ant-list-filter v1.0.0
Description
This is a component that creates and adds filtering functionality on your data.
It works only with the antd UI Library and accepts an antd List or Table Component as a render prop, on which it actually applies the filtering rules.
It then builds the filtering UI based on the props and fields that you have specified.

Fields Configuration
In order to apply the filtering functionality you have to specify some information on each field of your data. The configuration options are decribed below:
| Fields | Accepted Values | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| type | 'simplestring', 'multiselect', 'autocomplete', 'number', 'date', bool' | Required |
| uiName | The Name to display | Required |
| dataSource | An array of values. If this is ommited, then the distinct values to choose from will be extracted from the actual data | Required Field For Server Filtering. |
| format | The date format of your dates | Required for date fields only -has no use on other types. |
The library will build a corresponding antd component based on the type that you have specified for each field
Client & Server Filter Components
- ClientFilter
As its name implies, this component assumes that you have already got all of your data from the server and the filtering is applied client-side on that data.
- ServerFilter
This component accepts an extra prop called onPostFilters that has to return a Promise. That would usually be a fetch POST request that sends the contents of the applied filters on the specified endpoint and gets the response with the filtered data. More on this in ServerFilter usage and component-specific props. section.
Common Props
ClientFilter and ServerFilter Components share the majority of their props, which are basically adding filtering functionality or setting rules on the to-be filtered fields.
| Prop | Description | Type | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| dataFields | As described above | object | - |
| dataSource | The data that will be rendered and filtered | array | - |
| savedVisibleFilters | Filters that were applied and saved for user last time(optional) | array | - |
| autoBuildFilters | Enable user to pick filters manually or build them automatically for all fields that are on the dataSource | bool | false |
| withFilterPicker | Show filter picker or just use the search all bar at the top-right | bool | true |
| excludeFields | Exclude fields that we do not want filtering on, or can't filter | array | - |
| renderList | Function with two parameters (dataSource, loading indicator) that renders a List or Table antd component. See example | func | - |
