add quickFilter toolbar to mui data grid

hi, I'm using useDataGrid in a list page and it's working fine, my question is how can i use the showQuickFilter option of MUI DataGrid, when I add it the toolbar is visible and working but it doesn't search at all, can you provide a sample or does refine handle it in another way? thanks

Hi @hmmftg. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- To add a quick filter toolbar to the MUI DataGrid when using useDataGrid in refine, you can follow these steps: 1. Import the GridToolbar component from MUI X-Data-Grid. 2. Add the GridToolbar to the slots prop of the DataGrid. 3. Set the showQuickFilter option to true. Here's an example of how you can implement this:

import { useDataGrid, List } from "@refinedev/mui";
import { DataGrid, GridToolbar } from "@mui/x-data-grid";

const PostsList: React.FC = () => {
  const { dataGridProps } = useDataGrid();

  return (
    <List>
      <DataGrid
        {...dataGridProps}
        columns={columns}
        slots={{ toolbar: GridToolbar }}
        slotProps={{ toolbar: { showQuickFilter: true } }}
      />
    </List>
  );
};

import { useDataGrid, List } from "@refinedev/mui";
import { DataGrid, GridToolbar } from "@mui/x-data-grid";

const PostsList: React.FC = () => {
  const { dataGridProps } = useDataGrid();

  return (
    <List>
      <DataGrid
        {...dataGridProps}
        columns={columns}
        slots={{ toolbar: GridToolbar }}
        slotProps={{ toolbar: { showQuickFilter: true } }}
      />
    </List>
  );
};

However, it's important to note that there is a known issue with the quick filter functionality when using server-side filtering. According to the useDataGrid documentation, the MUI X community version only filters the rows according to one criterion at a time. To use multi-filtering, you need to upgrade to the Pro plan. If you want to implement server-side filtering without specifying the filterModel, you can do this:

return <DataGrid {...dataGridProps} filterModel={undefined} />;

return <DataGrid {...dataGridProps} filterModel={undefined} />;

This approach supports more than one criteria at a time, but it won't show which fields are filtered in the DataGrid headers. For a more detailed example of how to use filtering with useDataGrid, you can refer to the Controlled filtering section in the refine blog. If you're still experiencing issues with the quick filter not working as expected, it might be worth checking if there are any recent updates or known issues in the refine GitHub repository or documentation. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai i wanted to use quickFilter for client side filtering @kapa.ai i wanted to use quickFilter for client side filtering and not for server side filtering

kapa.ai•4w ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- To use the quick filter for client-side filtering with the MUI DataGrid in refine, you can set the filtering mode to "off" in the useDataGrid hook. This will disable server-side filtering and allow you to use the quick filter for client-side filtering. Here's how you can implement this: 1. Set the filtering mode to "off" in the useDataGrid hook:

const { dataGridProps } = useDataGrid({
  filters: {
    mode: "off",
  },
});

const { dataGridProps } = useDataGrid({
  filters: {
    mode: "off",
  },
});

2. Then, set up your DataGrid component with the GridToolbar and quick filter:

import { useDataGrid, List } from "@refinedev/mui";
import { DataGrid, GridToolbar } from "@mui/x-data-grid";

const PostsList: React.FC = () => {
  const { dataGridProps } = useDataGrid({
    filters: {
      mode: "off",
    },
  });

  return (
    <List>
      <DataGrid
        {...dataGridProps}
        columns={columns}
        slots={{ toolbar: GridToolbar }}
        slotProps={{ toolbar: { showQuickFilter: true } }}
      />
    </List>
  );
};

import { useDataGrid, List } from "@refinedev/mui";
import { DataGrid, GridToolbar } from "@mui/x-data-grid";

const PostsList: React.FC = () => {
  const { dataGridProps } = useDataGrid({
    filters: {
      mode: "off",
    },
  });

  return (
    <List>
      <DataGrid
        {...dataGridProps}
        columns={columns}
        slots={{ toolbar: GridToolbar }}
        slotProps={{ toolbar: { showQuickFilter: true } }}
      />
    </List>
  );
};

This setup will enable client-side filtering using the quick filter toolbar. The filters.mode: "off" setting ensures that filtering is not sent to the server, and instead, you can use the filters value to filter the records on the client side. For more information on client-side filtering with useDataGrid, you can refer to the useDataGrid documentation. Remember that when using client-side filtering, all data is loaded on the client, which might impact performance for large datasets. Make sure this approach is suitable for your use case. useDataGrid Documentation ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai I've already done what you said in my code, but when I input text in search toolbar nothing happens

kapa.ai•4w ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- I apologize for the confusion. If you've already implemented the client-side filtering as suggested and the search toolbar is not working, there might be an issue with how the quick filter is being applied to the DataGrid. Let's troubleshoot this further. Based on the information provided in the knowledge sources, there's a known issue with the quick filter functionality in the MUI DataGrid when used with refine's useDataGrid hook. This issue has been reported and discussed in a GitHub issue: GitHub Issue: useDataGrid Sorting and Filtering Seems Broken According to this issue, when using a GridToolbar with showQuickFilter: true, the search field doesn't work with client-side filtering as expected. This appears to be a limitation or bug in the current implementation. To work around this issue, you might need to implement a custom filtering solution. Here's a potential approach: 1. Create a state to hold the filter value:

const [quickFilterValue, setQuickFilterValue] = React.useState("");

const [quickFilterValue, setQuickFilterValue] = React.useState("");

2. Implement a custom filter function:

const filteredRows = React.useMemo(() => {
  return dataGridProps.rows.filter((row) =>
    Object.values(row).some((value) =>
      String(value).toLowerCase().includes(quickFilterValue.toLowerCase())
    )
  );
}, [dataGridProps.rows, quickFilterValue]);

const filteredRows = React.useMemo(() => {
  return dataGridProps.rows.filter((row) =>
    Object.values(row).some((value) =>
      String(value).toLowerCase().includes(quickFilterValue.toLowerCase())
    )
  );
}, [dataGridProps.rows, quickFilterValue]);

3. Update your DataGrid component:

<DataGrid
  {...dataGridProps}
  rows={filteredRows}
  columns={columns}
  slots={{
    toolbar: () => (
      <GridToolbar>
        <TextField
          variant="standard"
          placeholder="Search..."
          value={quickFilterValue}
          onChange={(e) => setQuickFilterValue(e.target.value)}
        />
      </GridToolbar>
    ),
  }}
/>

<DataGrid
  {...dataGridProps}
  rows={filteredRows}
  columns={columns}
  slots={{
    toolbar: () => (
      <GridToolbar>
        <TextField
          variant="standard"
          placeholder="Search..."
          value={quickFilterValue}
          onChange={(e) => setQuickFilterValue(e.target.value)}
        />
      </GridToolbar>
    ),
  }}
/>

This custom implementation should allow you to filter the rows client-side based on the quick filter input. It's worth noting that this is a workaround and not an ideal solution. The refine team is aware of these issues with filtering and sorting in useDataGrid, and they may be working on improvements. You might want to check for updates in the refine documentation or GitHub repository for any recent fixes or better solutions to this problem. GitHub Issue: useDataGrid Sorting and Filtering Seems Broken If this workaround doesn't solve your problem or if you need further assistance, you might want to consider opening a new issue on the refine GitHub repository to get more specific help from the maintainers. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai using grid toolbar as parent of textfield was mistake and didn't work, I've changed GridToolbar in your solution with Box and my custom filtering worked, but there is two problems, it's so slow and it's freezing after entering two characters

kapa.ai•4w ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- I apologize for the confusion in my previous response. You're right that using GridToolbar as a parent for the TextField was not the correct approach. I'm glad you were able to get the custom filtering working with a Box component instead. However, the performance issues you're experiencing are concerning. Let's address these problems: 1. Slowness and freezing: These issues are likely due to the filtering being applied on every keystroke, which can be computationally expensive, especially with large datasets. We can optimize this using debouncing and memoization techniques. Here's an improved version of the solution that should perform better:

import React, { useMemo, useState, useCallback } from "react";
import { useDataGrid, List } from "@refinedev/mui";
import { DataGrid } from "@mui/x-data-grid";
import { Box, TextField } from "@mui/material";
import debounce from "lodash/debounce";

const PostsList: React.FC = () => {
  const { dataGridProps } = useDataGrid({
    filters: {
      mode: "off",
    },
  });

  const [quickFilterValue, setQuickFilterValue] = useState("");

  const debouncedSetQuickFilterValue = useCallback(
    debounce((value) => setQuickFilterValue(value), 300),
    []
  );

  const filteredRows = useMemo(() => {
    return dataGridProps.rows.filter((row) =>
      Object.values(row).some((value) =>
        String(value).toLowerCase().includes(quickFilterValue.toLowerCase())
      )
    );
  }, [dataGridProps.rows, quickFilterValue]);

  return (
    <List>
      <Box mb={2}>
        <TextField
          variant="outlined"
          placeholder="Search..."
          onChange={(e) => debouncedSetQuickFilterValue(e.target.value)}
        />
      </Box>
      <DataGrid
        {...dataGridProps}
        rows={filteredRows}
        columns={columns}
      />
    </List>
  );
};

import React, { useMemo, useState, useCallback } from "react";
import { useDataGrid, List } from "@refinedev/mui";
import { DataGrid } from "@mui/x-data-grid";
import { Box, TextField } from "@mui/material";
import debounce from "lodash/debounce";

const PostsList: React.FC = () => {
  const { dataGridProps } = useDataGrid({
    filters: {
      mode: "off",
    },
  });

  const [quickFilterValue, setQuickFilterValue] = useState("");

  const debouncedSetQuickFilterValue = useCallback(
    debounce((value) => setQuickFilterValue(value), 300),
    []
  );

  const filteredRows = useMemo(() => {
    return dataGridProps.rows.filter((row) =>
      Object.values(row).some((value) =>
        String(value).toLowerCase().includes(quickFilterValue.toLowerCase())
      )
    );
  }, [dataGridProps.rows, quickFilterValue]);

  return (
    <List>
      <Box mb={2}>
        <TextField
          variant="outlined"
          placeholder="Search..."
          onChange={(e) => debouncedSetQuickFilterValue(e.target.value)}
        />
      </Box>
      <DataGrid
        {...dataGridProps}
        rows={filteredRows}
        columns={columns}
      />
    </List>
  );
};

This improved version includes the following optimizations: 1. Debouncing: We use the debounce function from lodash to delay the filtering until the user has stopped typing for 300ms. This reduces the number of filter operations. 2. Memoization: The useMemo hook ensures that the filtering only runs when the rows or filter value actually change. These optimizations should significantly improve the performance and prevent freezing. However, if you're dealing with a very large dataset (thousands of rows), you might still experience some lag. In that case, you might want to consider implementing virtualization or pagination. For more advanced optimization techniques, you can refer to the React filtering tips section in the refine blog, which discusses additional strategies like virtualization for handling large data volumes. If you're still experiencing performance issues after implementing these optimizations, it might be worth considering server-side filtering or pagination to reduce the amount of data being processed on the client side.
