value.toLowerCase is not a function about ngx-filter-pipe HOT 14 CLOSED

Could you provide more details? For example the data you are trying to filter.

from ngx-filter-pipe.

I am using the filter on a array of objects, where each user is an object, there are nested objects in users.

from ngx-filter-pipe.

okay, and what is your filter ?

from ngx-filter-pipe.

Oops :S it is a string . How should i use it then on an object? I am new to angular2 sorry.

from ngx-filter-pipe.

You need to make the filter similar to the object you want to filter. For example you want to filter users by their name:

users: any[] = [{ name: 'John' }, { name: 'Jane' }, { name: 'Mario' }];

then your filter would be:

userFilter: any = { name: '' };

from ngx-filter-pipe.

Even with object i get the same error. Could you describe it a little better how it should be used. With an example where there are used more fields in *ngFor not just name, and using a table where users are shown in rows?

from ngx-filter-pipe.

That would be the same for more fields in the object

users: any[] = [{ name: 'John', age: 25 }, { name: 'Jane', age: 26 }, { name: 'Mario', age: 25 }];

userFilter: any = { name: '', age: null };

from ngx-filter-pipe.

Does that mean that i have to include in the filter object all the user object properies and set them to null? However thank you for helping

from ngx-filter-pipe.

No, what i wanted to say is - you just need to add fields that you want your array of objects to be filtered by. In that case i did an example when i would filter by name AND age. If you have more fields or nested fields you would add once that you want to filter by, just match the structure of your objects.

No luck yet, here is my filter object userFilter:any={name :''}; and i still get EXCEPTION: Error in ./UsersComponent class UsersComponent - inline template:26:19 caused by: Cannot read property 'toLowerCase' of undefined

from ngx-filter-pipe.

@dearibujar did you try to put users and userFilter from my example ?
Otherwise, show me your data (make a mock of sensitive data if you want...) and html where you're using filterBy.

from ngx-filter-pipe.

@VadimDez I tried with your sample data also, same error. I will provide you also with a mock of my data and the html. But is it maybe the latest angular version that is causing the problem? By the way , i am using angular/cli

from ngx-filter-pipe.

I deleted your pipe and installed it from the begining, now it is working. But thank you for taking time, have a nice day.

from ngx-filter-pipe.

This issue is present in the examples, on the first "object.num" input.
