Livewire search filter with an Example

Do you want to use the Livewire Search Filter with multiple conditions in the Livewire application?

This step-by-step tutorial helps you learn how to create a search example with a query string in the Livewire application.

Why you should use Livewire Search Filter

Filter Search functionality is widely used in eCommerce websites, CMS, and large applications to allow search with various options such as product price range filtering, name search filtering, and so on. So if you’re thinking about implementing filter search functionality in your project with query string feature options, then you’re in the right place. In this example, we will create a city search filter.

Okay, let’s get straight to the steps for the Livewire search filter with an Example 👇

Create a Livewire Component

php artisan make:model City -m

php artisan make:livewire City\ListCity

Okay, next we need to create a livewire component to create a view and logic for Advanced search and filtering in Laravel using Livewire. Please run the artisan command as above. From this command, it will generate two files located in the directory as below.

CLASS: app/Http/Livewire/City/ListCity.php
VIEW:  resources/views/livewire/city/list-city.blade.php

routes/web.php

use App\Http\Livewire\Admin\City\ListCity;


Route::get('/list-place',ListCity::class)->name('list.city');

City/ListCity.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Livewire\City;

use Livewire\Component;
use App\Models\City;
use Livewire\WithPagination;

class ListCity extends Component
{
    use WithPagination;
    protected $paginationTheme = 'bootstrap';
    public $searchTerm = null;
    protected $queryString = ['searchTerm' => ['except' => '']];
    
    #SeacrhTerm update while using pagination
    public function updatedSearchTerm(){
        $this->resetPage();
    }

    #Rendering a component with search functionality
    public function render()
    {
        if($this->searchTerm)
        {
            $cities = City::select('id','name','title','slug')
            ->where('name', 'like', '%'.$this->searchTerm.'%')
            ->orWhere('title', 'like', '%'.$this->searchTerm.'%')
            ->latest()->paginate(10);
        }
            else{
            $cities = City::select('id','name','title','slug')->orderBy('name')->paginate(10);}
        return view('livewire.city.list-city',['cities' => $cities]);
    }
}
