### Filter using fluent filter

>Note: This feature is currently in preview and may not work as expected.
PnPjs supports a fluent filter for all OData endpoints, including the items endpoint. this allows you to write a strongly fluent filter that will be parsed into an OData filter.

```TypeScript
import { spfi } from "@pnp/sp";
import "@pnp/sp/webs";
import "@pnp/sp/lists";

const sp = spfi(...);

const r = await sp.web.lists.filter(l => l.number("ItemCount").greaterThan(5000))();
```

The following field types are supported in the fluent filter:

- Text
- Choice
- MultiChoice
- Number
- Date
- Boolean
- Lookup
- LookupId

The following operations are supported in the fluent filter:

| Field Type | Operators/Values |
| -------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| All field types | `equal`, `notEqual`, `in`, `notIn` |
| Text & choice fields | `startsWith`, `contains` |
| Numeric fields | `greaterThan`, `greaterThanOrEqual`, `lessThan`, `lessThanOrEqual` |
| Date fields | `greaterThan`, `greaterThanOrEqual`, `lessThan`, `lessThanOrEqual`, `isBetween`, `isToday` |
| Boolean fields | `isTrue`, `isFalse`, `isFalseOrNull` |
| Lookup | `id`, Text, Number |

#### Complex Filter

For all the regular endpoints, the fluent filter will infer the type automatically, but for the list items filter, you'll need to provide your own types to make the parser work.

You can use the `and` and `or` operators to create complex filters that nest different grouping.

```TypeScript
import { spfi } from "@pnp/sp";
import "@pnp/sp/webs";
import "@pnp/sp/lists";
import "@pnp/sp/items";

const sp = spfi(...);

interface ListItem extends IListItem {
FirstName: string;
LastName: string;
Age: number;
Manager: IListItem;
StartDate: Date;
}


// Get all employees named John
const r = await sp.web.lists.getByTitle("ListName").items.filter<ListItem>(f => f.text("FirstName").equal("John"))();

// Get all employees not named John who are over 30
const r1 = await sp.web.lists.getByTitle("ListName").items.filter<ListItem>(f => f.text("FirstName").notEqual("John").and().number("Age").greaterThan(30))();

// Get all employees that are named John Doe or Jane Doe
const r2 = await sp.web.lists.getByTitle("ListName").items.filter<ListItem>(f => f.or(
f.and(
f.text("FirstName").equal("John"),
f.text("LastName").equal("Doe")
),
f.and(
f.text("FirstName").equal("Jane"),
f.text("LastName").equal("Doe")
)
))();

// Get all employees who are managed by John and start today
const r3 = await sp.web.lists.getByTitle("ListName").items.filter<ListItem>(f => f.lookup("Manager").text("FirstName").equal("John").and().date("StartDate").isToday())();
```

### Retrieving PublishingPageImage

The PublishingPageImage and some other publishing-related fields aren't stored in normal fields, rather in the MetaInfo field. To get these values you need to use the technique shown below, and originally outlined in [this thread](https://github.com/SharePoint/PnP-JS-Core/issues/178). Note that a lot of information can be stored in this field so will pull back potentially a significant amount of data, so limit the rows as possible to aid performance.
