with livewire 1.3 / alpinejs 2.x.x I make listing of data with filter text and selection inputs and clicking on “Search” button I need to run search when “Search” button is clicked. But search is run when text/selection input lose focus without clicking on “Search” button. I see it by form's wire:loading block and 1 line in log file, which I trigger in render method That is not what I need : I need to run render method only clicking on “Search” button. I tried to use alpinejs, but failed... In component app/Http/Livewire/Admin/AppNews.php I have:
<?php

Which is the valid way?
Modified BLOCK 2:
I try another way with using of alpinejs2 : I try to use it in this case, as when public var of component is changed: with dispatch methid when button “Search” is clicked
<div class="card form-admin-facilities" x-data="adminFacilitiesComponent()">
...
filter_name: {{$filter_name}}<br>
...
temp_filter_name: <span x-html="temp_filter_name"></span><br>
...
<fieldset class="bordered text-muted p-2 m-2">
<legend class="bordered">Filters</legend>
<div class="content_with_right_button" wire:model.lazy="filter_name">
<div class="content_with_right_button_left_content" >
<input
class="form-control admin_filter_input"
x-model="temp_filter_name"
type="text"
>
</div>
<div class="content_with_right_button_right_button pl-2" >
<button class="btn btn-outline-secondary" @click="$dispatch('input', temp_filter_name)" type="button">Search
</button>
<!-- In more complicated form can be several filter fields : text and select inputs -->
</div>
</div>
</fieldset> <!-- Filters -->
...
<script>
function adminFacilitiesComponent() {
return {
temp_filter_name:'',
and in the component I defined public $filter_name var, which is used in render method :
class Facilities extends Component
{
public $form= [
'name'=>'',
'descr'=> '',
'created_at'=> '',
'is_reopen' => false,
];
public $current_facility_id;
public $filter_name= '';
public $updateMode = 'browse';
public function render()
{
\Log::info( '-1 render Facilities $this->filter_name ::' . print_r( $this->filter_name, true ) );
$this->facility_rows_count = Facility
::getByName($this->filter_name, true)
->count();
$backend_per_page = Settings::getValue('backend_per_page', CheckValueType::cvtInteger, 20);
return view('livewire.admin.facilities.container', [
'facilityDataRows' => Facility
::orderBy('created_at', 'desc')
->getByName($this->filter_name, true)
->paginate($backend_per_page),
'facility_rows_count'=> $this->facility_rows_count
]);
}
But it does not work as I expect : entering value in text input when this input lose focus form is rendered again. I expected form to be rendered only when I click on “Search” button and form will be rendered with new entered value. I do not use blur event for text input and do not understand why the form is rendered when this input lose focus?
Modified BLOCK 3: Using x-ref= I do :
<div class="content_with_right_button" wire:model.lazy="filter_name">
<div class="content_with_right_button_left_content" >
<input
class="form-control admin_filter_input"
x-model="temp_filter_name"
x-ref="searched"
type="text"
> 1111111
</div>
<div class="content_with_right_button_right_button pl-2" >
<button class="btn btn-outline-secondary nowrap_block" wire:click="makeSearch(this.$refs.searched)" type="button">
Search
</button>
</div>
</div>
But I got error clicking on search button:
VM1983:6 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'searched' of undefined
at eval (eval at parseOutMethodAndParams (directive.js:55), <anonymous>:6:27)
at _default.parseOutMethodAndParams (directive.js:55)
Looks like it is impossible to use this.$refs. value in
wire:click="makeSearch .
I need to trigger component method
public function makeSearch($search_value='')
{
and send entered value into it. Looks like the way I tried was invalid. If there is a valid way?
Thanks!
