How to do "smart search" in JSON File?

Suppose I have a JSON object such as [{ address: "Amber 21, Pallet Town, Johto" value: 8 }, address: "Red 12, Vermilion City, Hoenn" value: 9 ]

A user type Amber street, Johto in the form.
I'd like to do "smart search" to match the one with the most resemblance (in other words like the best score if we talk about machine learning) and get the result which is 8.
Is there any module which does this?

For a simple implementation, just send a request to your server containing the search keyword, example : "mobile"

Then in mongo, target the fields wanted with a regex then return the result.

Front:

// on input change
$.ajax({
    method: "GET",
    url: "http://searchuri",
    data: { search: mysearchinput }
})
.fail(function(err) {
    console.log(err.responseJSON);
})
.done(function(data) {
   // do stg with your datas
});

Backend:

Datas.find({ productname: { $regex : ".*"+ req.query.search +".*", $options:'i' } }, function(err, result){

     return res.status(200).json({result: result})

  });
