Date range filter
Filter the table based on two dates in different columns
- Author: guillimon
Filter a column on a specific date range. Note that you will likely need to change the id's on the inputs and the columns in which the start and end date exist.
Use
This plug-in can be obtained and used in multiple different ways.
Browser
This plug-in is available on the DataTables CDN:
The plug-in will then automatically register itself against a global DataTables instance. This file can also be used if you are using an AMD loader such as Require.js.
Note that if you are using multiple plug-ins, it can be beneficial in terms of performance to combine the plug-ins into a single file and host it on your own server, rather than making multiple requests to the DataTables CDN.
NPM
The plug-ins are all available on NPM (which can also be used with Yarn or any other Javascript package manager) as part of the datatables.net-plugins
package. To use this plug-in, first install the plug-ins package:
npm install datatables.net-plugins
ES modules
Then, if you are using ES modules, import datatables.net
, any other DataTables extensions you need, and the plug-in:
import DataTable from 'datatables.net';
import 'datatables.net-plugins/filtering/row-based/range_dates.mjs';
CommonJS
If you are using a CommonJS loader for Node (e.g. with older versions of Webpack, or non-module Node code) use the following method to require
the plug-in:
var $ = require('jquery');
var DataTable = require('datatables.net');
require('datatables.net-plugins/filtering/row-based/range_dates.js');
Example
$(document).ready(function() {
var table = $('#example').DataTable();
// Add event listeners to the two range filtering inputs
$('#min').keyup( function() { table.draw(); } );
$('#max').keyup( function() { table.draw(); } );
} );
Version control
