How to filter an object array using checkbox with angular?

Question

I'm currently stuck on a problem with angular. I try to filter an object array using checkbox but it doesn't work. I would try to filter my array by status.

I already try to use "ng-true-value" when i check the checkbox but it seems it doesn't work because of my object array.

mockdata.service.ts :

export class MockDataService {
  House: Array<object> = [];

  constructor() {}

  getHouse() {
    let options = {min:100, max:500}
    const types = ["Maison","Appartement","Bureau","Batiment publique"];
    const status = ["En cours","Prêt à publier","Déjà publié","Informations manquantes"];
    // const status = [1,2,3,4,5];
    for (let i = 0; i < 1; i++) {
      const randomTypes = Math.floor(Math.random()*types.length);
      const randomStatus = Math.floor(Math.random()*status.length);
      this.House.push({
        id: faker.random.uuid(),
        owner: faker.company.companyName(),
        username: faker.internet.userName(),
        street: faker.address.streetAddress(),
        city: faker.address.city(),
        garden: faker.random.number(),
        img: faker.image.city(),
        surface: faker.random.number(options),
        title: faker.lorem.word(),
        type: types[randomTypes],
        projectStatus: status[randomStatus],
        date: faker.date.recent(10)
      });
    }

    return of(this.House);
  }

project-list.component.html :

<input type="checkbox" name="checkbox" [(ngModel)]="checkboxStatus" ng-true-value="'En cours'" ng-false-value="''">
<tr *ngFor="let information of House | filter:searchText | filter:checkboxStatus">

I would like to have 3 checkboxes and when I check a checkbox, the object array displayed as a list should filter by this checkbox.

Thanks for your help !

You can do that in the following way :

---

if you want Single-select

---

something.component.html

    <input type="checkbox" id="ckb" (change)="onCheck($event,'En cours')"  name="En_cours" value="En cours">
    <tr *ngFor="let information of House | search: searchText | filter: filterKey">

something.component.ts

filterKey: string = '';
searchKeyWord: string = '';
onCheck(event,$value){
  if ( event.target.checked ) {
     this.filterKey= $value;
  }
  else
  {
     this.filterKey= '';
  }
}

search.pipe.ts

import { Pipe, PipeTransform } from '@angular/core';

@Pipe({
  name: 'search'
})
export class SearchPipe implements PipeTransform {

  transform(items: any, term: any): any {
    if (term === undefined) return items;

    return items.filter(function(item) {
      for(let property in item){

        if (item[property] === null){
          continue;
        }
        if(item[property].toString().toLowerCase().includes(term.toString().toLowerCase())){
          return true;
        }

       }
      return false;
    });
  }

}

filter.pipe.ts

import { Pipe, PipeTransform } from '@angular/core';

@Pipe({
  name: 'filter'
})

export class FilterPipe implements PipeTransform {
  transform(items: any[], filterText: string): any[] {
    if(!items) return [];
    if(!filterText) return items;
filterText = filterText.toLowerCase();
return items.filter( it => {
      return it['projectStatus'].toString().toLowerCase().includes(filterText);
    });
   }

}

---

If Multi-Select then make few changes to above code :

---

something.component.html

 <input type="checkbox" id="ckb" (change)="onCheck($event,'En cours')"  name="En_cours" value="En cours">
 <tr *ngFor="let information of House | search: searchText | filter: filterKeys">

something.component.ts

filterKeys = [];
searchKeyWord: string = '';
onCheck(event,$value){
  if ( event.target.checked ) {
     this.filterKeys.push($value);
  }
  else
  {
     this.filterKeys.splice(this.filterKeys.indexOf($value), 1);
  }
}

filter.pipe.ts

import { Pipe, PipeTransform } from '@angular/core';

@Pipe({
  name: 'filter'
})

export class FilterPipe implements PipeTransform {
  transform(array: any[], query:string[]):any[] {
  if (typeof array === 'object') {
   var resultArray = [];
   if (query.length === 0) {
     resultArray = array;
   }
   else {
     resultArray = (array.filter(function (a) {
      return ~this.indexOf(a.projectStatus);
    }, query));
   }
   return resultArray;
 }
 else {
  return null;
  }
 }

}
