🐛 [Bug report]: Search plays on typing text instead of hitting enter all the time

[nishasen]

Descrcibe the bug?

When we search any play from the search bar we have to hit enter all the time, whereas it should search whenever the search text changes.

Steps to reproduce the bug?

1. Go to search for a play on the top navigation bar.
2. On typing something you always have to press enter to make a search

Expected behavior

The expected behavior of the search bar should be to provide search results whenever a person types something to it, instead of hitting enter all the time to search. Doing this way would give more results.

@atapas I would like to take this up and fix the issue

We have this to minimize the backend calls. What's your suggestions to fix it?

We can use debounce for minimizing the backend call According to recent situation there is only one backend call that is whenever we hit enter If we use debounce we can set a delay so the backend calls will happen only after a certain delay What do you suggest in this?

Doing it the way @siddxharth is doing will cause a lot of backend calls

Can we put a timeout on it then? After x micro-seconds of receiving the last input, the search will play?

Actually this is were debounce comes into play, it puts a timer on calling the api only on certain intervals when we start typing

Okay, will give it a try. Can you assign me this?
