Usage


                                                
                                                import { BpkDataTable, BpkDataTableColumn } from '@skyscanner/backpack-web/bpk-component-datatable';
                                                
                                                const rows = [
                                                  { name: 'Jose', description: 'Software Engineer' },
                                                  { name: 'Rolf', description: 'Manager' }
                                                ]
                                                
                                                const onRowClick = row => alert(JSON.stringify(row));
                                                
                                                export default () => (
                                                  <BpkDataTable rows={rows} height={200} onRowClick={onRowClick}>
                                                    <BpkDataTableColumn
                                                      label={'Name'}
                                                      dataKey={'name'}
                                                      width={100}
                                                    />
                                                    <BpkDataTableColumn
                                                      label={'Description'}
                                                      dataKey={'description'}
                                                      width={100}
                                                      flexGrow={1}
                                                    />
                                                  </BpkDataTable>
                                                );

By default BpkDataTable sorts the column using the value of dataKey. For use cases where the data might more complex and requires custom sorting you can pass a sort function along with sortBy and sortDirection.

Prop Details

sort, sortBy, sortDirection

For custom sorting, pass a sort function. Use sortBy to specify which column the custom sorting will be applied to. Use sortDirection to set the direction of sorting. By default, it will be ascending.

defaultColumnSortIndex

The data will be sorted by default based on this column.

headerRenderer

To handle more complex header data that needs any custom processing, pass a function or component to headerRenderer prop. This will only be formatting the header value - all styling will be handled by the component. It should implement the following signature:


                                                
                                                  function ({
                                                  dataKey: string, disableSort: boolean, label: string
                                                  }): element

cellDataGetter

To handle more complex cell data that needs any custom processing, pass a function or component to cellDataGetter prop. This will only be formatting the cell value - all styling will be handled by the component. It should implement the following signature:


                                                
                                                function ({
                                                  dataKey: string,
                                                  rowData: any
                                                }): any

cellRenderer

To handle more complex cell data that needs any custom processing, pass a function or component to cellRenderer prop. This will only be formatting the cell value - all styling will be handled by the component. To maintain backward compatibility, both cellRenderer and cellDataGetter will be supported, however, they are interchangeable as they both can only format the cell value. It should implement the following signature:


                                                
                                                function ({
                                                  cellData: any,
                                                  columnIndex: number,
                                                  dataKey: string,
                                                  rowData: any,
                                                  rowIndex: any,
                                                }): node
