Implementing custom search in datatables.net with angular 4

I'm trying to implement a simple custom search on a column. This is well documented at https://datatables.net/examples/plug-ins/range_filtering.html. However my (so far) only problem is accessing the $.fn.dataTable.ext.search array, to add and later remove my custom search function.

What is the path for this array, when going through angular-datatables?

Thanks in advance for your help.

 this.datatableElement.dtInstance.then((dtInstance: DataTables.Api) => {

      dtInstance. <-- what goes here?
 });

Was solved by the developer at https://github.com/l-lin/angular-datatables/issues/1111

It was because the typings were not complete, when using typescript in angular. Correct reference is $.fn['dataTable'].ext.search
