I was trying to search for a partial uuid in the consumer groups and topics using redpanda console, and then i found that my input got magically converted into scientific number notation. It took me a while to realize it did that, and i was real confused why I couldn't find my topic. 😄
Steps to reproduce:
- Go to topics or consumer groups page
- Either paste or type in a string in the search field which has the format
<numbers>e<numbers>, such as 1461e229
Observed behavior:
The text gets replaced with scientific number notation. For example: 1461e229 gets converted into 1.461e+232.
Expected behavior:
That my text is not replaced with scientific number notation, so it actually searches for what I typed in.
Note
If you search by typing in "1461e229" (with the quotation marks), then you can search for the literal string.
I'm not sure if it's intended behavior, but at least it can be made more clear that the value is automatically replaced.
