Je crois que vous devez utiliser une fonction de recherche externe (personnalisée). $.fn.DataTable.ext.search afin de ne rechercher que les textes des boutons (si c'est ce que vous cherchez à faire).
Vous pouvez trouver le Démonstration ci-dessous :
//Sample source data
const srcData=[
{title:'apple',cat:'fruit',score:'good'},
{title:'strawberry',cat:'berry',score:'good'},
{title:'broccoli',cat:'vegie',score:'bad'},
{title:'durian',cat:'fruit',score:'bad'}
];
//Global variable for button text custom search
var buttonText = '';
//DataTables initialization
const dataTable = $('#mytable').DataTable({
dom: 't',
data: srcData,
columns: [
{title: 'title', data: 'title'},
{title: 'category', data: 'cat'},
//render score property as a button
{title: 'score', data: 'score', render: (data, type, row, meta) => `<button>${data == 'good' ? 'Love it!' : 'Hate it!'}</button>`}
],
});
//Append <tfoot> and searchbars
$('#mytable').append('<tfoot><tr></tr></tfoot>');
dataTable.columns().every(function () {
$('#mytable tfoot tr').append(`<td><input colindex="${this.index()}"></input></td>`);
});
//Custom search function across button text only
$.fn.DataTable.ext.search.push((settings, row, rowIndex, rowData, counter) => $(dataTable.row(rowIndex).node()).find('td:eq(2) button').text().toLowerCase().includes(buttonText) || buttonText == '');
//Listen for 'keyup' in <tfoot> searchbars
$('#mytable').on('keyup', 'tfoot td input', function () {
const colindex = $(this).attr('colindex');
//If it's input in 3-rd column (colindex==2)
//simply assign global variabl and re-draw
//table to apply custom search
if (colindex == 2) buttonText = $(this).val().toLowerCase();
//Otherwise search by corresponding column
else dataTable.column(colindex).search($(this).val());
dataTable.draw();
});
tfoot td {
padding-left: 10px !important
}
