Install React Table as a dependency ```bash $ yarn add react-table ``` 2. Import the `react-table` module ```javascript // ES6 import ReactTable from 'react-table' // ES5 var ReactTable = require('react-table').default ``` 3. Import styles by including `react-table.css` ```javascript // JS (Webpack) import 'react-table/react-table.css' // Old-school ``` ##### CDN ```html ``` ## Example ```javascript import ReactTable from 'react-table' render() { const data = [{ name: 'Tanner Linsley', age: 26, friend: { name: 'Jason Maurer', age: 23, } },{ ... }] const columns = [{ header: 'Name', accessor: 'name' // String-based value accessors! }, { header: 'Age', accessor: 'age', render: props => {props.value} // Custom cell components! }, { id: 'friendName', // Required because our accessor is not a string header: 'Friend Name', accessor: d => d.friend.name // Custom value accessors! }, { header: props => Friend Age, // Custom header components! accessor: 'friend.age' }] } ``` ## Data Simply pass the `data` prop anything that resembles an array or object. Client-side sorting and pagination are built in, and your table will update gracefully as you change any props. [Server-side data](#server-side-data) is also supported! ## Props These are all of the available props (and their default values) for the main `` component. ```javascript { // General data: [], loading: false, showPagination: true, showPageSizeOptions: true, pageSizeOptions: [5, 10, 20, 25, 50, 100], defaultPageSize: 20, showPageJump: true, collapseOnSortingChange: true, collapseOnPageChange: true, collapseOnDataChange: true, freezeWhenExpanded: false, defaultSorting: [], showFilters: false, defaultFiltering: [], defaultFilterMethod: (filter, row, column) => { const id = filter.pivotId || filter.id return row[id] !== undefined ? String(row[id]).startsWith(filter.value) : true }, resizable: true, defaultResizing: [], // Controlled State Overrides (see Fully Controlled Component section) page: undefined, pageSize: undefined, sorting: undefined, // Controlled State Callbacks onExpandSubComponent: undefined, onPageChange: undefined, onPageSizeChange: undefined, onSortingChange: undefined, onFilteringChange: undefined, onResize: undefined, // Pivoting pivotBy: undefined, pivotValKey: '_pivotVal', pivotIDKey: '_pivotID', subRowsKey: '_subRows', // Pivoting State Overrides (see Fully Controlled Component section) expandedRows: {}, // Pivoting State Callbacks onExpandRow: undefined, // General Callbacks onChange: () => null, // Classes className: '', style: {}, // Component decorators getProps: () => ({}), getTableProps: () => ({}), getTheadGroupProps: () => ({}), getTheadGroupTrProps: () => ({}), getTheadGroupThProps: () => ({}), getTheadProps: () => ({}), getTheadTrProps: () => ({}), getTheadThProps: () => ({}), getTheadFilterProps: () => ({}), getTheadFilterTrProps: () => ({}), getTheadFilterThProps: () => ({}), getTbodyProps: () => ({}), getTrGroupProps: () => ({}), getTrProps: () => ({}), getThProps: () => ({}), getTdProps: () => ({}), getTfootProps: () => ({}), getTfootTrProps: () => ({}), getTfootThProps: () => ({}), getPaginationProps: () => ({}), getLoadingProps: () => ({}), getNoDataProps: () => ({}), getResizerProps: () => ({}), // Global Column Defaults column: { sortable: true, show: true, minWidth: 100, // Cells only render: undefined, className: '', style: {}, getProps: () => ({}), // Headers only header: undefined, headerClassName: '', headerStyle: {}, getHeaderProps: () => ({}) // Footers only footer: undefined, footerClassName: '', footerStyle: {}, getFooterProps: () => ({}), filterMethod: undefined, hideFilter: false, filterRender: ({filter, onFilterChange}) => ( onFilterChange(event.target.value)} /> ) }, // Global Expander Column Defaults expanderDefaults: { sortable: false, width: 35, hideFilter: true // render: will be overriden in methods.js to display ExpanderComponent }, // Global Pivot Column Defaults pivotDefaults: { filterRender: undefined // render: will be overriden in methods.js to display ExpanderComponent and PivotValueComponent }, // Text previousText: 'Previous', nextText: 'Next', loadingText: 'Loading...', noDataText: 'No rows found', pageText: 'Page', ofText: 'of', rowsText: 'rows', } ``` You can easily override the core defaults like so: ```javascript import { ReactTableDefaults } from 'react-table' Object.assign(ReactTableDefaults, { defaultPageSize: 10, minRows: 3, // etc... }) ``` Or just define them as props ```javascript ``` ## Columns `` requires a `columns` prop, which is an array of objects containing the following properties ```javascript [{ // General accessor: 'propertyName', // or Accessor eg. (row) => row.propertyName (see "Accessors" section for more details) id: 'myProperty', // Conditional - A unique ID is required if the accessor is not a string or if you would like to override the column name used in server-side calls sortable: true, show: true, // can be used to hide a column width: undefined, // A hardcoded width for the column. This overrides both min and max width options minWidth: 100, // A minimum width for this column. If there is extra room, column will flex to fill available space (up to the max-width, if set) maxWidth: undefined, // A maximum width for this column. // Special // Turns this column into a special column for specifying expander and pivot column options. // If this option is true and there is NOT a pivot column, the `expanderDefaults` options will be applied on top of the column options. // If this option is true and there IS a pivot column, the `pivotDefaults` options will be applied on top of the column options. // Adding a column with the `expander` option set will allow you to rearrange expander and pivot column orderings in the table. // It will also let you specify rendering of the header (and header group if this special column is placed in the `columns` option of another column) and // the rendering of the expander itself. expander: false, // Cell Options className: '', // Set the classname of the `td` element of the column style: {}, // Set the style of the `td` element of the column render: JSX eg. (rowInfo: {value, rowValues, row, index, viewIndex}) => {value}, // Provide a JSX element or stateless function to render whatever you want as the column's cell with access to the entire row // value == the accessed value of the column // rowValues == an object of all of the accessed values for the row // row == the original row of data supplied to the table // index == the original index of the data supplied to the table // viewIndex == the index of the row in the current page // Header & HeaderGroup Options header: 'Header Name', a function that returns a primitive, or JSX / React Component eg. ({data, column}) =>
Header Name
, headerClassName: '', // Set the classname of the `th` element of the column headerStyle: {}, // Set the style of the `th` element of the column getHeaderProps: (state, rowInfo, column, instance) => ({}), // a function that returns props to decorate the `th` element of the column // Header Groups only columns: [...], // See Header Groups section below // Footer footer: 'Footer Name' or JSX eg. ({data, column}) =>
Footer Name
, footerClassName: '', // Set the classname of the `td` element of the column's footer footerStyle: {}, // Set the style of the `td` element of the column's footer getFooterProps: (state, rowInfo, column, instance) => ({}), // A function that returns props to decorate the `td` element of the column's footer // Filtering filterMethod: (filter, row, column) => {return true}, // A function returning a boolean that specifies the filtering logic for the column // filter == an object specifying which filter is being applied. Format: {id: [the filter column's id], value: [the value the user typed in the filter field], pivotId: [if filtering on a pivot column, the pivotId will be set to the pivot column's id and the `id` field will be set to the top level pivoting column]} // row == the row of data supplied to the table // column == the column that the filter is on hideFilter: false, // If `showFilters` is set on the table, this option will let you selectively hide the filter on a particular row filterRender: JSX // eg. ({filter, onFilterChange}) => // The value passed to onFilterChange will be the value passed to filter.value of the filterMethod }] ``` ## Accessors Accessors are functions that return the value to populate the row's value for the column. This lets the render function not have to worry about accessing the correct data, the value is automatically populated in it's props. If a `string` or `array` is passed the default accessor is used. The default accessor will parse the input into an array and recursively flatten it. Any values that contain a dot (`.`) will be split. Any values that contain bracket (`[]`) will be split. This array is then used as the path to the value to return. ("$" is the placeholder value that would be returned by the default accessor) | value | path | data | |--------------|-----------------|------------------------| | "a" | ["a"] | {"a": $} | | "a.b" | ["a", "b"] | {"a": {"b": $}} | | "a[0]" | ["a", "0"] | {"a": [$]} | | ["a.b", "c"] | ["a", "b", "c"] | {"a": {"b": {"c": $}}} | *NOTE* If your data has a field/key with a dot (`.`) you will need to supply a custom accessor. ## Column Header Groups To group columns with another header column, just nest your columns in a header column. Header columns utilize the same header properties as regular columns. ```javascript const columns = [{ header: 'Favorites', headerClassName: 'my-favorites-column-header-group' columns: [{ header: 'Color', accessor: 'favorites.color' }, { header: 'Food', accessor: 'favorites.food' } { header: 'Actor', accessor: 'favorites.actor' }] }] ``` ## Custom Cell, Header and Footer Rendering You can use any react component or JSX to display content in column headers, cells and footers. Any component you use will be passed the following props (if available): - `row` - Original row from your data - `rowValues` - The post-accessed values from the original row - `index` - The index of the row - `viewIndex` - the index of the row relative to the current page - `level` - The nesting depth (zero-indexed) - `nestingPath` - The nesting path of the row - `aggregated` - A boolean stating if the row is an aggregation row - `subRows` - An array of any expandable sub-rows contained in this row ```javascript // This column uses a stateless component to produce a different colored bar depending on the value // You can also use stateful components or any other function that returns JSX const columns = [{ header: () => Progress, accessor: 'progress', render: row => (
66 ? '#85cc00' : row.value > 33 ? '#ffbf00' : '#ff2e00', borderRadius: '2px', transition: 'all .2s ease-out' }} />
) }] ``` ## Styles - React-table ships with a minimal and clean stylesheet to get you on your feet quickly. - The stylesheet is located at `react-table/react-table.css`. - There are countless ways to import a stylesheet. If you have questions on how to do so, consult the documentation of your build system. #### Classes - Adding a `-striped` className to ReactTable will slightly color odd numbered rows for legibility - Adding a `-highlight` className to ReactTable will highlight any row as you hover over it #### CSS We think the default styles looks great! But, if you prefer a more custom look, all of the included styles are easily overridable. Every single component contains a unique class that makes it super easy to customize. Just go for it! #### JS Styles Every single react-table element and `get[ComponentName]Props` callback supports `classname` and `style` props. ## Custom Props #### Built-in Components Every single built-in component's props can be dynamically extended using any one of these prop-callbacks: ```javascript ``` These callbacks are executed with each render of the element with four parameters: 1. Table State 2. RowInfo (undefined if not applicable) 3. Column (undefined if not applicable) 4. React Table Instance This makes it extremely easy to add, say... a row click callback! ```javascript // When any Td element is clicked, we'll log out some information { return { onClick: e => { console.log('A Td Element was clicked!') console.log('it produced this event:', e) console.log('It was in this column:', column) console.log('It was in this row:', rowInfo) console.log('It was in this table instance:', instance) } } }} /> ``` You can use these callbacks for dynamic styling as well! ```javascript // Any Tr element will be green if its (row.age > 20) { return { style: { background: rowInfo.row.age > 20 ? 'green' : 'red' } } }} /> ``` #### Column Components Just as core components can have dynamic props, columns and column headers can too! You can utilize either of these prop callbacks on columns: ```javascript const columns = [{ getHeaderProps: () => (...), getProps: () => (...) }] ``` In a similar fashion these can be used to dynamically style just about anything! ```javascript // This columns cells will be red if (row.name === Santa Clause) const columns = [{ getProps: (state, rowInfo, column) => { return { style: { background: rowInfo.row.name === 'Santa Clause' ? 'red' : null } } } }] ``` ## Pivoting and Aggregation Pivoting the table will group records together based on their accessed values and allow the rows in that group to be expanded underneath it. To pivot, pass an array of `columnID`'s to `pivotBy`. Remember, a column's `id` is either the one that you assign it (when using a custom accessors) or its `accessor` string. ```javascript ``` Naturally when grouping rows together, you may want to aggregate the rows inside it into the grouped column. No aggregation is done by default, however, it is very simple to aggregate any pivoted columns: ```javascript // In this example, we use lodash to sum and average the values, but you can use whatever you want to aggregate. const columns = [{ header: 'Age', accessor: 'age', aggregate: (values, rows) => _.round(_.mean(values)), render: row => { // You can even render the cell differently if it's an aggregated cell return {row.aggregated ? `${row.value} (avg)` : row.value} } }, { header: 'Visits', accessor: 'visits', aggregate: (values, rows) => _.sum(values) }] ``` Pivoted columns can be sorted just like regular columns including holding down the `` button to multi-sort. ## Sub Tables and Sub Components By adding a `SubComponent` props, you can easily add an expansion level to all root-level rows: ```javascript { return (
You can put any component you want here, even another React Table! You even have access to the row-level data if you need! Spark-charts, drill-throughs, infographics... the possibilities are endless!
) }} /> ``` ## Server-side Data If you want to handle pagination, sorting, and filtering on the server, `react-table` makes it easy on you. 1. Feed React Table `data` from somewhere dynamic. eg. `state`, a redux store, etc... 1. Add `manual` as a prop. This informs React Table that you'll be handling sorting and pagination server-side 1. Subscribe to the `onChange` prop. This function is called at `compomentDidMount` and any time sorting or pagination is changed by the user 1. In the `onChange` callback, request your data using the provided information in the params of the function (state and instance) 1. Update your data with the rows to be displayed 1. Optionally set how many pages there are total ```javascript { // show the loading overlay this.setState({loading: true}) // fetch your data Axios.post('mysite.com/data', { page: state.page, pageSize: state.pageSize, sorting: state.sorting, filtering: state.filtering }) .then((res) => { // Update react-table this.setState({ data: res.data.rows, pages: res.data.pages, loading: false }) }) }} /> ``` For a detailed example, take a peek at our async table mockup ## Fully Controlled Component React Table by default works fantastically out of the box, but you can achieve even more control and customization if you choose to maintain the state yourself. It is very easy to do, even if you only want to manage *parts* of the state. Here are the props and their corresponding callbacks that control the state of the a table: ```javascript {...}} // Called when the page index is changed by the user onPageSizeChange={(pageSize, pageIndex) => {...}} // Called when the pageSize is changed by the user. The resolve page is also sent to maintain approximate position in the data onSortingChange={(column, shiftKey) => {...}} // Called when a sortable column header is clicked with the column itself and if the shiftkey was held. If the column is a pivoted column, `column` will be an array of columns onExpandRow={(index, event) => {...}} // Called when an expander is clicked. Use this to manage `expandedRows` onFilteringChange={(column, value) => {...}} // Called when a user enters a value into a filter input field or the value passed to the onFilterChange handler by the filterRender option. onResize={(column, event, isTouch) => {...}} // Called when a user clicks on a resizing component (the right edge of a column header) /> ``` ## Functional Rendering Possibly one of the coolest features of React-Table is its ability to expose internal components and state for custom render logic. The easiest way to do this is to pass a function as the child of ``. The function you pass will be called with the following items: - Fully-resolved state of the table - A function that returns the standard table component - The instance of the component You can then return any JSX or react you want! This turns out to be perfect for: - Accessing the internal state of the table without a `ref` - Decorating the table or extending it with your own UI - Building your own custom display logic Accessing internal state and wrapping with more UI: ```javascript {(state, makeTable, instance) => { return (
state.allVisibleColumns === {JSON.stringify(state.allVisibleColumns, null, 4)}
{makeTable()}
) }}
``` The possibilities are endless! ## Multi-Sort When clicking on a column header, hold shift to multi-sort! You can toggle `ascending` `descending` and `none` for multi-sort columns. Clicking on a header without holding shift will clear the multi-sort and replace it with the single sort of that column. It's quite handy! ## Filtering Filtering can be enabled by setting the `showFilters` option on the table. If you don't want particular column to be filtered you can set the `hideFilter` option on the column. By default the table tries to filter by checking if the row's value starts with the filter text. The default method for filtering the table can be set with the table's `defaultFilterMethod` option. If you want to override a particular column's filtering method, you can set the `filterMethod` option on a column. To completely override the filter that is shown, you can set the `filterRender` column option. Using this option you can specify the JSX that is shown. The option is passed an `onFilterChange` method which must be called with the the value that you wan't to pass to the `filterMethod` option whenever the filter has changed. See Custom Filtering demo for examples. ## Component Overrides Though we confidently stand by the markup and architecture behind it, `react-table` does offer the ability to change the core componentry it uses to render everything. You can extend or override these internal components by passing a react component to it's corresponding prop on either the global props or on a one-off basis like so: ```javascript // Change the global default import { ReactTableDefaults } from 'react-table' Object.assign(ReactTableDefaults, { TableComponent: component, TheadComponent: component, TbodyComponent: component, TrGroupComponent: component, TrComponent: component, ThComponent: component TdComponent: component, TfootComponent: component, ExpanderComponent: component, PivotValueComponent: component, PaginationComponent: component, PreviousComponent: undefined, NextComponent: undefined, LoadingComponent: component, NoDataComponent: component, ResizerComponent: component }) // Or change per instance ``` If you choose to change the core components React-Table uses to render, you must make sure your replacement components consume and utilize all of the supplied and inherited props that are needed for that component to function properly. We would suggest investigating the source for the component you wish to replace. ## Contributing To suggest a feature, create an issue if it does not already exist.
