Filter using range n2-smart-table

Question

I am using angular 2 component ng2-smart-table and was looking for a way to filter the records by range, for example if I have an age column I would like it to be filtered like ">90 or <90" instead of "like '90'". I looked around various forums but was unable to find such a way.

Answer 1

This is how I was able to apply a custom filter on the cell, doing so would call this function whenever a user would attempt to filter based on a particular column.

Example:

  columns: {    
    totalRows: {
    title: 'Total Rows',
    type: 'number',
    filterFunction(cell?: any, search?: string): boolean {          
      if (cell >= search || search === '') {
        return true;
      } else {
        return false;
      }          
    }
  }

This documentation on ng2-smart-table can be very helpful as well : documentation
