind different plugins which can help improving the search Some of these are datepicker, autocomplete and etc.
If the data is loaded via array or string - i.e local data - the search is performed automatically. If you use server side data you will need to build your own search procedure at the server.
