Purpose and scope

A toggle button that opens or closes a datatable filter area.

This page documents the <monster-datatable-filter-button> custom element. Use the Usage examples for a working starting point and the API tab for the complete public contract.

When to use it

Use this module when its focused responsibility matches the surrounding workflow. Prefer its public options, properties, methods and events over reaching into rendered internals.

Filter Toggle

In this example, a simple filter with two filtering options is demonstrated. The example is not yet connected to a data source.

Javascript

//import '@schukai/monster/source/components/datatable/filter.mjs';<script type="module">//import '@schukai/monster/source/components/datatable/filter.mjs';</script>

HTML

<monster-datatable-filter>
    <!-- the attribute "data-monster-label" is used to define the label for the select element -->
    <!-- The text node inside the label is the label for the filter element -->
    <label data-monster-label="Input">Input Filter
        <monster-filter-input></monster-filter-input>
    </label>

    <!-- the next filter is hidden, because the attribute "slot" and the value "hidden" are used -->
    <label slot="hidden" data-monster-label="Date Range">Date Range Filter
        <monster-filter-date-range></monster-filter-date-range>
    </label>
