Filter mode "off" only for one filter in table (AntD)
Can I specify filter mode "off" for only one column in antd table and rest of the columns can have filter mode "server"?

Hi @chachi. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
Based on the provided knowledge sources, it appears that the filter mode in refine's
useTable
hook is set globally for all filters, rather than on a per-column basis. The filters.mode
property applies to all filters in the table.
However, you can achieve a mix of client-side and server-side filtering by using the following approach:
1. Set the global filters.mode
to "server" in the useTable
hook:
2. For the specific column where you want client-side filtering, you can use Ant Design's built-in filtering feature by adding the filters
and onFilter
props to the Table.Column
component:
This approach allows you to have server-side filtering for most columns while implementing client-side filtering for a specific column. The client-side filtering will be handled by Ant Design's Table component, while the server-side filtering will be managed by refine.
Source: How can I handle client side filtering? (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/hooks/use-table/#how-can-i-handle-client-side-filtering)
Keep in mind that this mixed approach might have some limitations and could potentially lead to inconsistencies in filtering behavior across columns. It's generally recommended to use a consistent filtering approach (either all client-side or all server-side) for better user experience and performance.

@kapa.ai the records are filter but refine still makes request to server with the filter value. Why?
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
Refine's
useTable
hook is designed to sync with the URL by default. This means that any changes in the filter state will update the query parameters in the URL. When you apply a filter, refine makes a request to the server with the filter value as a query parameter. This is part of the server-side filtering functionality, which is useful for handling large datasets that can't be loaded all at once on the client side.
However, when you set filters.mode
to "off" for a specific column and use Ant Design's built-in filtering feature, the filtering is done on the client side. But since the filter state is still synced with the URL, refine will still make a request to the server when the filter state changes, even though the actual filtering is done on the client side.
This behavior is due to the one-way data flow in refine's syncWithLocation
feature. When useTable
is mounted and a routerProvider
is present and ready, filters
, sorters
, search
etc. are inferred from query params. Those values are stored in a state in the useTable
hook, any changes in those states will update the query params. If there are any changes in the query params that is not caused by useTable
and if those changes doesn't re-mount the hook, those changes are not synced with the internal states.
