Simple text search for tern

[ApekshaBhosale]

I am writing autocomplete for codeMirror and i have options such as API, API.data, API.isLoading, API.data.list so rather than just providing API and then getting next values i show both ways. But when i write API.data, i want API.data and in suggestion API.data.list (ie just text match). I am not sure if this is possible today coz i wasn't able to find it anywhere. Can someone please guide me with this?

Sorry, I don't understand what you are talking about. Can you provide a demo or describe more details.

So now when i search with 'API.data', autocomplete should show up everything which has 'API.data' as string because 'API.data' might have more properties eg API.data.list. API.data.isLoading etc. Is this possible today? I went through the docs but couldn't find it.

Yes, AFAIK the child properties of an object still possible to provide such information.
