Magento 2 : Custom column filter with serialize data in UI grid

Question

I added product name column in my module ui grid. In my database, it's save product id.

I display successfully product name in column by product id. But, filter not working when I search by product name.

I just want to add custom field in collection when I do filter.

Current grid collection array :

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [id] => 1
            [rule_title] => {"1":"Rule 1","2":"Rule 1"}
            [status] => 1
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [id] => 2
            [rule_title] => {"1":"Rule 2","2":"Rule 2"}
            [status] => 1
        )
)

Want array like this :

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [id] => 1
            [rule_title] => {"1":"Rule 1","2":"Rule 1"}
            [status] => 1
            [rule_name] => Rule 1
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [id] => 2
            [rule_title] => {"1":"Rule 2","2":"Rule 2"}
            [status] => 1
            [rule_name] => Rule 2
        )
)

How to do that?

Any help would be appreciated !!

Thanks.

I also face same issue and solved by this below code :

app/code/Vendor/Module/Model/ResourceModel/Page/Grid/Collection.php

protected function _renderFiltersBefore() {
    $filters = $this->request->getParam('filters');
    if (isset($filters['your_field'])) {
        $match = sprintf('%%%s%%', substr($this->serializer->serialize(['your key' => $filters['your_field']]), 1, -1));
        $this->addFieldToFilter('your_field', ['like' => $match]);
    }
    parent::_renderFiltersBefore();
}

You need to inject this below class in your construct of Collection.php file

\Magento\Framework\App\RequestInterface $request
\Magento\Framework\Serialize\Serializer\Json $serializer

Your data is like :

{"1":"Rule 1","2":"Rule 1"}

Then, you can do like this

$match = sprintf('%%%s%%', substr($this->serializer->serialize(['1' => "Rule 1"]), 1, -1));

Hope, It will helpful for you.
