Zero Configuration

Using ngxDatatables Directive

@Component({
  template: `
    <table class="display" ngxDatatables>
      <thead>
      <tr>
        <th>Name</th>
        <th>Job Role</th>
      </tr>
      </thead>

      <tbody>
      <tr>
        <td>Tiger Nixon</td>
        <td>System Architect</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td>Garrett Winters</td>
        <td>Accountant</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td>Ashton Cox</td>
        <td>Junior Technical Author</td>
      </tr>
      </tbody>
    </table>
  `
})
export class ZeroConfiguration {
}


@Component({
  template: `
      <table class="display" [data]="data"  ngxDatatables>
        <thead>
        <tr>
          <th>Name</th>
          <th>Job Role</th>
        </tr>
        </thead>
      </table>`
})
export class ZeroConfiguration {
  data: Object[]=[
    ['Tiger Nixon', 'System Architect'],
    ['Garrett Winters', 'Accountant'],
    ['Ashton Cox', 'Junior Technical Author'],
    ['Cedric Kelly', 'Senior Javascript Developer'],
    ['Airi Satou', 'Accountant', 'Tokyo']
  ];
}

Using ngx-datatables Component

@Component({
  template: `
   <ngx-datatables>
    <table class="display">
      <thead>
      <tr>
        <th>Name</th>
        <th>Job Role</th>
      </tr>
      </thead>

      <tbody>
      <tr>
        <td>Tiger Nixon</td>
        <td>System Architect</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td>Garrett Winters</td>
        <td>Accountant</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td>Ashton Cox</td>
        <td>Junior Technical Author</td>
      </tr>
      </tbody>
    </table>
    </ngx-datatables>
  `
})
export class ZeroConfiguration {
}


@Component({
  template: `
    <ngx-datatables [data]="data">
      <table class="display">
        <thead>
        <tr>
          <th>Name</th>
          <th>Job Role</th>
        </tr>
        </thead>
      </table>
    </ngx-datatables>`
})
export class ZeroConfiguration {
  data: Object[]=[
    ['Tiger Nixon', 'System Architect'],
    ['Garrett Winters', 'Accountant'],
    ['Ashton Cox', 'Junior Technical Author'],
    ['Cedric Kelly', 'Senior Javascript Developer'],
    ['Airi Satou', 'Accountant', 'Tokyo']
  ];
}

Javascript sourced data

Javascript sourced data defaults to client-side option

<ngx-datatables [data]="data">
   <ngx-datatables-column header="Name"></ngx-datatables-column>
   <ngx-datatables-column header="Position"></ngx-datatables-column>
   <ngx-datatables-column header="Office"></ngx-datatables-column>
   <ngx-datatables-column header="Extension"></ngx-datatables-column>
   <ngx-datatables-column header="Start Date"></ngx-datatables-column>
   <ngx-datatables-column header="Salary"></ngx-datatables-column>
</ngx-datatables>

 
 export class SampleComponent {
  data: Object[];
  constructor() {
    this.data = [
      ["Tiger Nixon", "System Architect", "Edinburgh", "5421", "2011/04/25", "$320,800"],
      ["Garrett Winters", "Accountant", "Tokyo", "8422", "2011/07/25", "$170,750"],
      ["Ashton Cox", "Junior Technical Author", "San Francisco", "1562", "2009/01/12", "$86,000"],
      ["Cedric Kelly", "Senior Javascript Developer", "Edinburgh", "6224", "2012/03/29", "$433,060"],
      ["Airi Satou", "Accountant", "Tokyo", "5407", "2008/11/28", "$162,700"]
    ];
  }
}

Ajax sourced data

Ajax sourced data defaults to server-side option. The ajax attribute accepts a string url, a function or jquery ajax option.

<ngx-datatables [ajax]="ajax">
   <ngx-datatables-column header="Name"></ngx-datatables-column>
   <ngx-datatables-column header="Position"></ngx-datatables-column>
   <ngx-datatables-column header="Office"></ngx-datatables-column>
   <ngx-datatables-column header="Extension"></ngx-datatables-column>
   <ngx-datatables-column header="Start Date"></ngx-datatables-column>
   <ngx-datatables-column header="Salary"></ngx-datatables-column>
</ngx-datatables>

 
 export class SampleComponent {
  ajax: DataTables.FunctionAjax;
  
  constructor() {
  const data = [
      ["Tiger Nixon", "System Architect", "Edinburgh", "5421", "2011/04/25", "$320,800"],
      ["Garrett Winters", "Accountant", "Tokyo", "8422", "2011/07/25", "$170,750"],
      ["Ashton Cox", "Junior Technical Author", "San Francisco", "1562", "2009/01/12", "$86,000"],
      ["Cedric Kelly", "Senior Javascript Developer", "Edinburgh", "6224", "2012/03/29", "$433,060"],
      ["Airi Satou", "Accountant", "Tokyo", "5407", "2008/11/28", "$162,700"]
    ];
    //simulation of an ajax call
    this.ajax = (dtData: any, callback, settings) => {
      setTimeout(() => {
        callback({
          "draw": dtData.draw,
          "recordsTotal": 57,
          "recordsFiltered": 57,
          data: data
        });
      }, 200);
    };
  }
}

Using Options Settings

The options attribute accepts a DataTables.Settings type. DataTables.Settings has a columns property which is an array of column settings and it is equivalent to the ngx-datatables-column tag Note that the DataTables options columns settings takes precedency if defined.

 <ngx-datatables [options]="options">
    <ngx-datatables-column header="Name"></ngx-datatables-column>
    <ngx-datatables-column header="Position"></ngx-datatables-column>
    <ngx-datatables-column header="Office"></ngx-datatables-column>
    <ngx-datatables-column header="Extension"></ngx-datatables-column>
    <ngx-datatables-column header="Start Date"></ngx-datatables-column>
    <ngx-datatables-column header="Salary"></ngx-datatables-column>
 </ngx-datatables>


 export class SampleComponent {
  options: DataTables.Settings;
  
  constructor() {
  const data = [
      ["Tiger Nixon", "System Architect", "Edinburgh", "5421", "2011/04/25", "$320,800"],
      ["Garrett Winters", "Accountant", "Tokyo", "8422", "2011/07/25", "$170,750"],
      ["Ashton Cox", "Junior Technical Author", "San Francisco", "1562", "2009/01/12", "$86,000"],
      ["Cedric Kelly", "Senior Javascript Developer", "Edinburgh", "6224", "2012/03/29", "$433,060"],
      ["Airi Satou", "Accountant", "Tokyo", "5407", "2008/11/28", "$162,700"]
    ];
    //simulation of an ajax call
    const ajax = (dtData: any, callback, settings) => {
      setTimeout(() => {
        callback({
          "draw": dtData.draw,
          "recordsTotal": 57,
          "recordsFiltered": 57,
          data: data
        });
      }, 200);
    };
  }

  this.options = {
      ajax: ajax,
      "columns": [
        {"data": "field"},
        {"data": "job"},
        {"data": "job"},
        {"data": "job"},
        {"data": "job"}
      ]
    }
}

Using Object Array as Datasource

Below shows multiple ways pass data to ngx-datatables. However note that only one of the three attributes is required, hence the options takes higher precedency. Order of priority is stated as...

  1. options
  2. ajax
  3. data
 <ngx-datatables [data]="data" [ajax]=[ajax] [options]="options">
    <ngx-datatables-column header="Name" field="name"></ngx-datatables-column>
    <ngx-datatables-column header="Position" field="position"></ngx-datatables-column>
    <ngx-datatables-column header="Office" field="office"></ngx-datatables-column>
    <ngx-datatables-column header="Extension" field="extn"></ngx-datatables-column>
    <ngx-datatables-column header="Start Date" field="start_date"></ngx-datatables-column>
    <ngx-datatables-column header="Salary" field="salary"></ngx-datatables-column>
 </ngx-datatables>

 
 export class SampleComponent {
  data:Object[];
  ajax: DataTables.FunctionAjax;
  options: DataTables.Settings;
  
  constructor() {
  this.data = [
      {
        "id": "1", "name": "Tiger Nixon",
        "position": "System Architect",
        "salary": "$320,800",
        "start_date": "2011/04/25",
        "office": "Edinburgh",
        "extn": "5421"
      },
      {
        "id": "2",
        "name": "Garrett Winters",
        "position": "Accountant",
        "salary": "$170,750",
        "start_date": "2011/07/25",
        "office": "Tokyo",
        "extn": "8422"
      },
      {
        "id": "3",
        "name": "Ashton Cox",
        "position": "Junior Technical Author",
        "salary": "$86,000",
        "start_date": "2009/01/12",
        "office": "San Francisco",
        "extn": "1562"
      }
    ];

    //simulation of an ajax call
    this.ajax = (dtData: any, callback, settings) => {
      setTimeout(() => {
        callback({
          "draw": dtData.draw,
          "recordsTotal": 57,
          "recordsFiltered": 57,
          data: this.data
        });
      }, 200);
    };

    this.options = {
        ajax: this.ajax,
        responsive: true,
        searching: false,
        processing: true,
        pagingType: "full_numbers",
        lengthMenu: [20, 50, 100, 200, 500],
        order: [[0, 'desc']]
      }
  }
}

Using Row Selector

<ngx-datatables-column [rowSelector]="true" field="id">
</ngx-datatables-column>

Using Custom Column Content

<ngx-datatables-column header="Thumbnail" field="id">
 <ng-template ngxDatatablesTemplate="body">
    <img src="..."/>
 </ng-template>
</ngx-datatables-column>
Using Row Actions
 <ngx-datatables-column header="Actions" field="id">
      <ng-template ngxDatatablesTemplate="body" let-context>
        <div>
          <a (click)="_onEdit($event,context)" class="btn btn-success" href="javascript:"
             title="Edit">
            <i class="glyphicon glyphicon-pencil"></i>
          </a>
          <a (click)="_onDelete($event,context)" class="btn btn-danger" href="javascript:"
             title="Delete">
            <i class="glyphicon glyphicon-trash"></i>
          </a>
        </div>
      </ng-template>
</ngx-datatables-column>
