Prefix restriction support

[chabou]

Thank you a lot for this service 😍. Really amazing.

Can you confirm that is not possible to restrict results to have only package with a given prefix?

For example, I would like to have all packages that begin with loader-
I read docs and (packages) source code. Although it is possible to make some regex with ElasticSearch, I didn't found anything.

Thank you!

Prefix filtering would allow to use npms.io to complete dependencies in package.json.

At the moment there's no such feature but it would be easy to add it. We could add that via a modifier or even a new API endpoint, or perhaps both?

@satazor That would be great! Either will work for me.
