Filtering Kendo Grid Array Column












0















I have a Kendo grid that I am using to display a typescript structure that looks like this.




{
companyId: string,
name: string,
inceptionDate: Date,
tags: string
}



I would like to be able to filter on the tags column, but I am unsure as to how this should actually work. I can quite easily filter on the name column, either with the built in grid filtering functionality or via code:



baseFilter.filters.push({ field: "name", operator: "contains", value: "myValue" });



But I don't see a way to do this against an array object. I would prefer to be able to select a tag from the a list in the grid filter option, but if that's not possible I'd be quite happy to use a multiselect and set the filter manually.



Is this something that is built in or that is relatively easy (or even just not insanely hard) to implement?

          As long as you're doing the client side filtering, you can use a function for the operator field.



          a simple example (in js):



          baseFilter.filters.push({
          field: "tags",
          operator: function (tags, value) {
          for (var i = 0; i < tags.length; i++) {
          var tag = tags[i];
          if (tag === value)
          return true;
          }

          return false;
          }});
