Filter Visibility

On this page

  1. Set visibility

Sometimes it is necessary to hide some of your filters. Maybe you want to use Laravel Penant or similar packages to activate and deactivate features in your application. In this cases it might be suitable to remove filters that only makes sense with that features activated.

In such cases you can overwrite the visible-method of each filter

<?php

namespace App\Models\Filters;

use Lacodix\LaravelModelFilter\Filters\DateFilter;
use Laravel\Pennant\Feature;

class CreatedAfterFilter extends DateFilter
{
    public FilterMode $mode = FilterMode::GREATER_OR_EQUAL;

    protected string $field = 'created_at';
    
    public function visible(): bool
    {
        return Feature::active('date_filters');
    }
}

If Feature date_filters isn't active in this example the CreatedAfterFilter will completely be removed from the models filters.
