Usage

Adding sort to table headers

To add sorting behavior and styling to a set of table headers, add ts-sort-header to each header and provide an id that will identify it. These headers should be contained within a parent element with the tsSort directive, which will emit a sortChange event when the user triggers sorting on the header.

Users can trigger the sort header through a mouse click or keyboard action. When this happens, the tsSort will emit an sortChange event that contains the ID of the header triggered and the direction to sort (asc or desc).

Changing the sort order

By default, a sort header starts its sorting at asc and then desc. Triggering the sort header after desc will remove sorting.

To reverse the sort order for all headers, set the tsSortStart to desc on the tsSort directive. To reverse the order only for a specific header, set the start input only on the header instead.

To prevent the user from clearing the sort sort state from an already sorted column, set tsSortDisableClear to true on the tsSort to affect all headers, or set disableClear to true on a specific header.

Disabling sorting

If you want to prevent the user from changing the sorting order of any column, you can use the tsSortDisabled binding on the ts-sort, or the disabled on an single ts-sort-header.
