Multiple matching filter

How to make multiple matching filter from docs /users?filter[name]=seb,freek

@foreach(\App\User::get()->pluck("name")->unique() as  $name)
<a href="{{ route('products.index', array_merge(request()->query(),  [ 'filter[name]' => $name  ] ) )  }}" >{{$name}}</a>
@endforeach

Hi, I'm not sure what you mean. What is the request url you want to use and what do you want it to do?

Maybe this as example from docs /users?filter[name]=seb,freek . How to make links (not from url) in blade to be able to accept the array as in the example seb,freek?

I had another question, which may be a bug. Nobody answered me.

Spatie example: has a bug to show same (double) key, not ok... ?filter%5Bname%5D=adidas&filter%5Bname%5D=puma
$products = QueryBuilder::for(Product::class)
->allowedFilters('name', AllowedFilter::exact('size') )
->get();

Laravel raw example show only last "clicked" key, that is okay... ?filter%5Bname%5D=adidas
$name = $request->input('name');
$size = $request->input('size');
$products= Product::when($request->get('name'), function ($query, $name) {
return $query->where('name', $name);
})->when($request->get('size'), function ($query, $size) {
return $query->where('size', $size);
})->get();

I think you were almost there for your initial question. Something like this will make a link that has all the users in the filter:

@php
$users = \App\User::get()->pluck("name")->unique();
@endphp

<a href="{{ route('products.index', array_merge(request()->query(),  [ 'filter[name]' => compact($users)  ] ) )  }}" >Filter all users</a>

What you describe as a bug is actually intended by the HTTP spec: having the same query parameter twice will overwrite the first one.

Good luck!

With this code, I dont have any query string.
