Reloading DataTable.js fnServer fnDraw

Question

First, I run all data types using the following code (there are more options, but I add a minimum for this example). The below code works and runs all the data, if the datatable has a search, it initializes with fnServerParamsparameters. (the parameters go to the function on the code and work).

var dt = jQuery(".dataTable");
if(jQuery().dataTable && dt.length > 0) {
    dt.each(function () {
        var e = {
            sPaginationType: "full_numbers",
        };
        // If has external filters
        if(!!jQuery(this).data("searchbox")) {
            var search_box = jQuery(jQuery(this).data("searchbox"));

            var additional_filters = [];
            jQuery.each(search_box.find('input,select'), function(i, v){
                additional_filters.push({
                    name: jQuery(v).attr('name'),
                    value: jQuery(v).val()
                });
            });

            if (additional_filters.length > 0) {
                e.fnServerParams = function (aoData) {
                    for (var i=0; i < additional_filters.length; i++) {
                        var filter = additional_filters[i];
                        aoData.push( { "name": filter.name, "value": filter.value } );
                    }
                }
            }
        }
        jQuery(this).dataTable(e);
    });
}

The problem is that I call my function with the RefreshDataTables()click / change event. In this function, I used this simplified version to update:

PS: all the code below should be interpreted as inside RefreshDataTables()

var dt = jQuery(".dataTable");
if(jQuery().dataTable && dt.length > 0) {
    dt.each(function () {
        var $oTable = jQuery(this).dataTable();
        $oTable.fnDraw();
    });
}

But it does not update the changes on the inputs / selects the search. he retains the same from the previous. So I tried this code base for this answer :

var dt = jQuery(".dataTable");
if(jQuery().dataTable && dt.length > 0) {
    dt.each(function () {
        var $oTable = jQuery(this).dataTable();
        var search_box = jQuery(jQuery(this).data("searchbox"));

        var additional_filters = [];

        jQuery.each(search_box.find('input,select'), function(i, v){
            additional_filters.push({
                name: jQuery(v).attr('name'),
                value: jQuery(v).val()
            });
        });

        if (additional_filters.length > 0) {
            $oTable._fnServerParams = function (aoData) {
                for (var i=0; i < additional_filters.length; i++) {
                    var filter = additional_filters[i];
                    aoData.push( { "name": filter.name, "value": filter.value } );
                }
            }
        }
        $oTable.fnDraw();
    });
}

INPUT SELECT . , .

, , INPUT SELECT , fnServerParams.

fnServerParams.

var dt = jQuery(".dataTable");
if(jQuery().dataTable && dt.length > 0) {
    dt.each(function () {
        var e = {
            sPaginationType: "full_numbers",
            fnServerParams: function(aoData){
                // If has external filters
                if(!!jQuery(this).data("searchbox")) {
                    var search_box = jQuery(jQuery(this).data("searchbox"));

                    var additional_filters = [];
                    jQuery.each(search_box.find('input,select'), function(i, v){
                        additional_filters.push({
                            name: jQuery(v).attr('name'),
                            value: jQuery(v).val()
                        });
                    });

                    if (additional_filters.length > 0) {
                        for (var i=0; i < additional_filters.length; i++) {
                            var filter = additional_filters[i];
                            aoData.push( { "name": filter.name, "value": filter.value } );
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        };

        jQuery(this).dataTable(e);
    });
}

RefreshDataTables() $oTable.fnDraw() .
