JavaFX TableView Filtering with Pagination (Together) - javafx

Question

I did some research on TableView's Filtering and Pagination separately.
Filtering : this post helped me as my need
Pagination : this, this post helped me also
I want to combine them together like so:
In Details --------------
I tried to make the pagination functionality first and it worked,
secondly, when i would start typing to the TextField filter functionality will match/filter the data from ObservableList, then rearrange the pagination according to the matched data size and show them through the table like the Datatable's search and pagination does and that's what i wanted, but i failed
My Code ...
PersonTableController.java
public class PersonTableController {
#FXML private TextField filterField;
#FXML private TableView<Person> personTable;
#FXML private TableColumn<Person, Integer> slColumn;
#FXML private TableColumn<Person, String> firstNameColumn;
#FXML private TableColumn<Person, String> lastNameColumn;
#FXML private Pagination pagination;
private ObservableList<Person> masterData = FXCollections.observableArrayList();
private int dataSize;
private int rowsPerPage = 4;
public PersonTableController() {
masterData.add(new Person(1, "Hans", "Muster"));
masterData.add(new Person(2, "Ruth", "Mueller"));
masterData.add(new Person(3, "Heinz", "Kurz"));
masterData.add(new Person(4, "Cornelia", "Meier"));
masterData.add(new Person(5, "Cornelia", "Meier"));
masterData.add(new Person(6, "Werner", "Meyer"));
masterData.add(new Person(7, "Lydia", "Kunz"));
masterData.add(new Person(8, "Anna", "Best"));
masterData.add(new Person(9, "Stefan", "Meier"));
masterData.add(new Person(10, "Hans", "Muster"));
masterData.add(new Person(11, "Ruth", "Mueller"));
masterData.add(new Person(12, "Heinz", "Kurz"));
masterData.add(new Person(13, "Werner", "Meyer"));
masterData.add(new Person(14, "Lydia", "Kunz"));
}
#FXML

filterField.textProperty().addListener((observable, oldValue, newValue) -> {
filteredData.setPredicate(person -> {
if (newValue == null || newValue.isEmpty())
return true;
String lowerCaseFilter = newValue.toLowerCase();
if (person.getFirstName().toLowerCase().indexOf(lowerCaseFilter) != -1) {
return true; // Filter matches first name.
}
return false; // Does not match.
});
});
SortedList<Person> sortedData = new SortedList<>(filteredData);
sortedData.comparatorProperty().bind(personTable.comparatorProperty());
// personTable.setItems(sortedData);
slColumn.setCellValueFactory(new PropertyValueFactory<Person, Integer>("sl"));

changeTableView(0, rowsPerPage);
}
private void changeTableView(int index, int limit) {
int fromIndex = index * limit;
int toIndex = Math.min(fromIndex + limit, dataSize);

personTable.getItems().clear();

any help :) plz

here is my simple solution to your problem:

import javafx.scene.control.TableView;
import javafx.scene.control.TextField;
import java.net.URL;
import java.util.ResourceBundle;
public class Controller implements Initializable {
#FXML
private TextField filterField;
#FXML
private TableView<Person> personTable;
#FXML
private TableColumn<Person, Integer> slColumn;
#FXML
private TableColumn<Person, String> firstNameColumn;
#FXML
private TableColumn<Person, String> lastNameColumn;
#FXML
private Pagination pagination;
private static final int ROWS_PER_PAGE = 4;
private ObservableList<Person> masterData = FXCollections.observableArrayList();
private FilteredList<Person> filteredData;
#Override
public void initialize(URL location, ResourceBundle resources) {
setupData();
filteredData = new FilteredList<>(masterData, p -> true);
filterField.textProperty().addListener((observable, oldValue, newValue) -> {
filteredData.setPredicate(
person -> newValue == null || newValue.isEmpty() || person.getFirstName().toLowerCase()
.contains(newValue.toLowerCase()) || person.getLastName().toLowerCase()

changeTableView(pagination.getCurrentPageIndex(), ROWS_PER_PAGE);
});

pagination.setPageCount(totalPage);
pagination.setCurrentPageIndex(0);
changeTableView(0, ROWS_PER_PAGE);
pagination.currentPageIndexProperty().addListener(
(observable, oldValue, newValue) -> changeTableView(newValue.intValue(), ROWS_PER_PAGE));
}
public void setupData() {
masterData.add(new Person(1, "Hans", "Muster"));

}
private void changeTableView(int index, int limit) {
int fromIndex = index * limit;
int toIndex = Math.min(fromIndex + limit, masterData.size());
int minIndex = Math.min(toIndex, filteredData.size());
SortedList<Person> sortedData = new SortedList<>(
FXCollections.observableArrayList(filteredData.subList(Math.min(fromIndex, minIndex), minIndex)));
sortedData.comparatorProperty().bind(personTable.comparatorProperty());
personTable.setItems(sortedData);
}
class Person {
private final IntegerProperty sl;

public Person(Integer sl, String firstName, String lastName) {
this.sl = new SimpleIntegerProperty(sl);
this.firstName = new SimpleStringProperty(firstName);
this.lastName = new SimpleStringProperty(lastName);
}
public int getSl() {
return sl.get();
}
public IntegerProperty slProperty() {
return sl;
}
public String getFirstName() {
return firstName.get();
}
public StringProperty firstNameProperty() {
return firstName;
}
public String getLastName() {
return lastName.get();
}
public StringProperty lastNameProperty() {
return lastName;
}
}
}
The table filtering begins on the first page, and if it "overflows" then on the second and so on. This is the expected result?
P.S. I refactored/simplified a little bit the code, like replace the inner classes with lambdas and removed a few unnecessary element + extended the filtering to last name, to get a larger amount of filter possibility, but you can use them as you want.
