Persisting Filters

Edit this page

Persisting filters allow your application to save the filters the authenticated user has submitted. Then the saved filters will be reused if the page is displayed again.

Enable Filters Persistence

By default, filters persistence is disabled. You can enable it in your sonata_admin configuration :

# config/packages/sonata_admin.yaml

sonata_admin:
    persist_filters: true

Choose the persistence strategy

When you enable the filters persistence by setting persist_filters to true. SonataAdmin will use the default filter persister : Sonata\AdminBundle\Filter\Persister\SessionFilterPersister (which is, by now, the only one provided).

You can implement your own filter persister by creating a new class that implements the Sonata\AdminBundle\Filter\Persister\FilterPersisterInterface interface and registering it as a service. Then the only thing to do is to tell SonataAdmin to use this service as filter persister.

Globally :

# config/packages/sonata_admin.yaml

sonata_admin:
    persist_filters: true
    filter_persister: filter_persister_service_id

Per Admin :

# config/services.yaml

services:
    app.admin.user:
        class: App\Admin\UserAdmin
        tags:
            -
                name: sonata.admin
                model_class: App\Entity\User
                manager_type: orm
                filter_persister: filter_persister_service_id

Disable filters persistence for some Admin

When you enable the filters persistence by setting persist_filters to true. All registered Admins will have the feature enabled.

You can disable it per Admin if you want.

services:
    app.admin.user:
        class: App\Admin\UserAdmin
        tags:
            - { name: sonata.admin, model_class: App\Entity\User,  manager_type: orm, persist_filters: false }

Note

Both persist_filters and filter_persister can be used globally and per-admin, which provide you the most flexible way to configure this feature.
