Go to page having row with specific value

I use https://github.com/aldeed/meteor-tabular which ports DataTables to Meteor.

I want to go page having a row with a specific value. I have tried

// get data table instance
var dataTable = $('table').DataTable();

// get position of selected row
var rowPosition = dataTable.column( 0, { order: 'current' } ).data().indexOf( "the value i'm searching for" );

The problem is that dataTable.column( 0, { order: 'current' } ).data() only contains values of the rows on the specific page because the rest of the data is not subscribed to the client.

What can I do to search for the value in all rows?

I guess I should use

dataTable.column( 0, { order: 'current' } ).search( "the value i'm searching for" )

instead of

dataTable.column( 0, { order: 'current' } ).data()
