I’m looking into adding a feature for our users that would need a string not_equal filter condition/operator. I’m aware that a not_equal condition does not exist for stringfilter (why!!?), which is why I’m looking at how to implement it myself. I figure this is a good opportunity to also tune the performance of filtering,
I’m looking at doing this by using the source’s filter method like the example seen here: http://www.jqwidgets.com/custom-data-filtering-with-jquery-grid-plug-in/ . Is this the best way to go about what I’m doing? Is there an easier way for me to implement filter logic? Is there any plan to have a native string not_equal filter operator so I don’t have to implement my own? I’m aware of the does_not_contain filter condition, but that’s insufficient for our needs.
Thank you.
