How do i filter a row based on any column data with single textbox

Question

I am using ng-table.

I tried to use filter given in the example, but for filtering each column i need to have separate textbox.

But what i tying to achieve is, One textbox to search any row based on any column data.

How can i achieve this ?

Just like jquery datatable search box.

This is how i did

Html

    <input type="text" ng-model="searchUser">

    <table ng-table="tableParams">
      <tr ng-repeat="user in $data">
        ...
      </tr>
    </table>

Script

        var usersData = []; // initial data

        $scope.tableParams = new ngTableParams({
            page: 1,           
            count: 7
        }, {
        counts : [7,14,21,28],          
        getData: function($defer, params) {
            var searchedData = searchData();
            params.total(searchedData.length);
            $scope.users = searchedData.slice((params.page() - 1) * params.count(), params.page() * params.count());
            $defer.resolve($scope.users);                           
        },
        $scope: { $data: {} }
    });


$scope.$watch("searchUser", function () {
    $scope.tableParams.reload();
});

var searchData = function(){
    if($scope.searchUser)
       return $filter('filter')(usersData,$scope.searchUser);
    return usersData;
}

Remaining default ngtable configuration.
