Functional Data Grid

NPM license

This is a library made with React and React-Virtualized for creating rich data grids with filtering, sorting, grouping and aggregates computation. It supports virtualization, and so it can handle very large amounts of data. It features also locked columns, custom renderers, multi-column headers, columns resize, hide / show columns and variable rows height. Filtering, sorting, grouping and aggregates computation are done client-side.

Functional Data Grid is written in functional programming style with ES2016 and Flow. It's really fast and is being used in production with tens of thousands of elements.

Installation

You can install the library with NPM:

npm install –-save functional-data-grid

or with YARN:

yarn add functional-data-grid

Usage

To use Functional Data Grid, you have to import the library and its base types you intend to use, for example:

import FunctionalDataGrid, { Column, Group } from 'functional-data-grid'

then you can use it inside your component. For example:

import React from 'react'
import FunctionalDataGrid, { Column } from 'functional-data-grid'
 
let columns = [
  new Column({
    id : 'name',
    title: 'Name',
    width: 120,
    valueGetter: e => e.name
  }),
  new Column({
    id : 'surname',
    title: 'Surname',
    width: 120,
    valueGetter: e => e.surname
  })
]
 
let data = [
  {
    'name': 'Donald',
    'surname': 'Duck'
  },
  {
    'name': 'Mickey',
    'surname': 'Mouse'
  }
]
 
class MyGrid extends React.Component {
 
  render = () => <FunctionalDataGrid columns={columns} data={data} />
 
}

Component Props

The FunctionalDataGrid component accepts the following props:

Prop	Required / optional	Default	Description
columns	required		An array of Column with columns definitions
columnGroups	optional		An array of ColumnGroup with column group definitions
data	required		An array of elements to show in the grid, one per row
initialFilter	optional	No filters	An array of Filter to filter the elements
initialSort	optional	No sorting	An array of Sort to sort the elements
groups	optional	No grouping	An array of Group to specify grouping of the elements
aggregatesCalculator	optional	No aggregates	A function to compute the aggregates from an array of elements
style	optional	{}	Allows to specify additional styles for the grid: accepts an object with the optional properties grid, cell, header, row. Row must be a function that accepts a DataRow and returns an Object, the other properties are plain Objects
rowHeight	optional	26	The height of the rows or a function that accepts an element and returns its row height
height	optional	100%	The height of the FunctionalDataGrid component div (unit of measurement needed, f.e.: 800px)
showGroupHeaders	optional	true	Set to false to hide the headers for groups
includeFilteredElementsInAggregates	optional	false	It allows to calculate the aggregates based on all the elements, also the filtered ones
onColumnResize	optional		Allows to specify an event handler for the column resize event
onColumnVisibilityChange	optional		Allows to specify an event handler for the column visibility change event
onColumnsOrderChange	optional		Allows to specify an event handler for the column order change event
showFooter	optional	true	Shows the footer of the grid with the elements count
enableColumnsShowAndHide	optional	false	Allows the user to show and hide columns
enableColumnsSorting	optional	false	Allows the user to change the order of the columns
overscanRowCount	optional	10	Number of rows to render above/below the visible bounds of the grid
className	optional	''	Css classes to apply to the component

Columns definition

Columns are defined by creating an instance of the class Column. Column constructor accepts an object with the following keys:

Key	Required / optional	Default	Description
id	required		A unique id for the column
title	optional	empty	The title shown on the column header
filterable	optional	false	Enables filtering on this column
sortable	optional	false	Enables sorting on this column
resizable	optional	true	Enables resizing for this column
locked	optional	false	Locks the column so that it doesn’t disappear on scrolling
hidden	optional	false	Hides the column
width	optional		The width of the column
valueGetter	required		Specifies how to get the value to show in the column from the original row element
aggregateValueGetter	optional		Specifies how to get the value to show in the column from the aggregate row element
renderer	optional	v => v	Specifies how to render the column value
aggregateRenderer	optional	= renderer	Specifies how to render the aggregate column value
filterRenderer	optional		Specifies how to render the filter in the header
headerRenderer	optional	(column) => column.title	Specifies how to render the header
headerStyle	optional	{}	Allows to specify additional styles for the column header
style	optional	{}	Allows to specify additional styles for the column
comparator	optional	(a, b) => a === b ? 0 : a < b ? -1 : 1	Specifies a comparator for the sorting function
columnGroup	optional	null	The id of the column's column group
enableShowAndHide	optional	true	Allows the user to show and hide column

Groups definition

Groups are defined by creating an instance of the class Group. Group constructor accepts an object with the following keys:

Key	Required / optional	Default	Description
id	required		A unique id for the column
title	optional	empty	The title shown on the group header
groupingFunction	required		A function that compute the takes an element and compute the corresponding key
renderer	optional	(v, g) => { g.title }: { v }	The title shown on the group header
comparator	optional	(a: K, b: K) => a === b ? 0 : (a: any) < (b: any) ? -1 : 1	The comparator used to sort the groups
