```html
<anura-filters adapter="some-adapter" scope="aside > *" insert-before="anura-reset"></anura-reset>
```

A dropdown-like component that offers additional filters, based on the available metadata (i.e. `<anura-select>`, `<anura-text>` or `<anura-date>`, depending on the type).

## Attributes

### adapter

> **required: yes**, live: no, default: -

With which adapter to talk to (to load the metadata from)

`<anura-filters adapter="#my-adapter"></anura-filters>`

### scope

> **required: probably**, live: on-load, default: document

Where your other (existing) filters live, so their checkbox is already checked initially.

`<anura-filters scope="#my-sidebar"></anura-filters>`

### insert-before

> required: no, live: yes, default: -

Where new filters should be inserted, before the configured component (e.g. `anura-reset`).

`<anura-filters insert-before="anura-reset"></anura-filters>`

### insert-after

> required: no, live: yes, default: itself

Where new filters should be inserted, after the configured component (e.g. `anura-counter`). Default is the component itself.

`<anura-filters insert-after="anura-searchbar"></anura-filters>`

### update-search

> required: no, live: on-change, default: 'anura-gallery,anura-table,anura-map'

When adding new filters, view-components should probably know - this defines what queries to use. Note that this simply bumps their existing `search=` attribute, so it in turn should use a query that is generic enough to "catch" the new filter as well, e.g. `#sidebar > *`. This will also trigger an update on the view, in order to update the facets, unless the adapter specified `facets="false"`.

`<anura-filters update-search="#my-gallery"></anura-filters>`

### allowlist

> required: no, live: on-load, default: -

Only show metadata fields listed in this (comma-separated) list. The nature of the keys is specific to the implementation of the adapter. Check the `value` of the checkbox in the UI.

`<anura-filters allowlist="123,456"></anura-filters>`

### denylist

> required: no, live: on-load, default: -

Don't show metadata fields listed in this (comma-separated) list. **Ignored when an allowlist is defined**. The nature of the keys is specific to the implementation of the adapter. Check the `value` of the checkbox in the UI.

`<anura-filters denylist="789"></anura-filters>`
