Case insensitive queries with LoopBack 4

My first post!

If the results of the query must contain the upper or lower case of some text, you will need to do a case-insensitive RegExp search:

	const someText = 'black';
	const pattern = new RegExp('.*' + someText + '.*', "i"); /* Case-insensitive RegExp search. The second argument is the case insensitive flag */
	Cat.find({
	where: {
	adopted: false,
	or: [
	{ name: { regexp: pattern } },
	{ description: { regexp: pattern } }
	]
	}
	});
