npm install vue-tables-2
Require the script:
import {ServerTable, ClientTable, Event} from 'vue-tables-2';
Vue.use(ClientTable, [options = {}], [useVuex = false], [theme = 'bootstrap3'], [template = 'default']);
Or/And:
Vue.use(ServerTable, [options = {}], [useVuex = false], [theme = 'bootstrap3'], [template = 'default']);
useVuex
is a boolean indicating whether to usevuex
for state management, or manage state on the component itself. If you set it totrue
you must add aname
prop to your table, which will be used to register a module on your store. Usevue-devtools
to look under the hood and see the current state.
Note: If you are using
vue-router
or simply toggling the table withv-if
, set thepreserveState
option totrue
.
-
theme
Use this option to select a CSS framework. Options:'bootstrap3','bootstrap4','bulma'. You can also pass you own theme. Use a file from thethemes
folder as boilerplate. -
template
Use this option to select an HTML template. Currently supported: 'default', 'footerPagination' You can also pass your own template. Use a file from thetemplates
folder as boilerplate.
Note: You may need to add a little styling of your own. If you come up with some improvments to the templates or themes, which brings them closer to the optimum, you are welcome to send a PR.
Note: The template is written using
jsx
, so you will need a jsx compiler to modify it (the package is using the compiled version under thecompiled
folder).
If you are not using NPM you can also import the minified version found in dist/vue-tables-2.min.js
.
Copy the file into your project and import it:
<script src="/path/to/vue-tables-2.min.js"></script>
Or, if you prefer, use the CDN version.
This will expose a global VueTables
object containing ClientTable
, ServerTable
and Event
as properties.
E.g:
Vue.use(VueTables.ClientTable);
Add the following element to your page wherever you want it to render. Make sure to wrap it with a parent element you can latch your vue instance into.
<div id="people">
<v-client-table :data="tableData" :columns="columns" :options="options"></v-client-table>
</div>
Create a new Vue instance (You can also nest it within other components). An example works best to illustrate the syntax:
new Vue({
el: "#people",
data: {
columns: ['id', 'name', 'age'],
tableData: [
{ id: 1, name: "John", age: "20" },
{ id: 2, name: "Jane", age: "24" },
{ id: 3, name: "Susan", age: "16" },
{ id: 4, name: "Chris", age: "55" },
{ id: 5, name: "Dan", age: "40" }
],
options: {
// see the options API
}
}
});
You can access the filtered dataset at any given moment by fetching the filteredData
computed property of the table, using ref
as a pointer (this.$refs.myTable.filteredData
); This will return the current page. To access the entire filtered dataset use allFilteredData
instead.
Important: when loading data asynchronously add a
v-if
conditional to the component along with someloaded
flag, so it will only compile once the data is attached.
The client component supports simple grouping of rows by a common value. By simple we mean that the grouping is merely presentational, and not backed by a real model-level data grouping (i.e the data is NOT divided into distinct arrays). you can group by any property on your dataset. For example, for a table of countries you can group by a continent
property. Simply declare in your options groupBy:'continent'
.
If you want to present some additional meta-data realted to each value, you can use the groupMeta
option, along with the dedicated __group_meta
scoped slot. For example:
groupBy:'continent',
groupMeta:[
{
value:'Africa',
data:{
population:1216,
countries:54
}
},
{
value:'Asia',
data:{
population:4436
countries:48
}
},
{
value:'Europe',
data:{
population:741.4,
countries:50
}
}
// etc...
]
<span slot="__group_meta" slot-scope="{ value, data }">
{value} has {data.countries} countries and a population of {data.population} million
</span>
<div id="people">
<v-server-table url="/people" :columns="columns" :options="options"></v-server-table>
</div>
Javascript:
new Vue({
el: "#people",
data: {
columns: ['id', 'name', 'age'],
options: {
// see the options API
}
}
});
All the data is passed in the following GET parameters:
query
,limit
,page
,orderBy
,ascending
,byColumn
.
You need to return a JSON object with two properties:
data
:array
- An array of row objects with identical keys.count
:number
- Total count before limit.
Note: If you are calling a foreign API or simply want to use your own keys, refer to the
responseAdapter
option.
by default the library supports JQuery
, vue-resource
and axios
as ajax libraries.
If you wish to use a different library, or somehow alter the request (e.g add auth headers, or manipulate the data) use the requestFunction
option. E.g:
options: {
requestFunction: function (data) {
return axios.get(this.url, {
params: data
}).catch(function (e) {
this.dispatch('error', e);
}.bind(this));
}
}
Note: when using a custom request function, the url
prop is not required.
I have included an Eloquent implementation for Laravel Users.
If you happen to write other implementations for PHP or other languages, a pull request would be most welcome, under the following guidelines:
- Include the class under
./server/{language}
. - Name it according to convention:
{concrete}VueTables
. - if this is the first implementation in this language add an interface similar to the one found in the PHP folder.
- Have it implement the interface.
- TEST IT.
Oftentimes your dataset will consist of objects, rather than primitive types. By default, the package has no knowledge of how those objects should be presented. To tell the package how to handle those fields you can use one of two options, depending on your needs:
- Decide which primitive property you would like to refer to as the relevant piece of data, by using the dot notation when declaring you
columns
prop. E.g:['name','age','meta.education.degree']
- Use Templates
Option 1 is more simple and straight-forward. However, it disregards all the other properties, which means that sorting, filtering and presentation will all refer to the single piece of primitive data at the "end of the chain".
If you want to use the entire object, option 2 is your best route. This will allow you to incorporate all the properties in the presentation. When using the client component note that:
- Default filtering behaviour will recursively scan the entire object for the query.
- If the column is sortable, you will need to define a sorting algorithm, using the
customSorting
[#custom-sorting] option.
Templates allow you to wrap your cells with vue-compiled HTML. It can be used in any of the following ways:
If you are using Vue 2.1.0 and above, you can use scoped slots to create templates:
<v-client-table :data="entries" :columns="['id', 'name' ,'age', 'edit']">
<a slot="edit" slot-scope="props" class="fa fa-edit" :href="edit(props.row.id)"></a>
</v-client-table>
Note: You can get the index of the current row relative to the entire data set using props.index
The syntax for Virtual DOM function is similar to that of render
functions, as it leverages the virtual DOM to bind the templates into the main table template.
If you choose this option, it is recommended to use JSX, which closely resembles HTML, to write the templates (To compile jsx
you need to install the vue jsx transform).
E.g.:
data: {
columns: ['erase'],
options: {
...
templates: {
erase: function (h, row, index) {
return <delete id = {row.id}>< /delete>
}
}
...
}
}
The first parameter is the h
scope used to compile the element. It MUST be called h
.
The second parameter gives you access to the row data.
In addition a this
context will be available, which refers to the root vue instance. This allows you to call your own instance methods directly.
Note: when using a .vue
file jsx
must be imported from a dedicated .jsx
file in order to compile correctly. E.g
edit.jsx
export default function(h, row, index) {
return <a class='fa fa-edit' href={'#/' + row.id + '/edit'}></a>
}
app.vue
<script>
import edit from './edit'
templates: {
edit
}
</script>
Another option for creating templates is to encapsulate the template within a component and pass the name. The component must have a data
property, which will receive the row object. You can also add an optional index
prop, to get the non-zero-based index of the current row relative to the entire dataset, and an optional column
prop to get the current column. E.g:
Vue.component('delete', {
props: ['data', 'index', 'column'],
template: `<a class='delete' @click='erase'></a>`,
methods: {
erase() {
let id = this.data.id; // delete the item
}
}
});
options: {
...
templates: {
erase: 'delete'
}
...
}
This method allows you to also use single page .vue files for displaying the template data E.g: edit.vue
<template>
<a class="fa fa-edit" :href="edit(data.id)">Edit</a>
</template>
<script>
export default {
props: ['data', 'index'],
}
</script>
app.vue
<script>
import edit from './edit'
templates: {
edit
}
</script>
Important:
- Templates must be declared in the
columns
prop - Don't include HTML directly in your dataset, as it will be parsed as plain text.
Editable cells are currently supported only for the client table.
To ensure editable data is reflected on your original dataset you must use v-model
instead of the data
prop.
Each row in dataset must have a unique identifier. By default its key is set to id
. Use the uniqueKey
option if your dataset has a different identifier.
As always examples work best to illustrate the syntax:
Start by declaring the column(s) you wish to be editable using the editableColumns
option:
{
editableColumns:['text','text2','checkbox']
}
Then use scoped slots to build the logic:
<v-client-table :columns="client.columns" :options="client.options" v-model="client.data">
// update text on the fly
<input type="text" slot="text" slot-scope="{row, update}" v-model="row.text" @input="update">
// update a checkbox
<input type="checkbox" slot="checkbox" slot-scope="{row, update}" v-model="row.checkbox" @input="update">
// update text on submit + toggle editable state + revert to original value on cancel
<div slot="text2" slot-scope="{row, update, setEditing, isEditing, revertValue}">
<span @click="setEditing(true)" v-if="!isEditing()">
{{row.text2}}
</span>
<span v-else>
<input type="text" v-model="row.text2">
<button type="button" @click="update(row.text2); setEditing(false)">Submit</button>
<button type="button" @click="revertValue(); setEditing(false)">Cancel</button>
</span>
</div>
</v-client-table>
In addition to the input
event which is responsible - in conjunction with v-model
- for updating the dataset, an additional update
event is triggered with the following payload:
{row, column, oldVal, newVal}
Child rows allow for a custom designed output area, namely a hidden child row underneath each row, whose content you are free to set yourself.
When using the childRow
option you must pass a unqiue id
property for each row, which is used to track the current state.
If your identifier key is not id
, use the uniqueKey
option to set it.
The syntax is identical to that of templates:
Using Scoped Slots:
<template slot="child_row" scope="props">
<div><b>First name:</b> {{props.row.first_name}}</div>
<div><b>Last name:</b> {{props.row.last_name}}</div>
</template>
Using a function and (optional) JSX:
options:{
...
childRow: function(h, row) {
return <div>My custom content for row {row.id}</div>
}
...
}
Using a component name or a .vue
file: (See Templates above for a complete example)
options:{
...
childRow: 'row-component'
...
}
When the plugin detects a childRow
function it appends the child rows and prepends to each row an additional toggler column with a span
you can design to your liking.
Example styling (also found in style.css
):
.VueTables__child-row-toggler {
width: 16px;
height: 16px;
line-height: 16px;
display: block;
margin: auto;
text-align: center;
}
.VueTables__child-row-toggler--closed::before {
content: "+";
}
.VueTables__child-row-toggler--open::before {
content: "-";
}
You can also trigger the child row toggler programmtically. E.g, to toggle the row with an id of 4:
this.$refs.myTable.toggleChildRow(4); // replace myTable with your own ref
Alternatively, you can use the showChildRowToggler
option to prevent the child row toggler cells from being rendered. (See options)
Call methods on your instance using the ref
attribute.
setPage(page)
setLimit(recordsPerPage)
setOrder(column, isAscending)
setFilter(query)
-query
should be a string, or an object iffilterByColumn
is set totrue
.resetQuery()
- Resets all query inputs (user-request filters) to empty strings.getData()
Get table data using the existing request parameters. Server component only.refresh()
Refresh the table. This method is simply a wrapper for theserverSearch
method, and thus resets the pagination. Server component onlygetOpenChildRows(rows = null)
If no argument is supplied returns all open child row components in the page. To limit the returned dataset you can pass therows
arguemnt, which should be an array of unique identifiers.
Note:
A. This method is only to be used when the child row is a component.
B. In order for this method to work you need to set the name
property on your component to ChildRow
Get properties off your instance using the ref
attribute.
openChildRows
array
The ids of all the currently open child rows
Using Custom Events (For child-parent communication):
<v-server-table :columns="columns" url="/getData" @loaded="onLoaded"></v-server-table>
- Using the event bus:
Event.$on('vue-tables.loaded', function (data) {
// Do something
});
Note: If you are using the bus and want the event to be "namespaced", so you can distinguish bewteen different tables on the same page, use the name
prop.
The event name will then take the shape of vue-tables.tableName.eventName
.
- Using Vuex:
mutations: {
['tableName/LOADED'](state, data) {
// Do something
}
}
vue-tables.filter
/tableName/FILTER
Fires off when a filter is changed. Sends through the name and value in case of column filter, or just the value in case of the general filter
vue-tables.filter::colName
Same as above, only this one has the name attached to the event itself, and only sends through the value.
Releveant only for non-vuex tables with filterByColumn
set to true.
vue-tables.sorted /
tableName/SORTED`
Fires off when the user sorts the table. Sends through the column and direction. In case of multisorting (Shift+Click) an array will be sent sorted by precedence.
vue-tables.loading
/tableName/LOADING
(server)
Fires off when a request is sent to the server. Sends through the request data.
vue-tables.loaded
/tableName/LOADED
(server)
Fires off after the response data has been attached to the table. Sends through the response.
You can listen to those complementary events on a parent component and use them to add and remove a loading indicator, respectively.
vue-tables.pagination
/tableName/PAGINATION
Fires off whenever the user changes a page. Send through the page number.
vue-tables.limit
/tableName/LIMIT
Fires off when the per page limit is changed
vue-tables.error
/tableName/ERROR
(server)
Fires off if the server returns an invalid code. Sends through the error
vue-tables.row-click
/tableName/ROW_CLICK
Fires off after a row was clicked. sends through the row and the mouse event.
When using the client component, if you want to recieve the original row, so that it can be directly mutated, you must have a unique row identifier.
The key defaults to id
, but can be changed using the uniqueKey
option.
For date columns you can use daterangepicker as a filter instead of the normal free-text input. Note that you must import all the dependencies (JQuery + moment.js + daterangepicker) GLOBALLY, i.e on the window
scope. You can check if this is so by typing typeof $().daterangepicker
in the console. If it returns function
you are good to go.
To tell the plugin which columns should be treated as date columns use the dateColumns
option. (E.g: dateColumns:['created_at','executed_at']
).
For the client component the date must be rendered as a moment
object for the filtering to work. You can use the toMomentFormat
option to do that for you. It accepts the current format of the dates in your dataset, and uses it to convert those dates to moment
objects. E.g, if you have a created_at
column with a date like 2017-12-31
, you can use toMomentFormat: 'YYYY-MM-DD'
. To decide the presentation of the dates use the dateFormat
option.
On the server component the filter will be sent along with the request in the following format:
{
query:{
created_at:{
start: '2010-12-31 00:00:00',
end: '2011-12-31 00:00:00'
}
}
}
date presentation on the server component is completely up to you. If you are unable to control the server response, you can use the templates
option to "massage" the date you get from the server into the desired format.
You can modify the default filtering algorithm per column using the filterAlgorithm
option.
For "fake" template columns which are not backed up by a real corresponding property this is a necessity, if you wish the column to be included in the search (either in generic mode or by column).
E.g, Say you have template column called full_name
which combines first and last names; you can define the search algorithm like so:
filterAlgorithm: {
full_name(row, query) {
return (row.first_name + ' ' + row.last_name).includes(query);
}
}
Custom filters allow you to integrate your own filters into the plugin using Vue's events system.
- use the
customFilters
option to declare your filters, following this syntax:
customFilters: [{
name: 'alphabet',
callback: function (row, query) {
return row.name[0] == query;
}
}]
- Using the event bus:
Event.$emit('vue-tables.filter::alphabet', query);
- Using
vuex
:
this.$store.commit('myTable/SET_CUSTOM_FILTER', {filter:'alphabet', value:query})
A. use the customFilters
option to declare your filters, following this syntax:
customFilters: ['alphabet','age-range']
B. the same as in the client component.
When filtering by column (option filterByColumn:true
), the listColumns
option allows for filtering columns whose values are part of a list, using a select box instead of the default free-text filter.
For example:
options: {
filterByColumn: true,
listColumns: {
animal: [{
id: 1,
text: 'Dog'
},
{
id: 2,
text: 'Cat',
hide:true
},
{
id: 3,
text: 'Tiger'
},
{
id: 4,
text: 'Bear'
}
]
}
}
Note: The values of this column should correspond to the
id
's passed to the list. They will be automatically converted to their textual representation.
Adding
hide:true
to an item, will exclude it from the options presented to the user
If you would like to enable the user to control the columns' visibility set the columnsDropdown
option to true
.
This will add a dropdown button to the left of the per-page control. The drop down will contain a list of the columns with checkboxes to toggle visibility.
The columnsDropdown
option can work in conjunction with columnsDisplay
. The rule is that as long as the user hasn't toggled a column himself, the rules you have declared in columnsDisplay
takes precedence. Once the user toggled a column, he is in charge of columns' visibility, and the settings of columnsDisplay
are disregarded.
The cellClasses
option allows you to conditionally add class(es) to the td
element based on predefined conditions.
For example, say you want to add a low-balance
class to cells in a balance
column that has a value of less than 100:
cellClasses:{
balance: [
{
class:'low-balance',
condition: row => row.balance < 100
}
]
}
Sometimes you may one to override the default sorting logic which is applied uniformly to all columns.
To do so use the customSorting
option. This is an object that recieves custom logic for specific columns.
E.g, to sort the name
column by the last character:
customSorting: {
name: function (ascending) {
return function (a, b) {
var lastA = a.name[a.name.length - 1].toLowerCase();
var lastB = b.name[b.name.length - 1].toLowerCase();
if (ascending)
return lastA >= lastB ? 1 : -1;
return lastA <= lastB ? 1 : -1;
}
}
}
This depends entirely on your backend implemetation as the library sends the sorting direction trough the request.
Multiple sorting allows you to sort recursively by multiple columns. Simply put, when the primary column (i.e the column the user is currently sorting) has two or more identical items, their order will be determined by a secondary column, and so on, until the list of columns is exhausted.
Example usage:
{
...
multiSorting: {
name: [
{
column: 'age',
matchDir: false
},
{
column: 'birth_date',
matchDir: true
}
]
}
...
}
The above code means that when the user is sorting by name
and identical names are compared, their order will be determined by the age
column. If the ages are also identical the birth_date
column will determine the order.
The matchDir
property tells the plugin whether the secondary sorting should match the direction of the primary column (i.e ascending/descending), or not.
In addition to programmatically setting the sorting in advance, by default the user can also use Shift+Click to build his own sorting logic in real time.
To disable this option set clientMultiSorting
to false
.
On the server component this behaviour is disabled by default, because it requires addtional server logic to handle the request.
To enable it set serverMultiSorting
to true
. The request will then contain a multiSort
array, if applicable.
Slots allow you to insert you own custom HTML in predefined positions within the component:
beforeTable
: Before the table wrapper. After the controls rowafterTable
: Before the table wrapper.beforeFilter
: Before the global filter (filterByColumn: false
)afterFilter
: After the global filterafterFilterWrapper
: After the global filter wrapperbeforeSearch
: Before the search controlbeforeLimit
: Before the per page controlafterLimit
: After the per page controlbeforeFilters
: Before the filters row (filterByColumn: true
)afterFilters
: After the filters rowprependHead
: After the<thead>
tagbeforeBody
: Before the<tbody>
tagafterBody
: After the<tbody>
tagprependBody
: Prepend to the<tbody>
tagappendBody
: Append to the<tbody>
tag
In addition to these slots you can insert your own filter HTML in the filters row, or add content to the existing filter, e.g a button (When filterByColumn
is set to true
):
A. If you just want your own content make sure that the column is not filterable by omitting it from the filterable
array.
Otherwise the slot content will be appended to the native filter.
B. Create a slot whose name is formatted filter__{column}
(double underscore).
For example, to insert a checkbox on the id
column instead of the normal input filter:
{
filterable:["name","age"] // omit the `id` column
}
<div slot="filter__id">
<input type="checkbox" class="form-control" v-model="allMarked" @change="markAll()">
</div>
Options are set in three layers, where the more particular overrides the more general.
- Pre-defined component defaults.
- Applicable user-defined defaults for the global Vue Instance. Passed as the second paramter to the
Use
statement. - Options for a single table, passed through the
options
prop.
Option | Type | Description | Default |
---|---|---|---|
caption | String | table caption element |
false |
childRow | Function | See documentation | false |
childRowTogglerFirst | Boolean | Should the child row be positioned at the first column or the last one | true |
clientMultiSorting | Boolean | Enable multiple columns sorting using Shift + Click on the client component | true |
toggleGroups (client-side) | Boolean | When using the groupBy option, settings this to true will make group's visibility togglable, by turning the group name into a button |
false |
cellClasses | Object | See documentation | {} |
columnsClasses | Object | Add class(es) to the specified columns. Takes key-value pairs, where the key is the column name and the value is a string of space-separated classes |
{} |
columnsDisplay | Object | Responsive display for the specified columns. Columns will only be shown when the window width is within the defined limits. Accepts key-value pairs of column name and device. Possible values are mobile (x < 480), mobileP (x < 320), mobileL (320 <= x < 480), tablet (480 <= x < 1024), tabletP (480 <= x < 768), tabletL (768 <= x < 1024), desktop (x >= 1024).All options can be preceded by the logical operators min,max, and not followed by an underscore. For example, a column which is set to not_mobile will be shown when the width of the window is greater than or equal to 480px, while a column set to max_tabletP will only be shown when the width is under 768px |
{} |
columnsDropdown | Boolean | See documentation | false |
customFilters | Array | See documentation | [] |
customSorting (client-side) | Object | See documentation | {} |
dateColumns | Array | Use daterangepicker as a filter for the specified columns (when filterByColumn is set to true). Dates should be passed as moment objects, or as strings in conjunction with the toMomentFormat option |
[] |
dateFormat | String | Format to display date objects (client component). Using momentjs. This will also affect the datepicker on both components | DD/MM/YYYY |
dateFormatPerColumn | Object | override the default date format for specific columns | {} |
datepickerOptions | Object | Options for the daterangepicker when using a date filter (see dateColumns) | { locale: { cancelLabel: 'Clear' } } |
datepickerPerColumnOptions | Object | additional options for specific columns, to be merged with datepickerOptions . Expects an object where the key is a column name, and the value is an options object |
{} |
debounce | Number | Number of idle milliseconds (no key stroke) to wait before sending a request. Used to detect when the user finished his query in order to avoid redundant requests (server) or rendering (client) | 500 |
descOrderColumns | Array | By default the initial sort direction is ascending. To override this for specific columns pass them into this option | [] |
destroyEventBus | Boolean | Should the plugin destroy the event bus before the table component is destroyed? Since the bus is shared by all instances, only set this to true if you have a single instance in your page |
false |
editableColumns | Array | Columns that should be editable. See documentation | [] |
filterable | Array / Boolean | Filterable columns true - All columns. |
Set to false or [] to hide the filter(s). Single filter mode (filterByColumn:false ) is also affected |
filterAlgorithm | Object | Define custom filtering logic per column. See documentation | {} |
footerHeadings | Boolean | Display headings at the bottom of the table too | false |
headings | Object | Table headings. | Can be either a string or a function, if you wish to inject vue-compiled HTML.
