How can I search ods file for keywords and show entire row, not just the cell that contains keyword?

Question

I have an .ods file. I need to search said file for keyword and need the result to reflect the entire row, not just the cell containing the keyword. Here is the file in question:

RO     JOB  REPAIR          TIME
224576   1  DASH HARNESS    26.3
224577   5  APIM FLASH      1.5
224578   3  SUNROOF         11.9
224579   9  OIL CHANGE      0.3

I found a script called odfgrep here that works well, but the results returned are only the cell containing the keyword:

./odfgrep DASH FEB23.ods
DASH HARNESS

What I would like to see, is the entire row, preferably with the header:

./odfgrep DASH FEB23.ods
RO     JOB  REPAIR          TIME
224576   1  DASH HARNESS    26.3

Side note, I intend to incorporate this with a zentity script. I've had issues in the past with people not understanding my question. If this is not clear enough, please do not close, give me a chance to fix it, and please offer some pointers as to where it is unclear. Thanks.

The below adaptation of odfgrep shows the full line, separating cells with comma (in your example you may grep on "\(REPAIR\|DASH\)" then you may pipe to sed or other to have a different separator)

#!/bin/bash
### grep Libreoffice files (temporarily converted to text)
### adapted for LibreOffice from https://www.linux-magazine.com/Issues/2018/213/Tutorials-odfgrep/(offset)/3
### note: like original odfgrep, can only be used in a directory in which one can create (and delete) files (and a subdir)

OPTIONS=$@
ODFOPTIONS=`echo $@ | sed -e 's/\.\(odt\|odp\|ods\)\b/\.\1\.odfgrep\.txt/g'`

### explicit initialization
FILES2REMOVE=""

### working subdir
WORKDIR=.odfgrep

### don't mess with it if pre-existing, let the user clean it up
if [ -d "$WORKDIR" ]
then
    echo $WORKDIR already exists
    exit 1
fi

### try creating it
if ! mkdir $WORKDIR
then
    echo $WORKDIR cannot be created
    exit 1
fi


for FF in $OPTIONS
do
    if [ -f "$FF" ]
    then
         case "$FF" in
             *.odt|*.odp|*.ods)
          ### odt2txt not needed any more, but extension cannot be specified, let's put the result in our subdir
                  libreoffice --convert-to txt $FF --outdir $WORKDIR
          FFBASE=`echo $FF | sed -e 's/\.od[pst]//'`
          ### then move it to odfgrep expected filename with special extension
          mv $WORKDIR/$FFBASE.txt $FF.odfgrep.txt
                  FILES2REMOVE="$FILES2REMOVE $FF.odfgrep.txt"
                  ;;
             *) # non-ODF file found, nothing to do
                  ;;
         esac
    fi
done

### redirection of error output for case of non-existing file
grep $ODFOPTIONS 2>&1 | sed -e 's/\.odfgrep\.txt//'

### extraneous brackets and slashes removed
if [ -n "$FILES2REMOVE" ]
then
    rm $FILES2REMOVE
fi

### finally, remove the empty working subdir
rmdir $WORKDIR

exit
