A javascript tool for searching inside objects inspired by linux grep
A javascript tool for searching inside objects inspired by linux grep. The tool performs deep searches in javascript
objects, returning back lists of keys and values for which the search clause will be executed, this is especially useful
when debugging. Regular expressions are used under the hood, so you can very flexibly customize your search terms
