Bottom Up Search to Filter a Nested Menu Array

I have searched on here for bottom-up search examples and I understand how they are done, but I have a specific need here that I have been unable to solve.

We have a menu system that I need to create a filter for.

So for example if the menu is

- Testing
    - Test
- Something
    - Something Else
    - Test

If I filter for "Test" I want 4 nodes back and everything else pruned out. The tricky part is that it can't remove the "Something" node in this case due to it having matching children that need to be accessed.

My code works, but only for the top level items, due to the filter pass during the first recursion step removing anything that may have matching children but the parent doesn't match.

private recursiveFilter(menuItems: MenuItem[], label: string): MenuItem[] {

if (label === '') {
  this.menuItems = this.originalMenuItems;
  return this.menuItems;
} else if (!menuItems)  {
  return [];
}

return menuItems
  .filter((el) => el.label?.toLowerCase().includes(label.toLowerCase()))
  .map((el) => {

    if (!(el.items || !Array.isArray(el.items))) {
      return el;
    } else {

      const menuChildren = el.items as MenuItem[];

      if (menuChildren) {
        el.items = this.recursiveFilter(menuChildren, label);
      }

      return el;

    }
  });

}

Example of a MenuItem with nested children:

{
    "label": "Messages",
    "expanded": false,
    "items": [
        {
            "label": "Dashboard",
            "expanded": false,
            "routerLink": "/messages",
            "visible": true
        },
        {
            "label": "Voicemail",
            "expanded": false,
            "items": [
                {
                    "label": "Inbox",
                    "icon": "pi pi-fw pi-folder",
                    "routerLink": "/mailbox/inbox"
                },
                {
                    "label": "Archived",
                    "icon": "pi pi-fw pi-folder",
                    "routerLink": "/mailbox/archived"
                },
                {
                    "label": "Trash",
                    "icon": "pi pi-fw pi-folder",
                    "routerLink": "/mailbox/trash"
                }
            ]
        },
        {
            "label": "Text",
            "expanded": false,
            "items": [
                {
                    "label": "Messages",
                    "routerLink": "/sms",
                    "routerLinkActiveOptions": {
                        "exact": true
                    }
                },
                {
                    "label": "Send",
                    "routerLink": "/sms/send",
                    "routerLinkActiveOptions": {
                        "exact": true
                    }
                },
                {
                    "label": "Contacts",
                    "routerLink": "/sms/contacts"
                }
        ]
    }
]

}

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...
