A selector for rows from X to Y?

Tablefak

Say my table displays 10 rows. I can select them like this:

datatable.rows({"search": "applied"})

How do I further filter out rows from 3rd to 5th in this set, for example?

I tried using .splice, but it doesn't return an Api instance which I could further operate on.
I also tried using .filter, but my callback doesn't get called for every row (as I expected). Instead, it's only called once with a value like this:

I was able to solve it like this:

        const rowsIndexes = dtApi
            .rows({search: "applied", order: "applied"})
            .eq(0)
            .filter((rowID, i, dt) => {
                return (i >= start) && (i <= end)
            })
            .toArray()
        dtApi.rows(rowsIndexes).select()

But I'm wondering if there's a more elegant way.

Maybe use rows().indexes(). This example uses splice() to get the desired range of row indexes.

  var rowIndexes = table
  .rows({search: "applied", order: "applied"})
  .indexes()
  .splice(3, 3);

  table.rows().deselect();
  table.rows( rowIndexes ).select();
