Installation

There are 2 ways to install this package:

NPM / Yarn

• Install using:

  npm install sortable-tables

  or

  yarn add sortable-tables

• Include scripts either by:

  import 'sortable-tables/dist/sortable-tables.min';
  import 'sortable-tables/dist/sortable-tables.min.css';

  require('sortable-tables/dist/sortable-tables.min');
  require('sortable-tables/dist/sortable-tables.min.css');

Manually

• Download both dist/sortable-tables.min and dist/sortable-tables.min.css files and add them to your project
• Load both files to your document:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/sortable-tables.min.css">
<script src="path/to/sortable-tables.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Usage

• Add sortable-tables.js and sortable-tables.css to your page -or their minified versions-.
• Add the class scrollbar-outer to the <table> you wanna make sortable.
• Add a <thead> to your table with one <tr> and make sure all cell elements in it are <th>
• Add a <tbody> to your table and make sure all cell elements in it are <td>

That's it. View the example file for a demo.

Additional Tips

• If there is a column of data that is mainly a numerical value but has special symbols like $ or % that would cause the alphabetical order to fail, add the class numeric-sort to the <th> element corresponding to that column
• If you are using FontAwesome v4 you can add class sortable-fa-icons to <table> to use FontAwesome sort icon instead of default unicode icons.
