@swordlib/grid v9.2.0

Declarative Canvas Grid

Canvas table grid to render large set of tabular data. Uses virtualization similar to react-window and React-Konva for primitives such as Rect, Text, Shape etc

Demo | Usage | Wiki

Features

• :electron: React powered declarative library
• :100: Virtualized: Only visible cells are rendered
• :bulb: Performant: Canvas implementation - 55-60fps (re-render) and 40-60fps (scroll)
• :scroll: Supports scrolling using native scrollbars
• :computer: Supports both Fixed and Variable sized grids
• :fire: Freeze rows and columns
• :white_square_button: Merge rows and columns
• :hand: Resizable headers
• :deciduous_tree: Create Tree tables
• :musical_keyboard: Keyboard accessible
• :page_with_curl: Pagination sync/async
• :hammer_and_wrench: Fully typed API written in TypeScript
• :rainbow: Full Theming and Context Support
• :anchor: Fill handle support
• :feet: Customizable undo/redo support
• :iphone: Mobile/Touch device support
• :muscle: Highly customizable using react-konva

Why another canvas grid library

Born out of frustration, having to deal with complicated imperative canvas libraries, I wanted to create something easy to understand and declarative in nature. This Grid primitive is built on top of React Konva making it easy to customize and extend. Take a look at the storybook to learn more.

Installation

npm

npm install @swordlib/grid --save

yarn

yarn add @swordlib/grid

Compatiblity

Konva grid will work in any browser that supports react, konva and canvas element.

Integrations/Examples

Konva Grid is a pure renderer, that will work with many third-party table plugins

1. React-table

https://github.com/rowsncolumns/grid/tree/master/examples/react-table

Uses react-table to create grouped headings and rows, and display on Konva Grid

2. Excel worksheet

https://github.com/rowsncolumns/grid/tree/master/examples/excel-worksheet

3. Zustand - More control over cell level re-rendering

https://github.com/rowsncolumns/grid/tree/master/examples/zustand

More examples coming soon.

Usage

import { Grid, Cell } from '@swordlib/grid'
import { Group, Text, Rect } from 'react-konva'

const App = () => {
  const data = {
    [[1, 2]]: 'Hello world'
  }

  return (
    <Grid
      rowCount={100}
      columnCount={100}
      width={800}
      height={800}
      rowHeight={(rowIndex) => 20}
      columnWidth={(columnIndex) => 100}
      itemRenderer={(props) => (
        <Cell
          {...props}
          value={
            data[[props.rowIndex, props.columnIndex]]
          }
        />
      )}
    />
  )
}

Props

This is the list of props that are meant to be used to customise the konva-grid behavior.

Methods

scrollTo({ scrollLeft, scrollTop }

Scrolls the grid to a specified x,y position relative to the container

resetAfterIndices({ rowIndex, columnIndex })

Imperatively trigger re-render of the grid after specified rowIndex or columnIndex

getScrollPosition()

Get the current scroll position of the grid.

const gridRef = useRef()
const { scrollLeft, scrollTop } = gridRef.current.getScrollPosition()

isMergedCell({ rowIndex, columnIndex })

Check if a cell at a coordinate is a merged cell

getCellBounds({ rowIndex, columnIndex })

Returns a selection IArea for a particular cell. Useful to get selection area of a merged cell

getCellCoordsFromOffsets(x , y)

Returns exact rowIndex and columnIndex from a x and y cordinate. Useful if you want to get cell coords based on mouse position

getCellOffsetFromCoords({ rowIndex, columnIndex })

Returns offset position { x, y, width, height } of a cell

stage

Access Konva stage instance

const gridRef = useRef()

<Grid
  ref={gridRef}
>

const stage = gridRef.current.stage

Passing Contexts

React Konva uses react-reconciler to create a custom React renderer. Which means Top Level Context is not available inside the canvas. We provide a simple wrapper prop to pass Context to the Grid

const ThemeContext = React.createContext({})
const theme = { color: 'yellow' }
<Grid
  wrapper={(children) => {
    return (
      <ThemeContext.Provider value={theme}>
        {children}
      </ThemContext.Provider>
    )
  }}
/>

This will let you use ThemeContext in any of the React Konva components. To access theme inside Cell, you could do

const Cell = ({ x, y, width, height }) => {
  const theme = useContext(ThemeContext)

  return (
    <Rect
      fill={theme.color}
      x={x}
      y={y}
      width={width}
      height={height}
    >
  )
}
