# react-bootstrap-table2-editor
`react-bootstrap-table2` separate the cell edit code base to [`react-bootstrap-table2-editor`](https://github.com/react-bootstrap-table/react-bootstrap-table2/tree/develop/packages/react-bootstrap-table2-editor), so there's a little bit different when you use cell edit than `react-bootstrap-table`. In the following, we are going to show you how to enable the cell edit
**[Live Demo For Cell Edit](https://react-bootstrap-table.github.io/react-bootstrap-table2/storybook/index.html?selectedKind=Cell%20Editing)**
**[API&Props Definitation](https://react-bootstrap-table.github.io/react-bootstrap-table2/docs/cell-edit-props.html)**
-----
## Install
```sh
$ npm install react-bootstrap-table2-editor --save
```
## How
We have [two ways](https://react-bootstrap-table.github.io/react-bootstrap-table2/docs/cell-edit-props.html#celleditmode-string) to trigger a editable cell as editing cell:
* click
* dbclick
That's look into how we enable the cell edit on tabe:
```js
import cellEditFactory from 'react-bootstrap-table2-editor';
// omit
```
How user save their new editings? We offer two ways:
* Press ENTER(**default**)
* Blur from current editing cell(Need to enable the [cellEdit.blurToSave](https://react-bootstrap-table.github.io/react-bootstrap-table2/docs/cell-edit-props.html#celleditblurtosave-bool))
## Editable Cell
`react-bootstrap-table2` support you to configure the cell editable on three level:
* Row Level ([cellEdit.nonEditableRows](https://react-bootstrap-table.github.io/react-bootstrap-table2/docs/cell-edit-props.html#celleditnoneditablerows-function))
* Column Level (Configure [column.editable](https://react-bootstrap-table.github.io/react-bootstrap-table2/docs/column-props.html#columneditable-bool-function) as bool value)
* Cell Level (Configure [column.editable](https://react-bootstrap-table.github.io/react-bootstrap-table2/docs/column-props.html#columneditable-bool-function) as a callback function)
## Validation
[column.validator](https://react-bootstrap-table.github.io/react-bootstrap-table2/docs/column-props.html#columnvalidator-function) will help you to work on it!
## Customize Style/Class
### Editing Cell
* Customize the editing cell style via [column.editCellStyle](https://react-bootstrap-table.github.io/react-bootstrap-table2/docs/column-props.html#columneditcellstyle-object-function)
* Customize the editing cell classname via [column.editCellClasses](https://react-bootstrap-table.github.io/react-bootstrap-table2/docs/column-props.html#columneditcellclasses-string-function)
### Editor
* Customize the editor style via [column.editorStyle](https://react-bootstrap-table.github.io/react-bootstrap-table2/docs/column-props.html#columneditorstyle-object-function)
* Customize the editor classname via [column.editoClasses](https://react-bootstrap-table.github.io/react-bootstrap-table2/docs/column-props.html#columneditorclasses-string-function)
## Rich Editors
`react-bootstrap-table2` have following predefined editor:
* Text(Default)
* Dropdown
* Date
* Textarea
* Checkbox
In a nutshell, you just only give a [column.editor](https://react-bootstrap-table.github.io/react-bootstrap-table2/docs/column-props.html#columneditor-object) and define the `type`:
```js
import { Type } from 'react-bootstrap-table2-editor';
const columns = [
..., {
dataField: 'done',
text: 'Done',
editor: {
type: Type.SELECT | Type.TEXTAREA | Type.CHECKBOX | Type.DATE,
... // The rest properties will be rendered into the editor's DOM element
}
}
]
```
In the following, we go though all the predefined editors:
### Dropdown Editor
Dropdown editor give a select menu to choose a data from a list. When use dropdown editor, either `editor.options` or `editor.getOptions` should be required prop.
#### editor.options
This is most simple case for assign the dropdown options data directly.
```js
import { Type } from 'react-bootstrap-table2-editor';
const columns = [
..., {
dataField: 'type',
text: 'Job Type',
editor: {
type: Type.SELECT,
options: [{
value: 'A',
label: 'A'
}, {
value: 'B',
label: 'B'
}, {
value: 'C',
label: 'C'
}, {
value: 'D',
label: 'D'
}, {
value: 'E',
label: 'E'
}]
}
}];
```
#### editor.getOptions
It is much flexible which accept a function and you can assign the dropdown options dynamically.
There are two case for `getOptions`:
* *Synchronous*: Just return the options array in `getOptions` callback function
* *Asynchronous*: Call `setOptions` function argument when you get the options from remote.
```js
// Synchronous
const columns = [
..., {
dataField: 'type',
text: 'Job Type',
editor: {
type: Type.SELECT,
getOptions: (setOptions, { row, column }) => [.....]
}
}];
// Asynchronous
const columns = [
..., {
dataField: 'type',
text: 'Job Type',
editor: {
type: Type.SELECT,
getOptions: (setOptions, { row, column }) => {
setTimeout(() => setOptions([...]), 1500);
}
}
}];
```
[here](https://react-bootstrap-table.github.io/react-bootstrap-table2/storybook/index.html?selectedKind=Cell%20Editing&selectedStory=Dropdown%20Editor%20with%20Dynamic%20Options) is an online example.
### Date Editor
Date editor is use ``, the configuration is very simple:
```js
const columns = [
..., {
dataField: 'inStockDate',
text: 'Stock Date',
formatter: (cell) => {
let dateObj = cell;
if (typeof cell !== 'object') {
dateObj = new Date(cell);
}
return `${('0' + dateObj.getUTCDate()).slice(-2)}/${('0' + (dateObj.getUTCMonth() + 1)).slice(-2)}/${dateObj.getUTCFullYear()}`;
},
editor: {
type: Type.DATE
}
}];
```
### Textarea Editor
Textarea editor is use ``, user can press `ENTER` to change line and in the `react-bootstrap-table2`, user allow to save result via press `SHIFT` + `ENTER`.
```js
const columns = [
..., {
dataField: 'comment',
text: 'Product Comments',
editor: {
type: Type.TEXTAREA
}
}];
```
### Checkbox Editor
Checkbox editor allow you to have a pair value choice, the `editor.value` is required value to represent the actual value for check and uncheck.
```js
const columns = [
..., {
dataField: 'comment',
text: 'Product Comments',
editor: {
type: Type.CHECKBOX,
value: 'Y:N'
}
}];
```
## Customize Editor
If you feel above predefined editors are not satisfied to your requirement, you can certainly custom the editor via [column.editorRenderer](https://react-bootstrap-table.github.io/react-bootstrap-table2/docs/column-props.html#columneditorrenderer-function). It accept a function and pass following arguments when function called:
* `editorProps`: Some useful attributes you can use on DOM editor, like class, style etc.
* `value`: Current cell value
* `row`: Current row data
* `column`: Current column definition
* `rowIndex`: Current row index
* `columnIndex`: Current column index
> Note when implement a custom React editor component, this component should have a **getValue** function which return current value on editor
> Note when you want to save value, you can call **editorProps.onUpdate** function
Following is a short example:
```js
class QualityRanger extends React.Component {
static propTypes = {
value: PropTypes.number,
onUpdate: PropTypes.func.isRequired
}
static defaultProps = {
value: 0
}
getValue() {
return parseInt(this.range.value, 10);
}
render() {
const { value, onUpdate, ...rest } = this.props;
return [
this.range = node }
type="range"
min="0"
max="100"
/>,
];
}
}
const columns = [
..., {
dataField: 'quality',
text: 'Product Quality',
editorRenderer: (editorProps, value, row, column, rowIndex, columnIndex) => (
)
}];
```
