@zambezi/react-simple-table

A wrapper to use @zambezi/simple-table as a React component.

Installation

npm install --save @zambezi/react-simple-table

Basic Usage

Define your data as an Array of rows:

const rows = [
        {
          name: 'Álvaro'
        , email: 'alvaro@example.com'
        , address: { city: 'London' }
        , price: 234234.23433223
        }
      , {
          name: 'Ignacio'
        , email: 'ignacio@example.com'
        , address: { city: 'London' }
        , price: 111111.234234234
        }
      ]

Define your columns as an Array of column descriptors:

const columns = [
        { key: 'name', label: 'Name' }
      , { key: 'email', label: 'Email' }
      , { format: addressFormatter, label: 'City' }
      , { key: 'price', label: 'Price', format: priceFormatter }
      ]

• label: The label for this column in the table header
• key: The key in the row to pick the data from. Optional, see format
• format: a function that will take either a cell or a row as argument. If a key is provided format will receive a cell, otherwise it will receive the entire row.

Define any required formatter functions:

function addressFormatter(row) {
  return row.address.city
}

function priceFormatter(price) {
  return price.toFixed ? price.toFixed(3) : ''
}

Render the table using React and ReactDOM

import React from 'react'
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom'
import SimpleTable from '@zambezi/react-simple-table'

ReactDOM.render(
  <SimpleTable columns={ columns } rows={ rows } />
, document.querySelector('#react-simple-table')
)

Handling selections

Provide a mechanism to render SimpleTable on demand, passing an array of selected rows:

function draw(selected=[]) {
  ...
}

Define a selection callback:

function addToSelection(row) {
  // `selected` is an Array of rows
  draw([ row ])
}

Pass the selection callback and the selected rows as a properties to SimpleTable:

function draw(selected=[]) {
  ReactDOM.render(
    <SimpleTable
      columns={ columns }
      rows={ rows }
      selected={ selected }
      onSelect={ addToSelection }
      />
  , document.querySelector('#react-simple-table')
  )
}
