This pull request introduces initial regex-based search functionality and marker highlighting for W2UI grids.
Regex search makes it possible to match complex patterns across all grid columns,
and marker highlighting provides visual feedback for matched substrings.
Features
w2utils.demos/regex-demo.htmldemos/regex-grid-demo.htmldist/w2ui.jsdist/w2ui.es6.jspackage.jsonandgulpfile.jsto fix security vulnerabilities identified by npm audit (outdated dependencies updated to safe versions).Motivation
W2UI’s native search functionality is limited to simple substring matching.
With regex support, users gain significantly more powerful search capabilities,
especially for complex datasets. The added marker highlighting improves clarity
and user experience by visually showing where matches occur.
Notes for Reviewers
dist/files are included so the feature works without an additional build step,but core logic can be reviewed in the files under
src/.Status
Feature is complete and ready for review. Feedback welcome.
