Dynamic default backend list filter

[envas]

When creating a dynamic list of group filter options, we can use a method name in the modelClass model. But I did not found a way how to set a default filter dynamically.

Example: I have only one status table for all my models

Model Status

id    group    code     name
-----------------------------------------
1    QUO     ACT       Quote active
2    QUO     ACC       Quote accepted
3    QUO     DEC       Quote declined 
4    ORD     CRE       Order created
5    ORD     SHP       Order shipped
6    ORD     INV       Order invoiced

To create a filter group for my quotations I can create a function

public function getQuoteOptions()
    {
        return Status::where('group','=','QUO')->lists('name', 'id');
    }

and reference the function in my config_filter.yaml scope options

scopes:
   status:
      label: 'Status'
      conditions: quote_status_id in (:filtered)
      modelClass: Vendor\Plugin\Models\Status
      fromName: name
      options: getQuoteOptions

works fine. But now I would like to set the initial filter (filter active when a user opens the list view) for active quotations only. I created a similar method

public function getQuoteDefaultOptions()
    {
        return Status::where('group','=','QUO')->where('code','=','ACT')->lists('name','id');
    }

and I tried to add the reference to the function in my filter definition

   default: getQuoteDefaultOptions

and this does not work, it looks like the defaults must be hardcoded. Any idea?

@envas You can use the options callback for both cases. I assume that you are using another scope that will change the options available in this particular filter, so what you can do is make this status scope depend on another scope, and use it's value to determine whether you need to change the query for the available options.

The Filter Dependencies section in the Docs details this some more, and should hopefully lead you on the right path.
