I use PHP Server Side (Ozdemir Library) for the back-end of the table:
SELECT
l.LK_ID as id,
d.LK_ID as secondid,
LK_KLANTNR,
LK_KYC as KYC_STATUS,
p.name as LK_AFFILIATE,
LK_NAAM,
LK_NAAM as LK_BEDRIJFSNAAM,
......
//loads more data
FROM `licenties` l
INNER JOIN `partners` p
on l.LK_AFFILIATE = p.id
INNER JOIN details d
ON d.LK_ID = l.LK_ID
ORDER BY l.LK_KLANTNR DESC
The front-end uses typescript:
.DataTable({
serverSide: true,
searchDelay: 1000,
processing: true,
responsive: true,
autoWidth: false,
// editor: editor,
rowId: "id",
dom: "Bfrtip",
ajax: "datatables/clients.php",
columns: [
{
data: "id",
visible: false,
searchable: false,
orderable: false,
},
{
data: "LK_KLANTNR",
responsivePriority: 2,
},
{
data: "LK_NAAM",
responsivePriority: 3,
},
{
data: "LK_PLAATS_BEDRIJF",
responsivePriority: 6,
},
{
data: "LK_AFFILIATE",
responsivePriority: 5,
},
{
data: "KYC_STATUS",
// biome-ignore lint/suspicious/noExplicitAny: no typing available or known
render: (data: string, type: string, row: any, meta) => {
//render translations and type checks
}
},
responsivePriority: 1,
},
{
data: "LK_KLANTNR",
// biome-ignore lint/suspicious/noExplicitAny: no typing available or known
render: (data: string, type: string, row: any) => {
//render tooltips
},
responsivePriority: 4,
},
],
order: [[1, "desc"]],
// rowGroup: {
// dataSrc: "LK_AFFILIATE",
// },
language: {
url: locale.datatablesTranslationLink(),
},
select: {
style: "single",
},
buttons: [
//lots of buttons and functions
],
When I use set the order voor column 0 or 2 it works fine. But somehow when trying the same for column 1 it seems to go back to basic behaviors.
The object I get returned for a row looks as follows in the inspect browser tab:
{
"id": "18143",
"secondid": "18143",
"LK_KLANTNR": "18143",
"KYC_STATUS": "KYC_COMPLEET",
"LK_AFFILIATE": "ERA IT B.V.",
"LK_NAAM": "De Specialisten Groep B.V.",
"LK_BEDRIJFSNAAM": "De Specialisten Groep B.V.",
"LK_STATNAAM": "De Specialisten Groep B.V.",
//lots more properties
}
The id can be the same as the LK_KLANTNR but also different (depending on the system that created the data in the first place) so I am supposed to change the order of the rows to follow the LK_KLANTNR as opposed to the id.
Is the problem in the fact that I am trying to sort server-side data?
I have tried changing the rowId to LK_KLANTNR and changing the SQL ORDER BY to GROUP BY. As you can see I have disabled the rowGroup. When I try to sort on column 1 it always seems to group the data for the LK_AFFILIATE field with or without the rowGroup statement and sort on id ascending. This is not the case when trying to sort on column 0 or 2. Again seems to be the basic behaviour of the SQL statement.
Sorry for any spelling mistakes, English is not my native language.
