Forums Scripts & Popups Match data using wildcard hashtable item search?

Hi. Is it possible to $hfind table items containing a wildcard and matching the data, or do you have to $hfind match the data, then loop through the list to check if the table item is correct?

For example, say I have the following table:


And I want to find all the hashes where *.startedby = adam. Logically something like `if some.item.*.startedby = adam, then add item to list`. The resulting like would be:


As far as I can tell, it's only possible to search *all* table items for a data match but not search wildcard-matched items for a data match.

Thanks for the help guys!

You can only search for item, or for data, not both at once, the easiest would be to match on item for "some.item.*.startedby" and check if that item's value is adam:

That's what I figured, thanks for clarifying Wims!

note: Just noticed the $hfind has "w,0" which is the reverse order. Should be "0,w".

There is no universe where I don't make this mistake
