Tables - Documentation | www.HtmlElements.com

Overview

Smart.Table is created to replace and extend the HTML Table tag with custom styles, hover effects, sorting and data related capabilities.

Getting Started

JavaScript (ES6) & TypeScript
Angular
React
Vue

Getting Started with Table Web Component

Smart UI for Web Components is distributed as smart-webcomponents NPM package. You can also get the full download from our website with all demos from the Download page.

Setup the Table

Smart UI for Web Components is distributed as smart-webcomponents NPM package

Download and install the package.
```
npm install smart-webcomponents
```

Once installed, import the Table module in your application.

<script type="module" src="node_modules/smart-webcomponents/source/modules/smart.table.js"></script>

Adding CSS reference

The smart.default.css CSS file should be referenced using following code.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="node_modules/smart-webcomponents/source/styles/smart.default.css" />

Add the Table tag to your Web Page
```
<smart-table id="table"></smart-table>
```

Create the Table Component

	<script type="module">
		Smart('#table', class {
			get properties() {
				return sortMode: "many"
			}
		});
	</script>

Another option is to create the Table is by using the traditional Javascript way:

	const table = document.createElement('smart-table');

	table.disabled = true;
	document.body.appendChild(table);

Smart framework provides a way to dynamically create a web component on demand from a DIV tag which is used as a host. The following imports the web component's module and creates it on demand, when the document is ready. The #table is the ID of a DIV tag.

	import "../../source/modules/smart.table.js";

	document.readyState === 'complete' ? init() : window.onload = init;

	function init() { 
		const table = new Smart.Table('#table', sortMode: "many");
	}

Open the page in your web server.

Bordered Table

Add ".table-bordered" for borders on all sides of the table and cells.

Demo

See the Pen Table Bordered Demo by Boyko Markov (@boyko-markov) on CodePen.

Dark

Add ".table-dark" to make the table with Dark Background and White Color.

Demo

See the Pen Table Dark Bordered Demo by Boyko Markov (@boyko-markov) on CodePen.

Table Sorting

Add sort-mode="one" or sort-mode="many" to make the table Sortable by one or many columns. To sort the table through the API, use "sortBy" method and pass two arguments - Column's Name and 'asc', 'desc' or null to sort ascending, descending or remove the column's sort.

Demo

See the Pen Table Sort Demo by Boyko Markov (@boyko-markov) on CodePen.

Striped Rows

Use .table-striped to add zebra-striping.

Responsive

Responsive tables make them easily scrollable. To make the Smart.Table responsive across all viewports, use the ".table-responsive" CSS class. Or, pick a maximum breakpoint with which to have a responsive table up to by using .table-responsive{-sm|-md|-lg|-xl}.

Breakpoint specific

Use .table-responsive{-sm|-md|-lg|-xl} as needed to create the responsive element up to a particular breakpoint. From that breakpoint and up, the web component will behave normally and not scroll horizontally.

Create, Append, Remove, Get/Set Property, Invoke Method, Bind to Event

Create a new element:

	const table = document.createElement('smart-table');

Append it to the DOM:

	document.body.appendChild(table);

Remove it from the DOM:

	table.parentNode.removeChild(table);

Set a property:

	table.propertyName = propertyValue;

Get a property value:

	const propertyValue = table.propertyName;

Invoke a method:

	table.methodName(argument1, argument2);

Add Event Listener:

	const eventHandler = (event) => {
	   // your code here.
	};

	table.addEventListener(eventName, eventHandler);

Remove Event Listener:

	table.removeEventListener(eventName, eventHandler, true);

Using with Typescript

Smart Web Components package includes TypeScript definitions which enables strongly-typed access to the Smart UI Components and their configuration.

Inside the download package, the typescript directory contains .d.ts file for each web component and a smart.elements.d.ts typescript definitions file for all web components. Copy the typescript definitions file to your project and in your TypeScript file add a reference to smart.elements.d.ts

Getting Started with Angular Table Component

Setup Angular Environment

Angular provides the easiest way to set angular CLI projects using Angular CLI tool.

Install the CLI application globally to your machine.

npm install -g @angular/cli

Create a new Application

ng new smart-angular-table

Navigate to the created project folder

cd smart-angular-table

Setup the Table

Smart UI for Angular is distributed as smart-webcomponents-angular NPM package

Download and install the package.
```
npm install smart-webcomponents-angular
```
Adding CSS reference

The following CSS file is available in ../node_modules/smart-webcomponents-angular/ package folder. This can be referenced in [src/styles.css] using following code.
```
@import 'smart-webcomponents-angular/source/styles/smart.default.css';
```
Another way to achieve the same is to edit the angular.json file and in the styles add the style.
```
"styles": [
		"node_modules/smart-webcomponents-angular/source/styles/smart.default.css"
	]
```
If you want to use Bootstrap, Fluent or other themes available in the package, you need to add them after 'smart.default.css'.

Example with Angular Standalone Components

Getting Started with React Table Component

Setup React Environment

The easiest way to start with React is to use NextJS Next.js is a full-stack React framework. It’s versatile and lets you create React apps of any size—from a mostly static blog to a complex dynamic application.

npx create-next-app my-app
cd my-app
npm run dev

yarn create next-app my-app
cd my-app
yarn run dev

Preparation

Setup the Table

Smart UI for React is distributed as smart-webcomponents-react package

Download and install the package.

In your React Next.js project, run one of the following commands to install Smart UI Table for React
With NPM:
```
npm install smart-webcomponents-react
```
With Yarn:
```
yarn add smart-webcomponents-react
```

Once installed, import the React Table Component and CSS files in your application and render it. app.js

import 'smart-webcomponents-react/source/styles/smart.default.css';
import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom/client';
import { Table } from 'smart-webcomponents-react/table';

class App extends React.Component {

	init() {
	
	}


	componentDidMount() {
		this.init();
	}

	render() {
		return (

Getting Started with Vue Table Component

Setup Vue with Vite

In this section we will introduce how to scaffold a Vue Single Page Application on your local machine. The created project will be using a build setup based on Vite and allow us to use Vue Single-File Components (SFCs). Run the following command in your command line

npm create vue@latest

This command will install and execute create-vue, the official Vue project scaffolding tool. You will be presented with prompts for several optional features such as TypeScript and testing support:

✔ Project name: … 
✔ Add TypeScript? … No / Yes
✔ Add JSX Support? … No / Yes
✔ Add Vue Router for Single Page Application development? … No / Yes
✔ Add Pinia for state management? … No / Yes
✔ Add Vitest for Unit testing? … No / Yes
✔ Add an End-to-End Testing Solution? … No / Cypress / Playwright
✔ Add ESLint for code quality? … No / Yes
✔ Add Prettier for code formatting? … No / Yes

Scaffolding project in ./...
Done.

If you are unsure about an option, simply choose No by hitting enter for now. Once the project is created, follow the instructions to install dependencies and start the dev server:

cd 
npm install
npm install smart-webcomponents
npm run dev

Make Vue ignore custom elements defined outside of Vue (e.g., using the Web Components APIs). Otherwise, it will throw a warning about an Unknown custom element, assuming that you forgot to register a global component or misspelled a component name.

Open vite.config.js in your favorite text editor and change its contents to the following:

vite.config.js

import { fileURLToPath, URL } from 'node:url'

import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue'

// https://vitejs.dev/config/
export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    vue({
      template: {
        compilerOptions: {
          isCustomElement: tag => tag.startsWith('smart-')
        }
      }
    })
  ],
  resolve: {
    alias: {
      '@': fileURLToPath(new URL('./src', import.meta.url))
    }
  }
})

Open src/App.vue in your favorite text editor and change its contents to the following:

App.vue

<template>
  <div class="vue-root">
    <div class="demo-description">
      Our Table web component can be used to wrap or replace standard Tables

      add, remove and update rows.

<script>
import { onMounted } from "vue";
import "smart-webcomponents/source/styles/smart.default.css";
import "smart-webcomponents/source/modules/smart.table.js";

export default {
  name: "app",
  setup() {
    onMounted(() => {});
  }
};
</script>

<style>
</style>

We can now use the smart-table with Vue 3. Data binding and event handlers will just work right out of the box.

Running the Vue application

Start the app with

npm run dev

and open http://localhost:5173/ in your favorite web browser to see the output below:
When you are ready to ship your app to production, run the following:

npm run build

This will create a production-ready build of your app in the project's ./dist directory.
