    // console.log(value, queryString);
    return value.filter((student)=>new RegExp(queryString).test(student.name))
    // return value;
  }

回答1:

It's because you have data as input that are loaded asynchronously using an HTTP request.

You need to check this before being able to apply the filter:

export class SortByNamePipe {
  transform (value, [queryString]) {
    if (value==null) {
      return null;
    }

    return value.filter((student)=>new RegExp(queryString).test(student.name))
    // return value;
  }
}
