React-select: Doesn't allow search with asterisk(*) in search text

[sampatbadhe]

When I am searching data with asterisk(*) character in it, ajax returns the result, but it wont displayed in the select list.

example:
I have search engine which search by starts_with, for partial search I need to add asterisk(*) in front of the string.

• Apple
• Pineapple
• Crusted Apple
• Bilberry
• Blackberry

If I search for App it return the following result

• Apple
• Crusted Apple

To get Pineapple to included in the list I need to add asterisk in front of apple like *apple

When I add asterisk(*) ajax call returns the result, but the result is not shown in the list.

Hi @sampatbadhe you will need to override the filterOptions prop to allow this behavior.
