Apply active table filters with headerActions export

[imbue]

Is it currently possible to apply the active table filters when exporting using the ExportAction as header action?

Currently this ExportAction will export all records of that db table. It would be great if the filters could be applied to the export query so the user can create an export for i.e. a specific date range:

->filters([
    Tables\Filters\Filter::make('created_at')
        ->form([
            Forms\Components\DatePicker::make('created_from')
                ->placeholder(fn($state): string => 'Dec 18, ' . now()->subYear()->format('Y')),
            Forms\Components\DatePicker::make('created_until')
                ->placeholder(fn($state): string => now()->format('M d, Y')),
        ])
        ->query(function (Builder $query, array $data): Builder {
            return $query
                ->when(
                    $data['created_from'],
                    fn(Builder $query, $date): Builder => $query->whereDate('created_at', '>=', $date),
                )
                ->when(
                    $data['created_until'],
                    fn(Builder $query, $date): Builder => $query->whereDate('created_at', '<=', $date),
                );
        })
        ->indicateUsing(function (array $data): array {
            $indicators = [];
            if ($data['created_from'] ?? null) {
                $indicators['created_from'] = 'Order from ' . Carbon::parse($data['created_from'])->toFormattedDateString();
            }
            if ($data['created_until'] ?? null) {
                $indicators['created_until'] = 'Order until ' . Carbon::parse($data['created_until'])->toFormattedDateString();
            }

            return $indicators;
        }),
])

->headerActions([
    ExportAction::make()->exports([
        ExcelExport::make()->withColumns([
            Column::make('case_number')->heading('Case number'),
            Column::make('created_at')->heading('Creation date'),
        ]),
    ])
])

It looks like a workaround could be to use the ExportBulkAction in combination with the Select all X functionality. This will also export records that are not visible in the current page.

I think this was implemented when you use ->fromTable()

Yeah this option also works for me. Thanks @pxlrbt

A little bit off-issue-topic but is there a way to export related data on a row-for-every-relation basis? I.e some orders have 1 order line, some have 2 or more.

Order	Product	Quantity
ORD001	product_a	1
ORD001	product_b	3
ORD002	product_c	1

I've considered a couple of options but each of them has a blocker:

• #47, but this merges them into a single excel row
• #8, but it looks like this will lose the functionality to use the active table filters
• the Column::make('ordersLines[0].product') syntax, but this lacks flexibility due to being limited to that index

Any ideas?

[pxlrbt]

Not really. Haven't found a good way to implement relation across multiple columns yet.

Solution:

            ExportAction::make()
                ->exports([
                    ExcelExport::make()
                        ->fromModel()
                        ->useTableQuery(),
                ]),

This uses the model attributes and the currently active table query.
