react-smart-data-table-search

A smart data table component for React.js meant to be configuration free - extended version of react-smart-data-table

About

This is meant to be a zero configuration data table component for React.js in the spirit of plug and play.

Just feed it an array of equal JSON objects and it will create a template free table that can be customized easily with any framework (or custom CSS).

If you want more control over the data rendering process or don't need the smarts, check out react-very-simple-data-table.

Features

It currently supports:

1. Humanized column names based on object keys
2. Sortable columns
3. Rows filtering / searchable
4. Search term highlight in the results
5. Column visibility toggles
6. Automatic pagination
7. Server-side/remote data
8. Control over row clicks
9. Smart data rendering
   • URLs and E-Mail addresses rendered as the href in an anchor tag <a />
   • boolean value parsing to yes/no word
   • Image URLs rendered as the src for an image tag <img />
10. Custom override if the default behavior is unwanted for some columns
11. Custom components
    • Paginator
12. Control the order of the columns
    • Using the above, it's also possible to select which columns to display

$ npm install react-smart-data-table

headers

/*
  Use the following structure to overwrite the default behavior for columns
  Undefined column keys will present the default behavior
    text:       Humanized text based on the column key name
    invisible:  Columns are visible by default
    sortable:   Columns are sortable by default
    filterable: Columns are filterable by default
    isImg:      Will force the render as an image, e.g. for dynamic URLs
    transform:  Allows the custom rendering of the cells content
                Should be a function and these are the arguments passed:
                  (value, index, row)
                The index is the position of the row as being rendered and
                not the index of the row in the original data
  Nested structures can be defined by a string-dot representation
    'key1.key2.key3.[...].key99'
*/
const headers = {
  columnKey: {
    text: "Column 1",
    invisible: false,
    sortable: true,
    filterable: true
  },
  "nested.columnKey": {
    text: "Nested Column",
    invisible: false,
    sortable: true,
    filterable: true
  },
  // If a dummy column is inserted into the data, it can be used to customize
  // the table by allowing actions per row to be implemented, for example
  tableActions: {
    text: "Actions",
    invisible: false,
    sortable: false,
    filterable: false,
    transform: (value, index, row) => {
      // The following results should be identical
      console.log(value, row.tableActions);
      // Example of table actions: Delete row from data by row index
      return <button onClick={() => deleteRow(row)}>Delete Row</button>;
    }
  }
};

onRowClick()

const onRowClick = (event, { rowData, rowIndex, tableData }) => {
  // The following results should be identical
  console.log(rowData, tableData[rowIndex]);
};

parseBool

// Default
const parseBool = {
  yesWord: "Yes",
  noWord: "No"
};

parseImg

// You can pass a regular style object that will be passed down to <img />
// Or a Class Name
const parseImg = {
  style: {
    border: "1px solid #ddd",
    borderRadius: "4px",
    padding: "5px",
    width: "150px"
  },
  className: "my-custom-image-style"
};

emptyTable

// Any renderable object can be passed
const emptyTable = <div>There is no data available at the time.</div>;

paginator

The CustomComponent passed down as a prop will be rendered with the following props which can be used to perform all the necessary calculations and makes it fully compatible with Semantic UI's Pagination component.

const CustomComponent = ({
  activePage, totalPages, onPageChange,
}) => (/* ... */)

<SmartDataTable
  ...
  paginator={CustomComponent}
/>

// To change the page, call the onPageChange function with the next activePage

<MyCustomElement
  ...
  onClick={e => this.onPageChange(e, { activePage: nextActivePage })}
/>

orderedHeaders / hideUnordered

If you want to control the order of the columns, simply pass an array containing the keys in the desired order. All the omitted headers will be appended afterwards unpredictably. Additionally, you can pass the hideUnordered in order to render only the headers in orderedHeaders and hide the remaining.

const hideUnordered = true

const orderedHeaders = [
  'key1',
  'key2.subkey3',
  ...
]

Examples

Async data loading (fetch)

By passing a string to the data prop, the component will interpret it as an URL and try to load the data from that location using fetch. If a successful request is returned, the data will be extracted from the data key in the response object. If it's in a different key, you can specify it with the dataKey prop.

response

{
  "status": "success",
  "message": "",
  "data": [{ "id": 0, "other": "..." }, { "id": 1, "other": "..." }, "..."]
}

component

<SmartDataTable data="/api/v1/data" dataKey="data" name="test-table" />

Simple sortable table (with Semantic UI)

import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import faker from "faker";
import SmartDataTable from "react-smart-data-table";

var testData = [];
var numResults = 100;

for (var i = 0; i < numResults; i++) {
  testData.push({
    _id: i,
    fullName: faker.name.findName(),
    "email.address": faker.internet.email(),
    phone_number: faker.phone.phoneNumber(),
    address: {
      city: faker.address.city(),
      state: faker.address.state(),
      country: faker.address.country()
    }
  });
}

ReactDOM.render(
  <SmartDataTable
    data={testData}
    name="test-table"
    className="ui compact selectable table"
    sortable
  />,
  document.getElementById("app")
);

Demos

You can try react-smart-data-table with different UI libraries in the demo pages below. You can experiment with different features as well.

• Semantic UI: All Features
• Bootstrap: Sortable

Take a look at the full featured example's source code.

Also, see it in full integration with a simple user/group management dashboard application. Feel free to play around with it, it's built with hot reloading.
