Answer 1

Create custom pipe

filter.pipe.ts

import { Pipe, PipeTransform } from '@angular/core';  
@Pipe({
  name: 'filter'
})
export class FilterPipe implements PipeTransform {
  transform(value: any, searchValue): any {
    if (!searchValue) return value;
    return value.filter((v) => 
    v.name.toLowerCase().indexOf(searchValue.toLowerCase()) > -1 || 
    v.size.toLowerCase().indexOf(searchValue.toLowerCase()) > -1)

  }

}

component.ts

<input type="search"  [(ngModel)]="search">

<div *ngFor="let f of (folderObjs | filter:search)as folder">
  {{f.name}}
  {{f.size}}    
</div>

<div *ngIf="(folderObjs | filter:search).length <1">
  Not Found
  </div>

Answer 2

const folderObjs = [
    {name: "Jane", lastName: "Doe"},
    {name: "john", lastName: "Snow"},
    {name: "Tyrion", lastName: "Lannister"},
    {name: "Lorem", lastName: "Ipsum"},
]

applyFilter(filterValue) {
 folderObjs.filter((val) => {
    return val.name.toLowerCase().indexOf(filterValue) > -1;
 });
}

above code will filter the data based name property.

applyFilter(filterValue, filterBy) {
 folderObjs.filter((val) => {
    return val[filterBy].toLowerCase().indexOf(filterValue) > -1;
 });
}

Can pass filterBy Option as well, Hope this helps
