Use Or instead of And with multiple search filters

[Quent1Pr]

How is it possible to search in a rails admin list with "OR" multiple filters ?

It possible to add conditions but only with "AND".

The open Search box will use OR to join across configured fields. You can also customize the search for a configured model.

rails_admin/lib/rails_admin/adapters/active_record.rb

Lines 130 to 140 in c7f907c

	if config.list.search_by
	scope.send(config.list.search_by, query)
	else
	wb = WhereBuilder.new(scope)
	fields.each do |field|
	value = parse_field_value(field, query)
	wb.add(field, value, field.search_operator)
	end
	# OR all query statements
	wb.build
	end

Does this help address what you're looking for?

@codealchemy Thank you for your answer.

I'm concerning about how to join filters and not the search box.
OR is used to join across configured fields but AND is used if we add filters with the same field multiple times.

Here is an example of input that will use AND

I think OR would be more appropriate in this case. It's impossible to a field to be exactly two different things. I have opened #3442 about that.

Has this functionality been added? Double checking before I write my own methods.

It's not added, that's why this issue is still open. Attempts were made like #3445 and #3696, but we're yet to solve this problem cleanly enough.
