Passing Custom text Condition for DateType Field
« on: October 16, 2018, 04:06:48 pm »
Hi,

I created a text custom condition for a Datetime Field but its not passing the value back because i suspect its a text value associated with date type property.
Is there anyway around this?

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. Yes, its for remote filtering. Below is the code to add the condition:

    pq.filter.conditions.fallswithdays = {
        filter: {
            attr: "",
            cls: "",
            style: "",
            type: 'textbox',
            init: pq.filter.textbox
        },
        date: 1,
        number: 1,
        stringList: 1,
        }
    }
    $.paramquery.pqGrid.defaults.strConditions.fallswithdays = "Falls within (days)";

This is added to a Property which is a Date Field. The standard conditions work correctly.

The controller method is hit but the pq_filter variable is always null.

The user wants to be able to save a grid with a INTEGER value and show records with a date period from the day the grid loads + the INTEGER value added -
So basically "DateField"<= Datetime.Now.AddDays(INTEGER VALUE).

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Hi,

From further testing, it successfully will pass back the value when I use contains, EndsWidth etc... basically any of the built in existing conditions so it looks like when its a custom Condition, it does not pass it back.

Hope that helps.

Thanks

Hi,

Can this be moved to "Help for ParamQuery Pro" as the licenses were purchased. A seperate ticket was raised detailing the transaction ID and account details.

Thanks

Hi,

I checked my network console and the pq_filter is not been passed back at all when I filter on the date with a INTEGER value. (see attached FallswithinDays.zip).

I checked another custom condition which is NOT for date fields and that passes it back successfully.

See attached(OtherCustomerConditionWorking.zip) where there is 2 columns been filtered - both custom conditions but only 1(days remaining is been passed back) is been passed.

In your check, did you create a new custom filter or rename an existing filter? I know your existing filters will work, it seems when its a custom filter, I experience the problem.

I understand I need to create the filter logic in the deSerializeFilter method but the issue is with the pq_filter string not been passed back.

I have also attached the JS used to create the custom condition.

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for this. I found the issue. I set the format of the date field to be "dd-mm-yy" and this causes the issue when passing a non date value.
In your example, i added format:'dd-mm-yy' to the OrderDate and I could see the the network console that the filter was not passed.
Is there potentially another way to setting the format of dates?

Thanks
