building filtering / sorting functionality like ransack for ruby

[matthewhausman]

I'm curious how anyone here has built a sophisticated application without the ability to do sophisticated sorting / filters on the server side...

I have code that does this for searching sorting for strawberry but it sucks, how can we make this happen?

[matthewhausman]

am I supposed to use this? or is there additional lock in that may be undesirable?

what framework are you using? django? if so, yes 😊

[matthewhausman]

None… just an orm for mongo db

[patrick91]

so the filters you linked are only for django :)

We don't support mongo as an extension, so you'd need to write your own filters and logic, you mentioned that you have some code already, but you don't like it, why?
