React Data Table Component Demo

React Data Table Component

Creating yet another React table library came out of necessity while developing a web application for a growing startup. I discovered that while there are some great table libraries already available, most required heavy customization or lacked basic features such as built in sorting and pagination, and in some cases required a restrictive license.

If you want to achieve balance with the force and want a simple but flexible table library give React Data Table Component a chance. If you require an Excel clone and need to pivot large data sets then this is not the React table library you are looking for ๐Ÿ‘‹

Key Features

  • Declarative Configuration
  • Sortable (client)
  • Selectable Rows
  • Expandable Rows
  • Themeable via js config
  • Data Aware (i.e. easily callback to a parent component get the DataTable state, e.g. selectedRows
  • Responsive (via x-scroll/flex)
  • Pagination

Requirements

React Data Table Component requires the following be installed in your project:

  • React 16.6+
  • styled-components 3.2.3+ || 4.0.0+

Installation

React Data Table requires the wonderful styled-components library. If you've already installed styled-components there is no need to install it again.

npm install react-data-table-component styled-components

or

yarn add react-data-table-component styled-components

Logging Issues

Please use the github issue templates feature for logging issues or feature proposals. Including a codesanbox and providing clear details on the feature/issue will elicit a much quicker resonse ๐Ÿ˜‰

API/Usage

Columns

Nothing new here - we are using an array of object literals and properties to describle the columns:

Property Type Required Example
name string no the display name of our Column e.g. 'Name'
selector string yes the propery in the data set e.g. property1.nested1.nested2.
sortable bool no if the column is sortable
format func no format the selector e.g. row => moment(row.timestamp).format('lll')
cell func no for ultimate control use cell to render your own custom component! e.g row => <h2>{row.title}</h2> Negates format
grow number no flex-grow of the column. the is useful if you want a column to take up more width than its relatives (without having to set widths explicitly). this will be affected by other columns where you have explicitly set widths
width string no give the column a fixed width
minWidth string no give the column a minWidth
maxWidth string no give the column a maxWidth
right bool no right aligns the content in the cell. useful for numbers
center bool no center aligns the content in the cell
compact bool no reduces the padding in the cell by 50%
button bool no applies additional styling when using a button
wrap bool no whether the cell content should be allowed to wrap.
allowOverflow bool no allows content in the cell to overflow. useful for menus/layovers that do not rely on "smart" positioning
ignoreRowClick bool no prevents the onRowClicked event from being passed on a specific TableCell column. This is really useful for a menu or button where you do not want the onRowClicked triggered

DataTable Properties

Basic

Property Type Required Default Description
title string or component no The Title displayed in the Table Header
columns array yes [] The column configuration
data array no [] it is highly recommended that your data has a unique identifier (keyField). The default keyField is id. If you need to override this value then see keyField DataTable Properties.
keyField string no 'id' your data should have a unique identifier. By default, React Data Table looks for an id property for each item in your data. You must match keyField to your identifier key, especially if you want to manage row state at a later time or use the expander feature. If a unique id is not present, React Data Table will use the row index (not recommended) as the key value
striped bool no false stripe color the odd rows
highlightOnHover bool no false if rows are to be highlighted on hover
pointerOnHover bool no false if rows show a point icon on hover
noDataComponent string or component no A custom component to display when there are no records to display
className string no override the className on the Table wrapper
style object no override the style on the Table wrapper
responsive bool no true makes the table horizontally scrollable on smaller screen widths
customTheme object no Override the default theme, by overriding specifc props. Your changes will be merged. See Theming for more information
disabled bool no false disables the Table section
onTableUpdate func no callback to access the entire Data Table state ({ allSelected, selectedCount, selectedRows, sortColumn, sortDirection, rows })
onRowClicked func no callback to access the row data,index on row click
overflowY bool no false if a table is responsive, items such as layovers/menus/dropdowns will be clipped on the last row(s) due to to overflow-x-y behavior - setting this value ensures there is invisible space below the table to prevent "clipping". However, if possible, the correct approach is to use menus/layovers/dropdowns that support smart positioning. If used, the table parent element must have a fixed height or height: 100%.
overflowYOffset string no 250px used with overflowY to "fine tune" the offset

Progress Indicator

Property Type Required Default Description
progressPending bool no disables the table and displays a plain text Loading Indicator
progressComponent component no allows you to use your own custom progress component
progressCentered bool no absolutely position and center the progress over the table

Row Selection

Property Type Required Default Description
selectableRows bool no false Whether to show selectable checkboxes
clearSelectedRows bool no false toggling this property clears the selectedRows. If you use redux or react state you need to make sure that you pass a toggled value or the component will not update. See Clearing Selected Rows
selectableRowsComponent func no Override the default checkbox component - must be passed as a function (e.g. Checkbox not <Checkbox />)
selectableRowsComponentProps object no Additional props you want to pass to selectableRowsComponent. See Advanced Selectable Component Options to learn how you can override indeterminate state

Row Expander

Property Type Required Default Description
expandableRows bool no false Whether to make a row expandable, if true it requires an expandableRowsComponent. It is highly recommended your data set have a unique identifier defined as the keyField for row expansion to work properly.
expandableIcon object no default expander icons you may pass in your own custom icons using the expandableIcon: { collapsed: <svg>...</svg>, expanded: <svg>...</svg>
expandableDisabledField string no React Data Table looks for this property for each item in your data and checks if that item can be expanded or not. You must set a bool value in the expandableDisabledField of your data if you want to use this feature.
expandableRowsComponent string or component no A custom component to display in the expanded row. It will have the data prop composed so that you may access the row data

Sorting

Property Type Required Default Description
defaultSortField string no Setting this ensures the table data is presorted before it renders and the field(selector) is focused
defaultSortAsc bool no true set this to false if you want the table data to be sorted in DESC order
sortIcon component no Override the default sort icon - the icon must be a font or svg icon and it should be a "downward" icon since animation will be handled by React Data Table
onSort func no callback to access the sort state when a column is clicked. returns (column, sortDirection, event)
sortFunction func no pass in your own custom sort function e.g. `(rows, field, direction) => {...yourSortLogicHere}. you must return an array

Pagination

Property Type Required Default Description
pagination bool no false enable pagination with defaults. by default the total record set will be sliced depending on the page, rows per page. if you wish to use server side pagination then use the paginationServer property
paginationServer bool no false changes the default pagination to work with server side pagination
paginationDefaultPage number no 1 the default page to use when the table initially loads
paginationTotalRows number no 0 allows you to provide the total row count for your table as represented by your API when performing server side pagination. if this property is not provided then react-data-table will use data.length
paginationPerPage number no 10 the default rows per page to use when the table initially loads
paginationRowsPerPageOptions number no [10, 15, 20, 25, 30] row page dropdown selection options
onChangePage func no null callback when paged that returns onChangePage(page, totalRows)
onChangeRowsPerPage func no null callback when rows per page is changed returns onChangeRowsPerPage(currentRowsPerPage, currentPage)
paginationComponent func no Pagination a component that overrides the default paginator component
paginationComponentOptions object no See Description overridable options for the built in pagination component. If you are developing a custom pagination component you can use paginationComponentOptions to pass in your own custom props. Defaults to: { rowsPerPageText: 'Rows per page:', rangeSeparatorText: 'of' }
paginationIconFirstPage no JSX a component that overrides the first page icon for the pagination
paginationIconLastPage no JSX a component that overrides the last page icon for the pagination
paginationIconNext no JSX a component that overrides the next page icon for the pagination
paginationIconPrevious no JSX a component that overrides the previous page icon for the pagination

Header

Property Type Required Default Description
actions component or array of components no add actions to the TableHeader
contextTitle string no override the context menu title
contextActions component or array of components no add context actions to the TableHeader context
noHeader bool no false removes the table header. title, contextTitle and contextActions will be ignored
fixedHeader bool no false makes the table header fixed allowing you to scroll the table body
fixedHeaderScrollHeight string no 100vh in order for fixedHeader to work this property allows you to set a static height to the TabelBody. height must be a fixed value
subHeader component or array of components no false show a subheader between the table and table header
subHeaderAlign string no right align the subheader content (left, right, center)
subHeaderWrap bool no true whether the subheader content should wrap
subHeaderComponent component or array of components no [] a component you want to render

Advanced Selectable Component Options

Sometimes 3rd party checkbox components have their own way of handling indeterminate state. We don't want React Data Table hardcoded to a specific ui lib or custom component, so instead a "hook" is provided to allow you to pass a function that will be resolved by React Data Table's internal Checkbox for use with indeterminate functionality.

Example Usage:

const { Checkbox } from 'react-md';

...

/* 
  In this example, the react-md ui lib determines its own indeterminate state via the `uncheckedIcon` property. 
  Let's override it. React Data Table is made aware if a checkbox is indetermite or not becuase internally we can resolve this   as `yourfunction(checkboxawareindeterminatestate)`
*/

const handleIndeterminate = isIndeterminate => (isIndeterminate ? <FontIcon>indeterminate_check_box</FontIcon> : <FontIcon>check_box_outline_blank</FontIcon>);

const MyComponent = () => (
  <DataTable
    title="Arnold Movies"
    columns={columns}
    data={data}
    selectableRows
    selectableRowsComponent={Checkbox} // Pass the function only
    selectableRowsComponentProps={{ uncheckedIcon: handleIndeterminate  }}
  />
);

Note This is currently only supported for indeterminate state, but may be expanded in the future if there is a demand

Basic Table

The following declarative structure creates a sortable table of Arnold movie titles:

import DataTable from 'react-data-table-component';

const data = [{ id: 1, title: 'Conan the Barbarian', year: '1982' } ...];
const columns = [
  {
    name: 'Title',
    selector: 'title',
    sortable: true,
  },
  {
    name: 'Year',
    selector: 'year',
    sortable: true,
    right: true,
  },
];

class MyComponent extends Component {
  render() { 
    return (
      <DataTable
        title="Arnold Movies"
        columns={columns}
        data={data}
      />
    )
  }
);

Selectable Rows

Let's make our rows selectable so we can access the selected results

...

const handleChange = (state) => {
  // You can use setState or dispatch with something like Redux so we can use the retrieved data
  console.log('Selected Rows: ', state.selectedRows);
};

class MyComponent extends Component {
  render() { 
      return (
        <DataTable
          title="Arnold Movies"
          columns={columns}
          data={data}
          selectableRows // add for checkbox selection
          onTableUpdate={handleChange}
        />
    )
  }
);

Clearing Selected Rows

We need some hook to trigger all the selectedRows to clear. If you were building your own table component, you would manage the selected rows state in some parent component, however, in our case, since we to keep row management within React Data Table, a clearSelectedRows prop is provided so you can pass a toggled state.

It will be up to you to make sure you do not pass the same state twice. For example, if you set clearSelectedRows={true} twice, on the second update/trigger, none the rows will not be cleared.

...
// set the initial state
state = { toggledClearRows: false }
...

const handleChange = (state) => {
  // You can use setState or dispatch with something like Redux so we can use the retrieved data
  console.log('Selected Rows: ', state.selectedRows);
};

// Toggle the state so React Table Table changes to `clearSelectedRows` are triggered
const handleClearRows = () => {
  this.setState({ toggledClearRows: !this.state.toggledClearRows})
}

class MyComponent extends Component {
  render() { 
    return (
      <DataTable
        title="Arnold Movies"
        columns={columns}
        data={data}
        selectableRows // add for checkbox selection
        onTableUpdate={handleChange}
        clearSelectedRows={this.state.toggledClearRows}
      />
    )
  }
);

Overriding with a 3rd Party Ui Component Library

Don't like those ugly html checkboxes? Let's override them with some react-md sexyiness. While we are at it we will also override the sortIcon:

...
import { Checkbox, FontIcon } from 'react-md';
...

class MyComponent extends Component {
  render() { 
    return (
      title="Arnold Movies"
      columns={columns}
      data={data}
      selectableRows
      selectableRowsComponent={Checkbox} // Pass the function only
      selectableRowsComponentProps={{ inkDisabled: true }} // optionally, pass react-md supported props down to our custom checkbox
      sortIcon={<FontIcon>arrow_downward</FontIcon>} // use a material icon for our sort icon. rdt will rotate the icon 180 degrees
      onTableUpdate={handleChange}
    />
    )
  }
);

Custom Cells

Let's give our Movie list a summary, but in the same cell as Name:

....

const data = [{ id: 1, title: 'Conan the Barbarian', summary: 'Orphaned boy Conan is enslaved after his village is destroyed...',  year: '1982' } ...];
const columns = [
  {
    name: 'Title',
    sortable: true,
    cell: row => <div><div style={{ fontWeight: bold }}>{row.title}</div>{row.summary}</div>,
  },
  {
    name: 'Year',
    selector: 'year',
    sortable: true,
    right: true,
  },
];

...

class MyComponent extends Component {
  render() { 
    return (
      <DataTable
        title="Arnold Movies"
        columns={columns}
        data={data}
        selectableRows
        selectableRowsComponent={Checkbox}
        selectableRowsComponentProps={{ inkDisabled: true }}
        sortIcon={<FontIcon>arrow_downward</FontIcon>}
        onTableUpdate={handleChange}
      />
    )
  }
);

Expandable Rows

Let's make our rows expandable so we can view more details:

...

const data = [{ id: 1, title: 'Conan the Barbarian', summary: 'Orphaned boy Conan is enslaved after his village is destroyed...',  year: '1982', image: 'http://conan.image.png' } ...];
const columns = [
  {
    name: 'Title',
    sortable: true,
    cell: row => <div><div style={{ fontWeight: 700 }}>{row.title}</div>{row.summary}</div>,
  },
  {
    name: 'Year',
    selector: 'year',
    sortable: true,
    right: true,
  },
];

...

// The row data is composed into your custom expandable component via the data prop
const ExpanableComponent = ({ data }) => <img src={data.image} />;

class MyComponent extends Component {
  render() { 
    return (
      <DataTable
        title="Arnold Movies"
        columns={columns}
        data={data}
        selectableRows
        selectableRowsComponent={Checkbox}
        selectableRowsComponentProps={{ inkDisabled: true }}
        sortIcon={<FontIcon>arrow_downward</FontIcon>}
        onTableUpdate={handleChange} 
        expandableRows
        expandableRowsComponent={<ExpanableComponent />}
      />
    )
  }
);

But in some cases we don't have more details to show:

...

const data = [{ id: 1, title: 'Conan the Barbarian', summary: 'Orphaned boy Conan is enslaved after his village is destroyed...',  year: '1982', expanderDisabled: true, image: 'http://conan.image.png' } ...];
const columns = [
  {
    name: 'Title',
    sortable: true,
    cell: row => <div><div style={{ fontWeight: 700 }}>{row.title}</div>{row.summary}</div>,
  },
  {
    name: 'Year',
    selector: 'year',
    sortable: true,
    right: true,
  },
];

...

// The row data is composed into your custom expandable component via the data prop
const ExpanableComponent = ({ data }) => <img src={data.image} />;

class MyComponent extends Component {
  render() { 
    return (
      <DataTable
        title="Arnold Movies"
        columns={columns}
        data={data}
        selectableRows
        selectableRowsComponent={Checkbox}
        selectableRowsComponentProps={{ inkDisabled: true }}
        sortIcon={<FontIcon>arrow_downward</FontIcon>}
        onTableUpdate={handleChange} 
        expandableRows
        expandableDisabledField="expanderDisabled"
        expandableRowsComponent={<ExpanableComponent />}
      />
    )
  }
);

Theming

You can override or replace the default theme using the customTheme prop. Internally, this just deep merges your theme with the default theme.

For Example:

// Override the row default height
const mySweetTheme = {
  rows: {
    height: '64px'
  }
}

class MyComponent extends Component {
  render() { 
    return (
      <DataTable
        title="Arnold Movies"
        columns={columns}
        customTheme={mySweetTheme}
      />
    )
  }
);

Refer to Default Theme for reference and avaiilable properties to override

CSS Overrides

If you would like to customize the layout components of React Data Table using styled-components (e.g. styled(DataTable)), or your favorite CSS/CSS preprocesor you may use the following classNames:

  • rdt_Table
  • rdt_TableRow
  • rdt_TableCol
  • rdt_TableCell
  • rdt_TableHeader
  • rdt_TableFooter
  • rdt_TableHead
  • rdt_TableHeadRow
  • rdt_TableBody
  • rdt_ExpanderRow
