Searching is one of the most important components of your web application. Let's take an example of an E-commerce platform where there are thousand...

Nice tutorial :) One comment - you don't really need to set the filtered results on the state in this case. I'd just filter the people according to the search term during render:
Here's a sandbox.
Thank you, that was really helpful! One quastion: do you know how to make the search accept two seach parameters? like i want to search base on the name and also the address?
This what i tried, and failed :(
I think it'd be
const results = !searchTerm && !searchTerm2
instead of||
otherwise the filtering will be applied only of both search terms are present.i came up with this solution and it works now but only if one of the conditions is true. I want to make the method filter the two conditions in the same time. So like i want to know all the people that their name is Alex and lives in New york
For your specific case you can do like this:
However, note that the filter won't be applied unless both search terms are present.
Yah but that is exactly what i don't want. I want that the user can choose one of the filters or both of them in the sametime
Hello! In the end you found the solution?
Since setState is asynchronous isn’t it better to use useEffect to handle this side effect? Please explain if I’m wrong here.
In this case
setState
will cause a re-render so the component will be rendered with the new value of filter, which is then applied to the filtered array before displaying the final results.I still think
useEffect
is a better approach (readable, maintainable), because calculating search in reality will be a side effect and could be left asynchronous, and not block rendering. When the search calculation is complete, by setting state we can trigger a re-render with the search results instead of blocking rendering, during the typing of a search term.The functional component itself is the
render
function, I prefer to leave it as it is and use helper functions to perform side effects. But this is just my opinion, what do you think?The two approaches are functionally similar. The main difference is that with
useEffect
approach you introduce extra unnecessary code, plus saving unnecessary values to the state, which can be derived at render time. This is similar to the discussion of storing derived data onto the state.It's not that
useEffect
approach is wrong here, it's just that it can be simplified :)Got it, I'm learning a lot about React from this conversation. Thank you for the link :')
Sure thing! :) I also wrote an article about some of the common mistakes with React:

Hi Alex.. Can you make a component in react functional hooks which has sort, filter & search feature using your method?
The final result should be a single element which can be mapped to show the cards accordingly and It should not alter the existing data in the array but re-arrange/show accordingly.
I have a sample data as below:
const data = [
{
_id: "dress1",
image: "/images/fans.jpg",
title: "shirt",
description:
"This is for all the latest trends, no matter who you are, where you’re from and what
you’re up to. Exclusive to ASOS, our universal brand is here for you, and comes in all our fit ranges: ASOS Curve, Tall, Petite and Maternity. Created by us, styled by you.",
availableSizes: ["X", "L", "XL", "XXL"],
price: 29.9584
},
{
_id: "dress2",
image: "/images/mcb.jpg",
title: "Pants",

availableSizes: ["X", "M", "L"],

}];

Any suggestions?
My search isn't working
Actually, the search is working. I didn't realize that I had to type lower case. Can that be removed? Most people will start typing names in upper case (at least the first letter).
Excellent!
thanks a lot !! you made my day..
Great.
One nitpick here: Make sure you trim your string for searching. Trim removes all the spaces at the start and end of the string.
This is great for simple arrays, but what about arrays of objects and you want the search to be broader in scope. For instance if you want to search a fitness class (which is an object) by name, or by duration, or by intensity or any other property

Love it ! Simple and easy to follow. Thanks alot
Hi!
What If I have in a separated component the Search Bar from the list of results? I want to know how can I send the results to a parent component :)
Thx bro
when i try to use this code to filter i m facing this kind of error again and again please help
TypeError: oldData.toLowerCase is not a function
Hi, thank you for this post, it was very helpful. I was wondering, is there a way to make the list hidden, and only show when the user is actually searching?
Search only starts with a small letter. It doesn't work with the big one
helpful, thanks.
Thanks for this!
Great post
It was realy helpful, thanks!
Maybe somebody know how to implement a feature which would highlight the searched results in the list?
Such a detailed post! helped a lot to understand hooks. Much appreciated.
How do I change the code if I want people to display as a list by default, without typing something in the searchbox?
Has anyone built a search app that has a form that the user submits and then display the results?
thanks bro
