How to show data only if I do a search or use Yadcf filter?

I'm using a request that populate a table but what I need is to set the table to show no info (empty result) on load .

What I need is to display the info if I do a search or use a Yadcf filter.

Is there a way to set Yadcf and/or Datatable for that?
I'm not using the server side processing.

Any suggestion is welcome

Thanks

    I haven't tried this but what I would try is using the search api and if the .val() of your search input is blank or length 0 then return false otherwise return true. This will be called when the table is drawn.

    I'm thinking that anytime the search field is blank it will show a table with no matching records. Then as you type into the search input the table will display the normal search results.
