reactable-arc
Advanced tools
This is a
reactablefork to enable react-hot-loader to work. I will extend it further to support React-16.
Fast, flexible, and simple data tables in React.
Reactable allows you to display tabular data client-side, and provides sorting, filtering, and pagination over that data. It uses the power of React.js to do all this very, very quickly, and provides an API that makes simple things easy, while trying to get out of your way as much as possible if you want to do something complicated or unconventional.
This project is currently alpha-stage, which means the API may or may not be unstable and there might be hidden bugs lurking around any corner. I'll try to tag any releases with breaking changes, however, and the more people who use this the faster we can get to 1.0!
Note: As of version 0.12.0 Reactable will only continue to support React 0.14 and higher.
npm install [--save] reactable-arc
Or, you can just download the raw file here.
That file can be used either as an AMD module, as a CommonJS module in Node, or,
if neither are supported, will register the Reactable object as a property of
the window object.
Reactable also exposes a set of CommonJS modules for piece-by-piece use with
Node, Webpack, Browserify, etc. These modules are located in the lib folder
at the root of this repositiory.
Keep in mind that Reactable depends on the latest version of React (0.14), which can be downloaded here
The simplest example:
var Table = Reactable.Table;
ReactDOM.render(
<Table className="table" data={[
{ Name: 'Griffin Smith', Age: 18 },
{ Age: 23, Name: 'Lee Salminen' },
{ Age: 28, Position: 'Developer' },
]} />,
document.getElementById('table')
);
While pretty basic, this example demonstrates a couple things:
<table>toString() methodYou can also manually build up your rows using Reactable.Tr nested in a table,
also using the data prop, but this time containing only one javascript object.
This approach can be freely combined with the data property on the <Table>,
and is useful if you want to specify per-row attributes such as classes, like so:
var Table = Reactable.Table,
Tr = Reactable.Tr;
ReactDOM.render(
<Table className="table" data={[
{ name: 'Row one', content: 'These are regular data rows' },
{ name: 'Row two', content: 'They work like above' },
]} >
<Tr className="special-row"
data={{ name: 'Other Row' , content: 'This is a different row' }} />
</Table>,
document.getElementById('table')
);
If you want to customize the rendering of individual columns, you can go a level
deeper by embedding a Reactable.Td inside your Reactable.Tr. These have the
required column property, and an optional value property if you want to
customize the data that's used for sorting and filtering - if the latter isn't
specified, the data used will default to the Td's children.
Example:
var Table = Reactable.Table,
Tr = Reactable.Tr,
Td = Reactable.Td;
ReactDOM.render(
<Table className="table" id="table">
<Tr>
<Td column="Name" data="Griffin Smith">
<b>Griffin Smith</b>
</Td>
<Td column="Age">18</Td>
</Tr>
<Tr>
<Td column="Name">Lee Salminen</Td>
<Td column="Age">23</Td>
</Tr>
<Tr>
<Td column="Position">Developer</Td>
<Td column="Age">28</Td>
</Tr>
</Table>,
document.getElementById('table')
);
To override inferring the column list from the attributes of the passed data
objects, you can either:
columns array property to the <Table> component, which can be
either:
key and label property.
The key property is the attribute of the row object from which to retrieve
value, and the label is the text to render in the column header row.<Thead> component as the first child of the <Table>, with
<Th> components as children (note the exclusion of a <Tr> here),
each of which should have a "column" property. The children of these <Th>
components (either strings or React components themselves) will be used to
render the table headers. For example:var Table = Reactable.Table,
Thead = Reactable.Thead,
Th = Reactable.Th,
Tr = Reactable.Tr,
Td = Reactable.Td;
ReactDOM.render(
<Table className="table" id="table">
<Thead>
<Th column="name">
<strong className="name-header">First Name, Last Name</strong>
</Th>
<Th column="age">
<em className="age-header">Age, years</em>
</Th>
</Thead>
<Tr>
<Td column="name" data="Griffin Smith">
<b>Griffin Smith</b>
</Td>
<Td column="age">18</Td>
</Tr>
<Tr>
<Td column="name">Lee Salminen</Td>
<Td column="age">23</Td>
</Tr>
<Tr>
<Td column="position">Developer</Td>
<Td column="age">28</Td>
</Tr>
</Table>,
document.getElementById('table')
);
In this example, the position column will not be rendered.
Reactable also supports specifying a <tfoot> for your table, via the
Reactable.Tfoot class. Per the HTML spec, there can only be one <Tfoot> per
table and its only children should be React.DOM <tr> elements (not
<Reactable.Tr> elements).
If you don't want to go all the way down the JSX rabbit hole to render
individual cells as HTML, and you know your source data is safe, you can wrap
strings in Reactable.unsafe to prevent their content from being escaped, like
so:
var Table = Reactable.Table,
unsafe = Reactable.unsafe;
ReactDOM.render(
<Table className="table" id="table" data={[
{
'Name': unsafe('<b>Griffin Smith</b>'),
'Github': unsafe('<a href="https://github.com/glittershark"><img src="https://d2k1ftgv7pobq7.cloudfront.net/images/services/8cab38550d1f23032facde191031d024/github.png"></a>')
},
{
'Name': unsafe('<b>Ian Zhang</b>'),
'Github': unsafe('<a href="https://github.com/lofiinterstate"><img src="https://d2k1ftgv7pobq7.cloudfront.net/images/services/8cab38550d1f23032facde191031d024/github.png"></a>')
},
]}/>,
document.getElementById('table')
);
You can also pass in unsafe strings as column labels or in a <Reactable.Th>
You can also use pagination, by just specifying an itemsPerPage argument to
the <Table> component. Include an optional pageButtonLimit argument to
customize the number of page buttons in the pagination, which defaults to 10.
For example:
<Table className="table" data={[
{ Name: 'Griffin Smith', Age: '18' },
{ Age: '23', Name: 'Lee Salminen' },
{ Age: '28', Position: 'Developer' },
{ Name: 'Griffin Smith', Age: '18' },
{ Age: '30', Name: 'Test Person' },
{ Name: 'Another Test', Age: '26', Position: 'Developer' },
{ Name: 'Third Test', Age: '19', Position: 'Salesperson' },
{ Age: '23', Name: 'End of this Page', Position: 'CEO' },
]} itemsPerPage={4} pageButtonLimit={5} />
You can also change the default text on the buttons by including the
previousPageLabel and nextPageLabel props.
To enable sorting on all columns, just specify sortable={true} on the
<Table> component. For further customization, ie disabling sort or using a
custom sort function on a per-column basis, you can pass an array to sortable,
which contains either string column names or column objects.
We've pre-built some sort functions for you.
CaseInsensitive will sort strings alphabetically regardless of
capitalization (e.g. Joe Smith === joe smith)Date will sort dates using JavaScript's native Date parser (e.g. 4/20/2014
12:05 PM)Currency will sort USD format (e.g. $1,000.00)Numeric will parse integer-like strings as integers (e.g. "1")NumericInteger will parse integer strings (use Numeric if you might have floats)To specify a custom sort function, use the following structure for the column object:
{column: 'Column Name', sortFunction: function(a, b){
return a > b ? 1 : -1;
}}
You can also specify a default sort by passing in either a column name by
itself, or an object with a column and a direction paramenter of either asc
or desc. If no direction is specified, the default sort will be ascending.
Example:
{column: 'Column Name', direction: 'asc' }
Combined example:
<Table className="table" id="table" data={[
{ Name: 'Lee Salminen', Age: '23', Position: 'Programmer'},
{ Name: 'Griffin Smith', Age: '18', Position: 'Engineer'},
{ Name: 'Ian Zhang', Age: '28', Position: 'Developer'}
]}
sortable={[
{
column: 'Name',
sortFunction: function(a, b){
// Sort by last name
var nameA = a.split(' ');
var nameB = b.split(' ');
return nameA[1].localeCompare(nameB[1]);
}
},
'Age',
'Position'
]}
defaultSort={{column: 'Age', direction: 'desc'}}/>
In case you are constructing your table without the data attribute, and the cells contain some additional HTML elements, you can use the value property on the Td element to define the value to sort for.
In the following example we define two TDs, where the first contains some additional markup. We tell the Td to take "Griffin Smith" as value for data handling (filter or sort).
var Table = Reactable.Table,
Tr = Reactable.Tr,
Td = Reactable.Td;
ReactDOM.render(
<Table className="table" id="table" sortable={true}>
<Tr>
<Td column="Name" value="Griffin Smith">
<div>
<span>Some Text or Icon</span>
<b>Griffin Smith</b>
</div>
</Td>
<Td column="Age">18</Td>
</Tr>
</Table>,
document.getElementById('table')
);
There is also an boolean defaultSortDescending option to default the sorting
of a column to descending when clicked:
<Table className="table" id="table" data={[
{ Name: 'Lee Salminen', Age: '23', Position: 'Programmer'},
{ Name: 'Griffin Smith', Age: '18', Position: 'Engineer'},
{ Name: 'Ian Zhang', Age: '28', Position: 'Developer'}
]}
sortable={[
'Age',
'Position'
]}
defaultSort={{column: 'Age', direction: 'desc'}}
defaultSortDescending
You can do simple case-insensitive filtering by specifying a filterable property on the table. This property should contain a list of columns which the filter is performed on. If the filterable property is provided, then an input box with class reactable-filter-input will be prepended to the thead of the table.
Example:
<Table className="table" id="table" data={[
{'State': 'New York', 'Description': 'this is some text', 'Tag': 'new'},
{'State': 'New Mexico', 'Description': 'lorem ipsum', 'Tag': 'old'},
{'State': 'Colorado',
'Description': 'new description that shouldn\'t match filter',
'Tag': 'old'},
{'State': 'Alaska', 'Description': 'bacon', 'Tag': 'renewed'},
]} filterable={['State', 'Tag']} />
There is also a filterBy() function on the component itself which takes a
single string and applies that as the filtered value. It can be used like so:
var table = ReactDOM.render(
<Table className="table" id="table" data={[
{'State': 'New York', 'Description': 'this is some text', 'Tag': 'new'},
{'State': 'New Mexico', 'Description': 'lorem ipsum', 'Tag': 'old'},
{'State': 'Colorado',
'Description': 'new description that shouldn\'t match filter',
'Tag': 'old'},
{'State': 'Alaska', 'Description': 'bacon', 'Tag': 'renewed'},
]} filterable={['State', 'Tag']} />,
document.getElementById('table')
);
table.filterBy('new');
You can also pass in a filterBy prop to control the filtering outside of the
Table component:
var table = ReactDOM.render(
<Table className="table" id="table" data={[
{'State': 'New York', 'Description': 'this is some text', 'Tag': 'new'},
{'State': 'New Mexico', 'Description': 'lorem ipsum', 'Tag': 'old'},
{'State': 'Colorado',
'Description': 'new description that shouldn\'t match filter',
'Tag': 'old'},
{'State': 'Alaska', 'Description': 'bacon', 'Tag': 'renewed'},
]} filterable={['State', 'Tag']}
filterBy="new" />,
document.getElementById('table')
);
If you are using your own input field to control the filterBy prop, you can
hide the build-in filter input field with the hideFilterInput prop:
var table = ReactDOM.render(
<Table className="table" id="table" data={[
{'State': 'New York', 'Description': 'this is some text', 'Tag': 'new'},
{'State': 'New Mexico', 'Description': 'lorem ipsum', 'Tag': 'old'},
{'State': 'Colorado',
'Description': 'new description that shouldn\'t match filter',
'Tag': 'old'},
{'State': 'Alaska', 'Description': 'bacon', 'Tag': 'renewed'},
]} filterable={['State', 'Tag']}
filterBy="new"
hideFilterInput />,
document.getElementById('table')
);
These can be useful if you want to roll your own filtering input field outside of Reactable.
You can also provide your own custom filtering functions:
<Table className="table" id="table" data={[
{'State': 'New York', 'Description': 'this is some text', 'Tag': 'new'},
{'State': 'New Mexico', 'Description': 'lorem ipsum', 'Tag': 'old'},
{'State': 'Colorado',
'Description': 'new description that shouldn\'t match filter',
'Tag': 'old'},
{'State': 'Alaska', 'Description': 'bacon', 'Tag': 'renewed'},
]}
filterable={[
{
column: 'State',
filterFunction: function(contents, filter) {
// case-sensitive filtering
return (contents.indexOf(filter) > -1);
}
},
'Tag'
]} />
Your filter function must return a boolean. Refraining from specifying a custom filter function will default to case-insensitive filtering.
If the table is initialized without any <Tr>s or with an empty array for
data, you can display text in the body of the table by passing a string
for the optional noDataText prop:
var table = ReactDOM.render(
<Table
className="table"
id="table" data={[]}
noDataText="No matching records found." />,
document.getElementById('table')
);
You can pass functions to the following props of <Reactable.Table> to provide
event handlers.
Called when the sorting in the table changes.
This handler will be passed an object that contains the column name that is being sorted by, and the direction it is being sorted:
{
column: 'Name',
direction: -1
}
Called every time the filtering changes.
This handler will be passed a string containing the text that's being used for filtering.
Called every time the page changes.
This handler will be passed a number representing the current page, zero based.
