Filter and Pagination do not work correctly when using controlledProps or managing filter state externally

[EnzoArg]

I am encountering issues with the Filter component and its integration with DatatableWrapper. When I attempt to use controlledProps to manage the filter state externally, the component stops working, breaking both the filter and pagination functionality.

When I do not use controlledProps, the filter and pagination work correctly. However, if I open a modal or interact with other states in the application, the filter value resets, losing the active search.

Additionally, I want to highlight that my problem arises specifically when I add a button in each row that opens a Modal( react-bootstrap/Modal). When the modal is opened, the search input in the data table is cleared.

Here’s a simplified example of the issue:

function MyProgram() {
  const [modalShow, setModalShow] = useState(false);
  const [dataSelected, setdDataSelected] = useState({});

const columns = [
    {
      prop: 'id',
      title: 'Id',
      isFilterable: true,
      isSortable: true,
    },
    {
      prop: 'name',
      title: 'Name',
      isFilterable: true,
      isSortable: true,
    },
    {
      prop: 'description',
      title: 'Description',
      isFilterable: true,
      isSortable: true,
    },
    {
      prop: 'Actions',
      title: 'Actions',
      cell: (row) => (
        <ButtonGroup
          dataRow= {row}
          handleShow={handleButtonShowModal}
        />
      ),
    },
  ];
  const handleButtonShowModal = async (row) => {
    try {
      //request axios to get extra data
      const data = response.data.data;
      setdDataSelected(data);
      setModalShow(true);
    } catch (error) {
      console.error('Fail on handleButtonShowModal:', error);
    }
  };
  
  return (
    <>
      <hr />
      <MyModal show={modalShow} onHide={() => setModalShow(false)} data={dataSelected} />
      <MyDataTable
        columns={columns}
        data={myData}
      />
    </>
  );
}
export default MyProgram;



import PropTypes from "prop-types";
import { Col, Row, Table } from "react-bootstrap";
import {
  DatatableWrapper,
  Filter,
  Pagination,
  TableBody,
  TableHeader
} from "react-bs-datatable";

const MyDataTable = ({ columns, data }) => {
  return (
    <DatatableWrapper
      body={data}
      headers={columns}
      paginationOptionsProps={{
        initialState: {
          rowsPerPage: 10,
        },
      }}
    >
      <Row className="mb-4 p-2">
        <Col
          xs={12}
          lg={8}
          className="d-flex flex-col justify-content-end align-items-end"
        >
          <Filter placeholder="Search" />
        </Col>
        <Col
          xs={12}
          sm={6}
          lg={4}
          className="d-flex flex-col justify-content-end align-items-end"
        >
          <Pagination />
        </Col>
      </Row>
      <Table>
        <TableHeader />
        <TableBody />
      </Table>
    </DatatableWrapper>
  );
};

MyDataTable.propTypes = {
  columns: PropTypes.arrayOf(PropTypes.object).isRequired,
  data: PropTypes.arrayOf(PropTypes.object).isRequired,
};

export default MyDataTable;

Previous Approach (Without controlledProps):

In the previous implementation, the filter and pagination work correctly. However, when I open a react-bootstrap/Modal or interact with other parts of the application, the active filter value resets, losing the search. Current Approach (With controlledProps):

When using controlledProps to manage the filter state externally, both the filter and pagination stop working altogether.

import PropTypes from "prop-types";
import { Col, Row, Table } from "react-bootstrap";
import {
  DatatableWrapper,
  Filter,
  Pagination,
  TableBody,
  TableHeader,
} from "react-bs-datatable";

const MyDataTable = ({ columns, data, filterValue, onFilterChange }) => {
  return (
    <DatatableWrapper
      body={data}
      headers={columns}
      paginationOptionsProps={{
        initialState: {
          rowsPerPage: 10,
        },
      }}
      sortProps={{
        initialState: {
          order: "asc",
          prop: "name",
        },
      }}
      filterProps={{
        filterValue,
        onFilterChange,
      }}
    >
      <Row className="mb-4 p-2">
        <Col xs={12} lg={8}>
          <Filter
            placeholder="Search"
            controlledProps={{
              filter: filterValue,
              onFilterChange,
            }}
          />
        </Col>
        <Col xs={12} sm={6} lg={4}>
          <Pagination />
        </Col>
      </Row>
      <Table>
        <TableHeader />
        <TableBody />
      </Table>
    </DatatableWrapper>
  );
};

MyDataTable.propTypes = {
  columns: PropTypes.arrayOf(PropTypes.object).isRequired,
  data: PropTypes.arrayOf(PropTypes.object).isRequired,
  filterValue: PropTypes.string.isRequired,
  onFilterChange: PropTypes.func.isRequired,
};

export default MyDataTable;

It might be that I’m not correctly understanding how to use the library, and perhaps I should implement my filter externally to the datatable.
