Description

Enhanced the table filter in the Schema panel to search both table names and column names. When a column matches the search query, the table automatically expands (in-memory only) to show the matching columns.

Changes

• Filter logic: Updated table filtering to include column name matches using existing Redux allColumns data.
• Auto-expansion: Tables with matching columns now auto-expand their table row AND columns folder during search.
• State management: Search-driven expansions are purely in-memory and never persist to localStorage.
• Race condition fix: Added cleanup mechanism (isCancelled flag) to prevent stale async operations from causing incorrect expansion states during rapid input changes.

Implementation Details

• Column matching: Uses allColumns from the Redux store (already fetched via information_schema.columns()); no additional network requests.
• tablesWithColumnMatches Set: Computed via useMemo to track which tables need auto-expansion.
• In-memory expansion: Sets node.isExpanded = true directly on tree nodes without calling setSectionExpanded() (which writes to localStorage).
• Async safety: Effect cleanup function prevents race conditions when users type/delete rapidly.

Behavior

• Search for table name → table stays collapsed (existing behavior preserved).
• Search for column name → table + columns auto-expand, matching columns are visible.
• Clear search → all expansions revert to localStorage state (user’s manual expansions preserved).
• Rapid typing/backspace → no ghost expansions.

Testing

Tested with sample tables containing columns like col_string, col_ts, sensor_id:

• Column search correctly expands matching tables.
• Table name search maintains collapsed state.
• Rapid input (backspace spam) correctly handles state without stale expansions.
• Clearing search restores previous expansion states.

• PR title and description does not match
• Video and the code is telling something different
• The solution is not feasible

Closing the PR as it's overly AI-driven and unrefined.

Sorry for the issue @emrberk

Should I create one more PR with proper details.

Since, t was my first time creating a detailed PR thought of using AI for it.
