Angular TableSort

Angular TableSort is an AngularJS directive that helps you create sortable tables, e.g. by clicking on the table header. This directive does not create any HTML output, so you can use it with your HTML structure as needed. You are also not limited to using it with tables - it's just the most common use-case.

Note: This library is for AngularJS 1.x only!

Dependencies

Angular TableSort depends on AngularJS 1.x.

Installation

• Via npm: npm install --save angular-table-sort
• Via git: git clone git@github.com:beachmachine/angular-table-sort.git

Examples

Crating a sortable table

In the following example we have a data structure holding data of persons. We use data binding to generate a table containing these persons' data. We also want the first name and last name in one column, though they are stored in separate fields. The name should be the initially sorted column.

To make things a bit clearer, this is what the persons data structure looks like:

[
  {
    "first_name": "First name 1",
    "last_name": "Last name 1",
    "email": "firstname1@lastname1.com"
  },
  {
    "first_name": "First name 2",
    "last_name": "Last name 2",
    "email": "firstname2@lastname2.com"
  },
  {
    "first_name": "First name 3",
    "last_name": "Last name 3",
    "email": "firstname3@lastname3.com"
  }
]

Declare dependency on Angular TableSort for your main application:

(function() {
    var app = angular.module('app', [
        'ngTableSort'
    ])
})();

This is how to create the table:

<table table-sort>
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th table-sort-field="first_name + ' ' + last_name"
                table-sort-initial
                ng-click="tableSort()">
                <span>Name</span>
                <i class="fa" ng-class="{'fa-sort-desc': reverse(), 'fa-sort-asc': !reverse()}" ng-show="current()" aria-hidden="true"></i>
            </th>
            <th table-sort-field="email"
                table-sort-reverse-initial
                ng-click="tableSort()">
                <span>Email</span>
                <i class="fa" ng-class="{'fa-sort-desc': reverse(), 'fa-sort-asc': !reverse()}" ng-show="current()" aria-hidden="true"></i>
            </th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <tr ng-repeat="person in tableSort(vm.persons) track by person.email">
            <td>{{ person.first_name }} {{ person.last_name }}</td>
            <td>{{ person.email }}</td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>
