Search not working with React material-table using remote data

[kslein]

I'm using the material-table module here [1] with remote data from a web service. I've included the search parameter, but it's not working and there are no error messages in the console.

Here is the code:

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import MaterialTable from 'material-table';


import { forwardRef } from 'react';

import AddBox from '@material-ui/icons/AddBox';
import ArrowUpward from '@material-ui/icons/ArrowUpward';
import Check from '@material-ui/icons/Check';
import ChevronLeft from '@material-ui/icons/ChevronLeft';
import ChevronRight from '@material-ui/icons/ChevronRight';
import Clear from '@material-ui/icons/Clear';
import DeleteOutline from '@material-ui/icons/DeleteOutline';
import Edit from '@material-ui/icons/Edit';
import FilterList from '@material-ui/icons/FilterList';
import FirstPage from '@material-ui/icons/FirstPage';
import LastPage from '@material-ui/icons/LastPage';
import Remove from '@material-ui/icons/Remove';
import SaveAlt from '@material-ui/icons/SaveAlt';
import Search from '@material-ui/icons/Search';
import ViewColumn from '@material-ui/icons/ViewColumn';

const tableIcons = {
    Add: forwardRef((props, ref) => <AddBox {...props} ref={ref} />),
    Check: forwardRef((props, ref) => <Check {...props} ref={ref} />),
    Clear: forwardRef((props, ref) => <Clear {...props} ref={ref} />),
    Delete: forwardRef((props, ref) => <DeleteOutline {...props} ref={ref} />),
    DetailPanel: forwardRef((props, ref) => <ChevronRight {...props} ref={ref} />),
    Edit: forwardRef((props, ref) => <Edit {...props} ref={ref} />),
    Export: forwardRef((props, ref) => <SaveAlt {...props} ref={ref} />),
    Filter: forwardRef((props, ref) => <FilterList {...props} ref={ref} />),
    FirstPage: forwardRef((props, ref) => <FirstPage {...props} ref={ref} />),
    LastPage: forwardRef((props, ref) => <LastPage {...props} ref={ref} />),
    NextPage: forwardRef((props, ref) => <ChevronRight {...props} ref={ref} />),
    PreviousPage: forwardRef((props, ref) => <ChevronLeft {...props} ref={ref} />),
    ResetSearch: forwardRef((props, ref) => <Clear {...props} ref={ref} />),
    Search: forwardRef((props, ref) => <Search {...props} ref={ref} />),
    SortArrow: forwardRef((props, ref) => <ArrowUpward {...props} ref={ref} />),
    ThirdStateCheck: forwardRef((props, ref) => <Remove {...props} ref={ref} />),
    ViewColumn: forwardRef((props, ref) => <ViewColumn {...props} ref={ref} />)
};

const GET_PUBLICATIONS_URL = 'http://193.62.54.159/backend/v1/publications?';


class App extends React.Component {

    render() {
        return (
            <MaterialTable
                icons={tableIcons}
                title="Remote Data Preview"
                columns={[

                    new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
                        // let url = 'https://reqres.in/api/users?'
                        let url = GET_PUBLICATIONS_URL
                        url += 'size=' + query.pageSize
                        url += '&page=' + (query.page)
                        fetch(url)
                            .then(response => response.json())
                            .then(result => {
                                resolve({
                                    data: result._embedded.publications,
                                    page: result.page.number,
                                    totalCount: result.page.totalElements,
                                })
                            })
                    })
                }
                options={{
                    search: true
                }}
            />
        )
    }
}

// export default DemoMUITable_RemoteData;
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById("root"));

Here is an example of the output from the web service call used above cinema hd:

Hello,

First of all I would like to clarify that this is the KendoUI forum, and neither `material-table` nor `@material-ui` are part of the Kendo family. We usually do not provide support for external libraries, but we do believe we can help you solve the problem.

As a side note, you can sign-up for a free trial and explore 100+ KendoReact components and more-specifically - our KendoReact Grid component.

On your questions: Whenever the user `searches` for something, the `query` parameter will receive a `search` property. You can therefore access it through `query.search` and send the filter parameter either to your server, or apply the filter locally on the client.

For further questions regarding the `material-table` library, you can submit an issue in their Github Repository: https://github.com/mbrn/material-table

Regards,
Kiril
