Enter button not recognised in search input on iOS about bitmagnet HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi, it seems that pressing enter in the search box doesn't trigger the usual keyup event on iOS.

In general, the app has not been designed for or tested on mobile at all (because most people will be using it on desktop alongside their desktop BitTorrent client). Better mobile support is a medium-term goal but not the highest priority right now so I'll leave this open for the time being.

While its obvious Bitmagnet is not yet designed/optimized for mobile use, this particular bug means it's not actually usable at all.

Like literally cannot use it. Because you will never be able to ... search for anything.

This could probably be fixed very easily by also handling the blur-event on the input-field, and not just responding to enter.

It might be as easy duplicating these lines:

And adding this:

            (blur)="
              search.setQueryString(queryString.value ?? '');
              search.firstPage();
              search.loadResult()

Another workaround could be to make the refresh button always consider the input-field before issuing the network request.

These should be fairly small changes in code which would make a very big impact (not usable at all on iphones => actually usable).

I've provided a very simplistic workaround for this in the following PR: #235

Tested locally on iPhone and works correctly as far as I see. Review, pretty please?

Also: Happy easter!
