Netzke::Basepack::GridPanel and search

[rme]

Hi

I'm new to Netzke

I want to use Netzke::Basepack::GridPanel to create a grid

I've derived a class - provided a list of columns & it works really
well

It has a number of associations (using "__" notation) that work fine
in the edit/add form, but which don't work so well in the search form

In search it offers integer compares on the foreign key when I'd like
string compares

Can I either suppress them from the search form, or can I fix it so it
does string compares?

I've tried search_form_config & search_form but haven't made any
progress

Any advice would be very welcome

Thanks in advance

Hi Richard,

Atm, there's no option like search_form_config implemented in
GridPanel, but it surely should be there. Do you feel like submitting
a pull request (this is where the change should come:
https://github.com/skozlov/netzke-basepack/blob/master/lib/netzke/basepack/grid_panel.rb#L419)

or do you prefer to wait until I find time to fix it myself?

Thanks!

Hi NomadCoder

Thanks very much for the prompt reply

I doubt you'd thank me for trying to implement this myself

I'm fairly new to rails & Netzke & think I'll leave it to the experts

My app (such as it is) works OK without this feature, but it would be
a really nice addition when it's available

Thanks again

Cheers

Richard
