Date range filter not working with function as data

[khung]

I'm trying to use the range_date filter with a function in either the columns.render property or the columns.data property of the DataTable. However, yadcf does not seem to work with either one. This seems related to issue #95 but the script does not even reach the changed code.

Using a function in the columns.render property gives incorrect filter results as yadcf uses the _aData value rather than the _aFilterData value:

var table = $("#reqtable").DataTable( {
    "ajax": 'test.txt',
    "columnDefs": [
        {
            "targets": 0,
            "render": function ( data, type, row, meta ) {
                var jsDate = new Date(row[0] * 1000);
                return $.datepicker.formatDate("mm/dd/yy", jsDate);
            }
        }
    ]
} );
yadcf.init(table, [
    {   column_number: 0,
        filter_type: "range_date"
    }
]);

Using a function in the columns.data property throws an error "dot_refs.split is not a function":

var table = $("#reqtable").DataTable( {
    "ajax": 'test.txt',
    "columnDefs": [
        {
            "targets": 0,
            "data": function ( row, type, val, meta ) {
                if (type !== 'set') {
                    var jsDate = new Date(row[0] * 1000);
                    return $.datepicker.formatDate("mm/dd/yy", jsDate);
                }
            }
        }
    ]
} );
yadcf.init(table, [
    {   column_number: 0,
        filter_type: "range_date"
    }
]);

please provide a minimal jsbin that reproduces the issue to speed up the fix.

I'm not certain if this is the proper way to create the jsbin, but this should be all the code needed:

The columns.data example does not seem to work with DOM-sourced data, and JS Bin does not seem to have a way to get AJAX-sourced data. Hopefully you can test that in some other way.

you can use a static file to feed the ajax source, just like I did in the showcase see second table, you can get the sources of the showcase from its github repo .

Or you can also provide a link to your webapp

Thanks for the hint. I've tweaked the jsbin to work with AJAX:

You can add/remove the leading / in the //* lines to comment or uncomment the columns.render and columns.data properties to see the behavior of either one.

fixed in 0.8.9.beta.30 , see jsbin sample
