Grid Extension

The FilterBundle provides an extension for datagrid with ORM and Search datasources. Filters could be added to the datagrid in the datagrids.yml file for a specified datagrid under the filters node. Definition of any filter requires option data_name that should be referenced to column in the query and type (filter type).

For example:

 SOME_DATAGRID:
     source:
         type: orm
         query:
             select:
                 - g.id
                 - g.label
             from:
                 - { table: OroContactBundle:Group, alias: g }

     filters:
         columns:
             SOME_FITLER_NAME: # uses for query param, and for setting default filters
                 type: string  # Filter type, list of available types described below
                 data_name: g.id
                 enabled: true|false #whether filter enabled or not. If filter is not enabled it will not be displayed in filter list but will be accessible in filter management.
                 disabled: true|false #If filter is disabled it will not be displayed in filter list and will not be available in filter management.
                 visible: true|false #If set to "false" - filter will not be displayed anywhere in UI. However, one can still set filter's value in backend or via url in frontend
                 force_like: true|false #Different search engines uses different methods for text search. When `force_like` is set to true, text-based filters will use simple `LIKE %%` OR `NOT LIKE %%`statement which depends on a chosen operator
                 min_length: integer #In case of text-based filters this option introduce possibility to ignore filters with less characters then specified. Validation message will also appear
                 divisor: number #In case of number-based filters this option will filter values rendered with datagrid divisor option.
                 case_insensitive: true|false #When set to 'true' text search filter will be case insensitive [Postgres only].
                 value_conversion: string #Callback for text search filter used for converting value passed to a query.
