Yii2 gridview filter by using autocomplete textbox

Before I have used comboBox instead of default(textBox) for searching in the gridview by using this one:

[
    'attribute' => 'project_status', 
    'filter' => $someArray,
    'value' => 'projectstatus.name',
]

But I want to change from comboBox to autocomplete textBox so the search function is still working.

You can actually set an AutoComplete widget as the filter. The following code works for me:

[
    'attribute' => 'project_status',
    'filter' => AutoComplete::widget([
        'model' => $filterModel,
        'attribute' => 'project_status',
        'clientOptions' => [
            'source' => ['USA', 'RUS'],
        ],
    ]),
    'value' => 'projectstatus.name'
]

Although you may have to tweak it a little for proper search to happen upon selecting a value.
