Hi @ifarm

We’ll investigate your issue, and get back to you after the weekend.

Hi @ifarm

If you want to perform server-side filtering you can use the beforeFilter hook. It will allow you not only to get the exact filter settings but also to block the filtering on the front-end.

Hello @adrian.szymanski, thank you for the reply. now clear about how to filter with server side.
But i have another question is related to use option fields for filter, for example select country for filter, not typing. and don’t want to use dropdown filter, want to use direct filter like as show in above image. that above image has some columns has text enter manually filter, some columns have option select field type filter and disabled filters for some columns.
Thank you

It might be possible to do, but it’s quite complicated.

Here are some tips that could be useful for you in this case. After typing each letter you would need to:

  • addCondition
  • filter()
  • Use addCondition to do activeEditor().close() operation

Additionally you would want to use this helper to ignore too much events and execute them in intervals.

Here are also source code of that functions:

And the last one helpful demo in which editor values are being logged in real time:

Thank you for the advise. But i want to know that how can i show filter with option field and input type field for the different columns of table. like in above image. It will just after the header. Can you please guide me with this

To make a different columns different types you need to do something like this:

However, to get the HTML Input tag you need to create a custom renderer, just like in the example above. The other available cell types are described here:

Undestand. but i want this html render with filter column. not with the regular data column.

That would require to create a pretty customized demo, as we don’t have such examples in our documentation. However, we offer that kind of service within our higher support plans.
