JavaScript Data Grid

JavaScript Components

The LemonadeJS JavaScript Data Grid is a lightweight (5KBytes) and highly customizable JavaScript component that provides a free (MIT) solution for rendering data in rows and columns. It offers features like search, filter, pagination, and in-cell editing, making it ideal for building complex interfaces. With its lightweight design and virtual scrolling, the data grid ensures fast and efficient performance, even with large datasets. Its flexibility allows easy configuration to suit specific requirements, providing developers with a powerful tool for creating scalable and interactive user interfaces.

You can utilize this component with Vanilla JavaScript, LemonadeJS, or React.

Documentation

Installation

npm install @lemonadejs/data-grid

Settings

Attribute Description
data: object[] The data that will be displayed on the grid based on the columns attribute.
columns: columnItem[] Each columnItem object represents a column of data to be displayed. For more information about this object, please refer to the 'Column Item' section below.
pagination?: Number Enable the pagination and define the number of items per page.
search?: Boolean Enable the search. Default: false
editable?: Boolean The grid is editable. Default: false
resizable?: Boolean Enable the resizable functionality, allowing the columns to be resized. Default: false
zebra?: Boolean Enable the zebra style, highlighting every odd row with a darker color. Default: false

Column Item

The columns property regulates the presentation of columns on the JavaScript data grid, specifying characteristics such as the sequence of columns, their width, and the positioning of data within them.

Option Description
name?: string Determines the key of the data object to which the column refers.
title: string Required. Determines the text that will be displayed in the column Header.
width?: string This option specifies the width of the column and should be provided as a string with the unit of measurement, such as '200px' or '2.5em'. By default, the width is set to '100px'.
align?: string This option determines the alignment of the text within the cells of the column. It should be provided as a string with a valid entry. The available options are 'left', 'right', 'center', and 'justify'. By default, the alignment is set to 'left'.
render?: function render(cell, x, y, value, instance) => void

Instance

Property Description
data: object[] Change the state of data.
page: Number Change the page index.
pagination: Number Enable pagination.
search: Boolean Enable search.
sort: Function(sortBy: String, sortAsc: Boolean) Sort the data.
setValue: Function(x: Number String, y: Number, value: String)

Events

Event Description
onsearch?: (self) => void Called when a search happens.
onchangepage?: (self) => void Called when the user changes the page.
onupdate?: (self, object) => void Called when cell data is changed.

Important points

  • Reserved Properties: This library automatically generates an item for each index in the data array. Each array item contains two unique reserved properties, the el and parent, representing the DOM element and its parent self.
  • Modifying Cell Values: When a user double-clicks a cell, it becomes editable. You can exit the edition mode by pressing 'Enter' or clicking on a different cell in the data grid.

Examples

Create a Data Grid From a JSON.

The LemonadeJS Data Grid component is designed for creating high-performance data grids with features like search and pagination. It offers flexible settings for custom rendering and event handling. Below is a straightforward example demonstrating how to generate a grid from a JSON object:

Working with Large Data Sets

Upon creating a new data grid in LemonadeJS, an instance is generated that simplifies programmatic modifications. The following example highlights the data grid's ability to handle and load a large dataset. It also demonstrates the process of fetching data after initiating the data grid.

In this example, the mock data is retrieved from fakerapi.it, which is a free API for generating fake data.

Custom Cell Rendering

This example demonstrates the render property, which enables HTML rendering within data grid cells. This feature allows developers to design custom cell behaviours, tailoring the rendering process to specific requirements for each column.
