Readme
This is a custom fork used to fix some issues with sorting
Table uses the _original keys instead of copies. This simple fix works by hardcoding the original key to be '_original'
this.props.defaultSortMethod(
a._original[sort.id],
b._original[sort.id],
sort.desc
);

}]
<ReactTable
data={data}
columns={columns}
/>
}
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 is also supported!
<ReactTable
data={[...]}
/>
Pro Tip: Using the resolveData
prop - Any time the data
prop value changes (using a ===
comparison), the table will update, but sometimes you need to materialize, alter, or shape this data before it enters the table. To do this, you can use the resolveData
prop! It recieves the data
prop as the only parameter and returns the resolved data.
<ReactTable
data={myData} // The data prop should be immutable and only change when you want to update the table
resolveData={data => data.map(row => row)} // But you can break immutability here because `resolveData` runs when the `data` prop changes!
/>

These are all of the available props (and their default values) for the main <ReactTable />
component.

You can easily override the core defaults like so:
import { ReactTableDefaults } from "react-table";
Object.assign(ReactTableDefaults, {
defaultPageSize: 10,
minRows: 3
// etc...
});
Or just define them as props
<ReactTable
defaultPageSize={10}
minRows={3}
// etc...
/>
Columns
<ReactTable />
requires a columns
prop, which is an array of objects containing the following properties
[{
// Renderers - For more information, see "Renderers" section below
Cell: JSX | String | Function // Used to render a standard cell, defaults to the accessed value
Header: JSX | String | Function // Used to render the header of a column or column group

Filter: JSX | cellInfo => ( // Used to render the filter UI of a filter-enabled column
<select onChange={event => onFiltersChange(event.target.value)} value={filter ? filter.value : ''}></select>
// The value passed to onFiltersChange will be the value passed to filter.value of the filterMethod
)
Aggregated: JSX | String | Function // Used to render aggregated cells. Defaults to a comma separated list of values.
Pivot: JSX | String | Function | cellInfo => ( // Used to render a pivoted cell

// 'row' || 'rows' == the row (or rows, if filterAll is set to true) of data supplied to the table
// 'column' == the column that the filter is on
filterAll: false

Renderers
React Table supports very flexible renderers for just about everything:
Cell
- Renders a standard cellHeader
- Renders a column header or column group headerFooter
- Renders a column footerFilter
- Renders a column's filter UIAggregated
- Renders an aggregated cellPivot
- Renders a pivoted cell (by default, will utilizeExpander
andPivotValue
renderers)PivotValue
- Renders the value inside aPivot
rendererExpander
- Renders the Expander used in both the defaultPivot
renderer and any expander-designated column
Any of these renderers can be one of the following:
- A React Class
- JSX or any rendered react component
- Stateless functional component
- Function that returns any primitive
All of these formats receive the following props:
{
// Row-level props
row: Object, // the materialized row of data
original: , // the original row of data
index: '', // the index of the row in the original arra
viewIndex: '', // the index of the row relative to the current view
level: '', // the nesting level of this row
nestingPath: '', // the nesting path of this row
aggregated: '', // true if this row's values were aggregated
groupedByPivot: '', // true if this row was produced by a pivot
subRows: '', // any sub rows defined by the `subRowKey` prop
// Cells-level props
isExpanded: '', // true if this row is expanded
value: '', // the materialized value of this cell
resized: '', // the resize information for this cell's column
show: '', // true if the column is visible
width: '', // the resolved width of this cell
maxWidth: '', // the resolved maxWidth of this cell
tdProps: '', // the resolved tdProps from `getTdProps` for this cell
columnProps: '', // the resolved column props from 'getProps' for this cell's column
classes: '', // the resolved array of classes for this cell
styles: '' // the resolved styles for this cell
}
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": $}}} |
NOTE
If your data has a field/key with a dot (.
) you will need to supply a custom accessor.
Column Header Groups
To group columns with another header column, just nest your columns in a header column. Header columns utilize the same header properties as regular columns.
const columns = [{
Header: 'Favorites',
headerClassName: 'my-favorites-column-header-group'
columns: [{
Header: 'Color',
accessor: 'favorites.color'
}, {
Header: 'Food',
accessor: 'favorites.food'
}, {
Header: 'Actor',
accessor: 'favorites.actor'
}]
}]
Custom Cell, Header and Footer Rendering
You can use any react component or JSX to display content in column headers, cells and footers. Any component you use will be passed the following props (if available):
row
- Original row from your dataoriginal
- The post-accessed values from the original rowindex
- The index of the rowviewIndex
- the index of the row relative to the current pagelevel
- The nesting depth (zero-indexed)nestingPath
- The nesting path of the rowaggregated
- A boolean stating if the row is an aggregation rowsubRows
- An array of any expandable sub-rows contained in this row
// This column uses a stateless component to produce a different colored bar depending on the value
// You can also use stateful components or any other function that returns JSX
const columns = [
{
Header: () => (
<span>
<i className="fa-tasks" /> Progress
</span>
),
accessor: "progress",
Cell: row => (
<div
style={{
width: "100%",
height: "100%",
backgroundColor: "#dadada",
borderRadius: "2px"
}}
>
<div
style={{
width: `${row.value}%`,
height: "100%",
backgroundColor:
row.value > 66
? "#85cc00"
: row.value > 33
? "#ffbf00"
: "#ff2e00",
borderRadius: "2px",
transition: "all .2s ease-out"
}}
/>
</div>
)
}
];
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:
<ReactTable
getProps={fn}
getTableProps={fn}
getTheadGroupProps={fn}
getTheadGroupTrProps={fn}
getTheadGroupThProps={fn}
getTheadProps={fn}
getTheadTrProps={fn}
getTheadThProps={fn}
getTbodyProps={fn}
getTrGroupProps={fn}
getTrProps={fn}
getThProps={fn}
getTdProps={fn}
getPaginationProps={fn}
getLoadingProps={fn}
getNoDataProps={fn}
getResizerProps={fn}
/>
If used, a callback prop must return an valid object, even if it's an empty one.
These callbacks are executed with each render of the element with four parameters:
- Table State
- RowInfo (undefined if not applicable)
- Column (undefined if not applicable)
- React Table Instance
This makes it extremely easy to add, say... a row click callback!
// When any Td element is clicked, we'll log out some information
<ReactTable
getTdProps={(state, rowInfo, column, instance) => {
return {
onClick: (e, handleOriginal) => {
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);
// IMPORTANT! React-Table uses onClick internally to trigger
// events like expanding SubComponents and pivots.
// By default a custom 'onClick' handler will override this functionality.
// If you want to fire the original onClick handler, call the
// 'handleOriginal' function.
if (handleOriginal) {
handleOriginal();
}
}
};
}}
/>
You can use these callbacks for dynamic styling as well!
// Any Tr element will be green if its (row.age > 20)
<ReactTable
getTrProps={(state, rowInfo, column) => {
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:
const columns = [{
getHeaderProps: () => (...),
getProps: () => (...)
}]
In a similar fashion these can be used to dynamically style just about anything!
// 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.
<ReactTable
...
pivotBy={['lastName', 'age']}
/>
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:
// 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)),
Aggregated: row => {
// You can even render the cell differently if it's an aggregated cell
return <span>row.value (avg)</span>;
}
},
{
Header: "Visits",
accessor: "visits",
aggregate: (values, rows) => _.sum(values)
}
];
Pivoted columns can be sorted just like regular columns including holding down the <shift>
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:
<ReactTable
data={data}
columns={columns}
defaultPageSize={10}
SubComponent={row => {
return (
<div>
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!
</div>
);
}}
/>
Server-side Data
If you want to handle pagination, sorting, and filtering on the server, react-table
makes it easy on you.
- Feed React Table
data
from somewhere dynamic. eg.state
, a redux store, etc... - Add
manual
as a prop. This informs React Table that you'll be handling sorting and pagination server-side - Subscribe to the
onFetchData
prop. This function is called atcompomentDidMount
and any time sorting, pagination or filterting is changed in the table - In the
onFetchData
callback, request your data using the provided information in the params of the function (current state and instance) - Update your data with the rows to be displayed
- Optionally set how many pages there are total
<ReactTable
...
data={this.state.data} // should default to []
pages={this.state.pages} // should default to -1 (which means we don't know how many pages we have)
loading={this.state.loading}
manual // informs React Table that you'll be handling sorting and pagination server-side
onFetchData={(state, instance) => {
// show the loading overlay
this.setState({loading: true})
// fetch your data
Axios.post('mysite.com/data', {
page: state.page,
pageSize: state.pageSize,
sorted: state.sorted,
filtered: state.filtered
})
.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:
<ReactTable
// Props
page={0} // the index of the page you wish to display
pageSize={20} // the number of rows per page to be displayed
sorted={[{ // the sorting model for the table
id: 'lastName',
desc: true
}, {
id: 'firstName',
desc: true
}]}
expanded={{ // The nested row indexes on the current page that should appear expanded
1: true,
4: true,
5: {
2: true,
3: true
}
}}
filtered={[{ // the current filters model
id: 'lastName',
value: 'linsley'
}]}
resized={[{ // the current resized column model
"id": "lastName",
"value": 446.25
}]}
// Callbacks
onPageChange={(pageIndex) => {...}} // 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
onSortedChange={(newSorted, 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
onExpandedChange={(newExpanded, index, event) => {...}} // Called when an expander is clicked. Use this to manage `expanded`
onFilteredChange={(column, value) => {...}} // Called when a user enters a value into a filter input field or the value passed to the onFiltersChange handler by the Filter option.
onResizedChange={(newResized, event) => {...}} // 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 <ReactTable />
.
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:
<ReactTable data={data} columns={columns}>
{(state, makeTable, instance) => {
return (
<div
style={{
background: "#ffcf00",
borderRadius: "5px",
overflow: "hidden",
padding: "5px"
}}
>
<pre>
<code>
state.allVisibleColumns ==={" "}
{JSON.stringify(state.allVisibleColumns, null, 4)}
</code>
</pre>
{makeTable()}
</div>
);
}}
</ReactTable>
The possibilities are endless!
Sorting
Sorting comes built in with React-Table.
- Click a column header to sort by its accessor.
- Click it again to reverse the sort.
- Set
defaultSortDesc
property totrue
to make the first sort direction default to descending. - Override a specific column's default sort direction by using the same
defaultSortDesc
property on a column, set totrue
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!
You can set the multiSort
prop to false
to disable this feature (which may be useful for server-side sorting when you are not
going to sort multiple columns).
Custom Sorting Algorithm
To override the default sorting algorithm for the whole table use the defaultSortMethod
prop.
To override the sorting algorithm for a single column, use the sortMethod
column property.
Supply a function that implements the native javascript Array.sort
interface. This is React Table's default sorting algorithm:
a
the first value to compareb
the second value to comparedesc
true if sort is descending, false if ascending

Filtering
Filtering can be enabled by setting the filterable
option on the table.
If you don't want particular column to be filtered you can set the filterable={false}
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.
By default, filterMethod
is passed a single row of data at a time, and you are responsible for returning true
or false
, indicating whether it should be shown.
Alternatively, you can set filterAll
to true
, and filterMethod
will be passed the entire array of rows to be filtered, and you will then be responsible for returning the new filtered array. This is extremely handy when you need to utilize a utility like fuzzy matching that requires the entire array of items.
To completely override the filter that is shown, you can set the Filter
column option. Using this option you can specify the JSX that is shown. The option is passed an onChange
method which must be called with the the value that you want 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:
// 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,
AggregatedComponent: component,
PivotValueComponent: component,
PivotComponent: component,
FilterComponent: component,
PaginationComponent: component,
PreviousComponent: undefined,
NextComponent: undefined,
LoadingComponent: component,
NoDataComponent: component,
ResizerComponent: component
})
// Or change per instance
<ReactTable
TableComponent={Component},
TheadComponent={Component},
// etc...
/>
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.
