Cannot use different data for filter, sort and display ? #47

Closed apri86 closed 7 years ago

apri86 commented 7 years ago

How can I use different data for the different data types requested by DataTables (ex: filter, sort and display)? I have refer to https://datatables.net/reference/option/columns.data, and use data as : "data": { "_": "phone", "filter": "phone_filter", "display": "phone_display" }

But, I got this error "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Property must not null or empty!". Btw, thanks for this usefully library @darrachequesne ;)

Finally, I have use datatables render function, for data display property. Thanks

I'm not too familiar with that format (I think it's called orthogonal data, isn't it?), but that case is indeed not handled currently.

Glad you found a solution! (that seems way easier than handling filter & sort args)
