25th Apr 2024SearchBuilder - Can it search data fields not displayed in table and / or form
Hi, my company are testing your Editor ASP.Net Core library with a view to subscribing to a license once we have tested it thoroughly.
Any advice would be greatly welcomed.
Thanks in advance,
Richard Hetherington

2024-04-25 17:15:31.814 BST [57396] STATEMENT:
tle_protocol_title is a boolean field in my Postgres Table
SELECT COUNT( titles.tle_id ) as "cnt"
FROM "titles"
WHERE ("titles"."tle_protocol_title" = $1 )
Description of problem:
I am using the SearchBuilder and trying to figure out how to control the data types of the final WHERE clause in the Query.
I am searching against a Boolean field in Postgres. I have the True and False values populated in SearchBuilder and can use them however the final WHERE clause is not casting the boolean field values to string to match the SearchBuilder value or vice versa.
I have tried the following in my Serverside Editor Config
.Field(new Field("(my_boolean_field::TEXT)", "my_boolean_field", typeof(string))
.Set(false) // Hide from the client-side table
.SearchBuilderOptions(new SearchBuilderOptions()
.Table("my_table")
.Value("(my_boolean_field::TEXT)")
)
)
In my datatables client-side config I have this
{
data: "my_boolean_field",
visible: false,
searchable: true,
searchBuilderType: "string",
searchBuilderTitle: "Protocol Title"
}
