Document new filtering syntax

[wbrgss]

Changes in the forthcoming #893 need to be documented:

• #545
  • Case insensitive filtering
  • New props: filter_options - to control case of all filters, columns.filter_options - to control filter case for each column
  • New operators: i=, ieq, i>=, ige, i>, igt, i<=, ile, i<, ilt, i!=, ine, icontains - for case-insensitive filtering, s=, seq, s>=, sge, s>, sgt, s<=, sle, s<, slt, s!=, sne, scontains - to force case-sensitive filtering on case-insensitive columns

A good place for the new documentation would be https://dash.plotly.com/datatable/filtering

Hi! this is awesome! have you uploaded a new version of dash data table with this new functionality? thanks in advance

[wbrgss]

@hamogli This new feature will be included in an umbrella dash release in the coming weeks; we will update https://github.com/plotly/dash-table/issues/545 once it is out and make an announcement on the Dash community forum

Hi, has filter_options been released, and if so, is there an example on how to use it?

I am using filter_action='custom' with a backend that does not support case-insensitive filtering. How can I remove the Toggle control?

[wolfgangcolsman]

Solution: .dash-filter--case { display: none !important; }

Bump. The Dash Python > Dash DataTable > Filtering Syntax page (https://dash.plotly.com/datatable/filtering) still seems to lack documentation of the new icontains/scontains options.

Should we move this over to https://github.com/plotly/dash-docs/issues?
