angular7-material-table v1.0.2

Angular7 material table

This project extends @angular/material table based on angular4-material-table.Thanks to Ignacio Rossi.

It extends the MatTableDataSource in order to include a row structure, allowing row creation, inline row edition, deletion and validation.

Supported angular versions:

• Angular 7

Installation

To install the package run:

npm install angular7-material-table

Use

Useful data and methods

Using this extension, you can set meterial table datasource with an instance of TableDataSource.

Using TableDataSource allows you to have some row related methods and data to implement add/edit/remove elements:

class TableElement<T> {
  id: number;
  editing: boolean;
  currentData?: T;
  originalData: T;
  source: TableDataSource<T>;
  validator: FormGroup; // Used only in reactive forms.

  delete(): void;
  confirmEditCreate(): boolean;
  startEdit(): void;
  cancelOrDelete(): void;
  isValid(): boolean; // Used only in reactive forms.
}

class TableDataSource<T> {

  constructor(
    data: T[],
    dataType?: new () => T,
    validatorService?: ValidatorService,
    config = { prependNewElements: false, suppressErrors: false });

  datasourceSubject: Subject<T[]>;

  updateDatasource(data: T[], options = { emitEvent: true }): void;

  createNew(): void;

  getRow(id: number): TableElement<T>;
}

Optional libraries

Optional libraries used in the example:

"@angular/forms": "~7.2.0", // <- For inline validation "font-awesome": "4.7.0"
