Searching in Angular Grid component

21 Dec 2022 / 7 minutes to read

You can search records in a Grid, by using the search method with search key as a parameter. This also provides an option to integrate search text box in grid’s toolbar by adding Search item to the toolbar.

To use Searching, you need to inject SearchService in the provider section of AppModule.

The clear icon is shown in the Data Grid search text box when it is focused on search text or after typing the single character in the search text box. A single click of the clear icon clears the text in the search box as well as the search results in the Data Grid.

By default, grid searches all the bound column values. To customize this behavior define the searchSettings.fields property.

Search operators

The search operator can be defined in searchSettings.operator property to configure specified searching.

The following operators are supported in searching:

Operator  Description
startsWith  Checks whether a value begins with the specified value.
endsWith  Checks whether a value ends with specified value.
contains  Checks whether a value contains with specified value.
equal  Checks whether a value equal to specified value.
notEqual  Checks whether a value not equal to specified value.

Search by external button

To search grid records from an external button, invoke the search method.

Search on each key stroke

You can search the Grid data on each key stroke by binding the keyup event for the search input element inside the created event. Inside the keyup handler you can search the Grid by invoking the search method of the Grid component.

Perform search operation in Grid using multiple keywords

You can perform a searching operation in the Grid using multiple keywords. This can be achieved by the actionBegin event of the Grid. In the following sample, we have performed the searching with multiple keywords by using the query property of grid when the requestType is searching in the actionBegin event.
