If you use ransack gem, it will allow you to use simple methods to search. Using ransack, you will only need to do this:

@outputs = Output.search(name_cont: params[:filter_search]).result.order("name ASC")

Try this : 

    filter_text=params[:filter_search] 
    @outputs = Output.where("name LIKE ?","%#{filter_text}%").order("name ASC")

One easy way to search is to use Ransack. Which provides you an efficient search mechanism.

Instead of:

filter_text=params[:filter_search]
@outputs = Output.where("name LIKE '%#{filter_text}%'").order("name ASC")

Try the following:

filter_text=params[:filter_search]
@outputs = Output.where(["name LIKE ?", "%#{filter_text}%"]).order("name ASC")

If you are going for case insensitive search go for ILIKE

filter_text = params[:filter_search]
@outputs = Output.where("name ILIKE ?", "'%#{filter_text}%'").order("name ASC")
