Can I mix some server side configuration and client side in one data table settings?

Maggief

I have a datatable object and the data loading, paging and sorting are made in the server side, but I want to use the filter on the top right of the column to search on cliente side and only in the selected page.

Is that possible?

I will leave the settings of my dataTable:

table = $('#rolesTable').dataTable({
    lengthChange: false,
    pageLength: 10,
    paging: true,
    searching: false,
    serverSide: true,
    processing: true,
    ajaxSource: 'url.com',
    order: [[0, "desc"]],
    columns: [null, null, null, null],
    aoColumns: [... some info],
    columnDefs: [ ... some info],
    fnServerData: function (sSource, aoData, fnCallBack) {
        //Funtion to obtaing the info of the database
        $.ajax({
            type: "GET",
            url: sSource,
            data: data,
            dataType: "json",
            success: function (response) {
                fnCallBack(response);
            },
            error: function (response) {
                console.log(response);
                fnCallBack({ data: [], recordsTotal: 0, draw: 1 });
            }
        });
    }
});
//Definition of a new input to set the client side filter
$('#searchField').on('keyup search input paste cut', function () {
    table.fnFilter(this.value);
});

Hi @Maggief ,

I'm afraid not. If serverSide is enabled, then that means paging, ordering AND searching are all done on the server.

Cheers,
