How to filter through data in a csv through a TextField-CodePudding

I've added a textfield to my GUI and I want it to filter through the host names if a name in inputed. E.g.: "Amy" would display all the Amy's in the csv file renting a house in the ListCell. I've added a method searchByHost() where I'd like to do it.

Here is my code:

public class ListingsController
{
    private ObservableList<String> comboBoxList = FXCollections.observableArrayList("Host Name: A-Z",
            "Host Name: Z-A", "Price: Low to High", "Price: High to Low", "No of Reviews: Low to High",
            "No of Reviews: High to Low");
    private List<AirbnbListing> propertyArrayList;
    private ObservableList<AirbnbListing> propertyList;
    private SortedList<AirbnbListing> sortedList;
    public TextField inputHostName;

    @FXML
    private ComboBox<String> comboBox;

    @FXML
    private ListView<AirbnbListing> listingsList;

    @FXML
    private TextField searchField;
    private String name;
    private String min;
    private String max;

    // TODO: remove at some point
    static final List<AirbnbListing> data = AirbnbDataLoader.load("airbnb-london.csv");

    public void initialize()
    {
        comboBox.setItems(comboBoxList);
        comboBox.valueProperty().addListener(e -> sortListings());
        setListings(data);

        listingsList.setCellFactory(new Callback<ListView<AirbnbListing>, ListCell<AirbnbListing>>() {
            @Override
            public ListCell<AirbnbListing> call(ListView<AirbnbListing> airbnbListingListView) {
                return new ListCell<AirbnbListing>() {
                    @Override
                    protected void updateItem(AirbnbListing listing, boolean empty) {
                        super.updateItem(listing, empty);
                        if (listing != null) {
                            setText(listing.getHost_name()   " - "   listing.getPrice()   " - "   listing.getNumberOfReviews()   " - "   listing.getMinimumNights());
                        } else {
                            setText("");
                        }
                    }
                };
            }
        });

        listingsList.getSelectionModel().selectedItemProperty().addListener((o, v0, v1) -> displayListing(v1));
    }

    public void setListings(List<AirbnbListing> listings)
    {
        listingsList.getItems().addAll(listings);
    }

    public void sortListings()
    {

    }

    public void displayListing(AirbnbListing listing)
    {
        if (listing == null)
            return;
        System.out.println(listing);
    }

    public void searchByHost()
    {
     
    }
}

All the examples I've seen online use a filter an observable list however I don't think I'd need that.

I put this together using

You should have two observable lists. One containing the filtered data and one containing all the data.

For filtering the list you can use the Java Stream API
