Description
How can I show AutoComplete suggestions for the current Grid filter in Kendo UI?
Solution
The AutoComplete filter of the Grid is bound to the whole data source of the Grid control. However, it is possible to show the AutoComplete results only for the current filter of the Grid.
- Handle the
dataBoundevent of the Grid. - Get the data source filter of the Grid in the dataBound handler and set it as a filter to the AutoComplete data source.
The following example demonstrates how to use the AutoComplete for filtering and consider the current filter of the Grid.
<div id="grid"></div>
<script>
function filterAutoCompleteDataSource(e) {
var gridFilter = e.sender.dataSource.filter();
e.sender.element.find(".k-autocomplete input").data("kendoAutoComplete").dataSource.filter(gridFilter);
}
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#grid").kendoGrid({
dataSource : {
type : "odata-v4",
transport : {
read : "https://demos.telerik.com/service/v2/odata/Orders"
},
schema : {
model : {
fields : {
OrderID : {
type : "number"
},
Freight : {
type : "number"
},
ShipName : {
type : "string"
},
OrderDate : {
type : "date"
},
ShipCity : {
type : "string"
}
}
}
},
pageSize : 20,
serverPaging : true,
serverFiltering : true,
},
dataBound : filterAutoCompleteDataSource,
height : 550,
filterable : {
mode : "row"
},
pageable : true,
columns :
[{
field : "OrderID",
width : 225,
filterable : {
cell : {
showOperators : false
}
}
}, {
field : "ShipName",
width : 500,
title : "Ship Name",
filterable : {
cell : {
operator : "contains"
}
}
}, {
field : "Freight",
width : 255,
filterable : {
cell : {
operator : "gte"
}
}
}, {
field : "OrderDate",
title : "Order Date",
format : "{0:MM/dd/yyyy}"
}
]
});
});
</script>
