Add to a Resource

1. Add the trait

use Ableaura\FilamentAdvancedTables\Concerns\HasAdvancedTables;

class ListUsers extends ListRecords
{
    use HasAdvancedTables;
}

2. Define Preset Views (optional)

use Ableaura\FilamentAdvancedTables\Support\PresetView;

protected function getPresetViews(): array
{
    return [
        PresetView::make('active')
            ->label('Active Users')
            ->icon('heroicon-o-check-circle')
            ->color('success')
            ->filters(['status' => ['value' => 'active']])
            ->sortBy('name', 'asc')
            ->default(),

        PresetView::make('recent')
            ->label('Recent Signups')
            ->icon('heroicon-o-clock')
            ->sortBy('created_at', 'desc')
            ->badge('New', 'warning'),
    ];
}

3. Define Quick Filters (optional)

use Ableaura\FilamentAdvancedTables\Support\QuickFilter;

protected function getQuickFilters(): array
{
    return [
        QuickFilter::make('Active')->icon('heroicon-o-check')->filters(['status' => ['value' => 'active']]),
        QuickFilter::make('Inactive')->icon('heroicon-o-x-mark')->filters(['status' => ['value' => 'inactive']]),
        QuickFilter::make('This Month')->icon('heroicon-o-calendar')->filters(['created_this_month' => ['isActive' => true]]),
    ];
}

4. Add the Advanced Filter Builder to your table

use Ableaura\FilamentAdvancedTables\Filters\AdvancedFilterBuilder;

public static function table(Table $table): Table
{
    return $table
        ->filters([
            // ... your regular filters ...
            AdvancedFilterBuilder::make()
                ->columns([
                    ['column' => 'name',       'label' => 'Name',       'type' => 'text'],
                    ['column' => 'status',     'label' => 'Status',     'type' => 'select', 'options' => ['active' => 'Active', 'inactive' => 'Inactive']],
                    ['column' => 'created_at', 'label' => 'Created At', 'type' => 'date'],
                ]),
        ]);
}

5. Use Multi-Sort

use Ableaura\FilamentAdvancedTables\Concerns\AppliesMultiSort;

class ListUsers extends ListRecords
{
    use HasAdvancedTables, AppliesMultiSort;

    protected function getTableQuery(): Builder
    {
        return parent::getTableQuery()->tap(fn ($q) => $this->applyMultiSortToQuery($q));
    }
}

6. Use Advanced Search

use Ableaura\FilamentAdvancedTables\Concerns\AppliesAdvancedSearch;

class ListUsers extends ListRecords
{
    use HasAdvancedTables, AppliesAdvancedSearch;

    protected function getTableQuery(): Builder
    {
        return parent::getTableQuery()->tap(
            fn ($q) => $this->applyAdvancedSearchToQuery($q, ['name', 'email', 'phone'])
        );
    }
}
