FilterBox| Hitchhikers Platform
Background
The FilterBox component allows users to add multiple static filter components together, including FilterOptions. Configuration on the top-level FilterBox component carries through to the individual filter components. Use FilterBox instead of individual filter components if:
- A single apply button should impact all filters
- The filters are grouped together visually
- A set of static filter components should share settings
Bug Alert: There’s currently an issue with filterbox’s searchOnChange functionality. For now, setting this to false will simply hide the apply button, but a new search is needed to the filters to be applied.
Here’s a basic example:
this.addComponent("FilterBox", {
container: ".filter-box-container",
searchOnChange: true,
filters: [
{
type: "FilterOptions",
control: "singleoption",
optionType: "STATIC_FILTER",
label: "Services",
options: [
{
label: "Pick Up",
field: "pickupAndDeliveryServices",
value: "In-Store Pickup"
},
{
label: "Delivery",
field: "pickupAndDeliveryServices",
value: "Delivery"
}
]
},
{
control: "singleoption",
type: "FilterOptions",
optionType: "RADIUS_FILTER",
showExpand: false,
label: "Within",
options: [
{
value: 8046.72,
label: "5 miles"
},
{
value: 16093.4,
label: "10 miles"
},
{
value: 40233.6,
label: "25 miles"
},
{
value: 80467.2,
label: "50 miles"
}
]
}
]
});Advanced Configuration & Example
After you’ve specified the individual filter components, you can also take advantage of several of the configuration options that will apply to all included filter components. Here, we’ve added a reset button per filter, and a reset button for the group of filters. We’ve also updated the showMoreLimit, which applies to both FilterOptions components. Finally, we’ve set expand to false for both FilterOptions components, but have overridden it for the static FilterOptions.
