Joydeep-react-datatable NPM

Documentation

The Datatable component is a flexible and customizable table component for rendering and manipulating tabular data in React applications. It provides features like searching, sorting, and row selection, making it a versatile tool for displaying data.

Installation

To use the Datatable component in your React application, you need to install it as a dependency.

npm install joydeep-react-datatable

Usage

Importing the Component

Import the Datatable component and the utility functions as follows:

import { Datatable, defaultSearch, defaultSort } from "joydeep-react-datatable";

Defining Columns

Define an array of column configurations for the table using the Columns function. Each column should have a unique key, a label for the header, and can be marked as sortable. You can also provide a custom value function to render column data.

function Columns() {
  return [
    {
      key: "id",
      label: "Id",
      sortable: true,
    },
    {
      key: "name",
      label: "Name",
      sortable: true,
    },
    {
      key: "email",
      label: "Email",
      sortable: true,
    },
    {
      key: "edit",
      label: "Edit",
      value: (row) => <a href={`/edit/${row.id}`}>edit</a>,
    },
  ];
}

Handling Data

Manage your data and state using the React useState hook. You can use the search and sort functions to update the data state based on user interactions. Additionally, you can use the getApiParams function to capture and handle API-related parameters.

const [data, setData] = useState(json);
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(false);

function search(key) {
  const searchData = defaultSearch({ data: json, key: key });
  setData(key.length ? searchData : json);
}

function sort(key, direction) {
  setData(defaultSort({ data, key: key, direction: direction }));
}

function getApiParams(data) {
  console.log(data);
}
