Description
Description
- When using Filter, the table shows matched flows.
- It is hard to know exactly where the match is inside the selected flow.
- The app should highlight matched text in visible places, so users can find it quickly.
Current Problem
- Filter result only shows which flows are matched.
- After selecting a flow, users must manually search inside:
- URL
- Query
- Request headers
- Response headers
- Cookies
- Form data
- Raw first line and headers
- This is slow when there are many rows or many headers.
- Body highlighting is too complex and should not be included for now.
Acceptance Criteria
- Highlight matched text only for the selected flow.
- Do not calculate highlights for all matched flows at once.
- Highlight matches in:
- URL
- Query
- Request headers
- Response headers
- Cookies
- Form data
- Raw tab first line
- Raw tab headers
- Do not highlight body content in Preview tab.
- Do not highlight body content in Raw tab.
- Highlight color must be readable in light mode and dark mode.
- Highlights must disappear when the filter is turned off.
- Highlights must disappear when there is no selected flow.
- Negative-only filters should not show highlights.
- Add unit tests for the highlight matching logic.
