I can use the backend list widget without a model

Questions
#1

Can I use the backend list widget without a model, just with an array or json? Without having to create a model, table, etc.

I would really like to use the list tool and all its search, sorting, and filtering power, but I don’t want to create a model to use it, since the data is temporary from a dynamic report.

#2

without model probably search features and other are not available as well. model is primary for connecting with database. you must create model, but probably use other kind of connector or wrapper that will implement funcionality similiar to pdo to be able to search like list widgets.

#3

I thought there was a way to reuse the list structure, but apparently not, it is tied only to models, what a shame.

#4

What actually do You want to do?

#5

All those features are provided by SQL, so it wouldn’t be easy…

Take a look at this package which could unlock those features:
