vuetable - django backend zero configuration modification

这个是vuetable的django后台改造版本。针对 django-restframework的翻页需求，改造vue-table，使之用最少的配置，就可以搭配rest后台。 改造中尽可能少侵入原代码。以保证良好的可升级性。 感谢@ratiw，原始代码结构非常好，很容易改造。

vuetable - data table simplify!

• No need to render the table yourself
• One simple vuetable tag
• Display data retrieved from server with sort options
• Support multi-column sorting (v1.2.0) by @balping
• Pagination component included, swap-able and extensible
• Define fields to map your JSON data structure
• Define row actions and capture the click event to do whatever you want
• Field display customizable via options and callback function inside Vue.js instance
• Programmatically show/hide any field via reactivity of fields definition
• Use your favorite CSS framework classes to nicely format your table and dispalyed data
• Events to allow control from Vue.js instance programmatically
• Capture events from vuetable to manipulate your table and your data
• Should work with any pre-defined JSON data structure
• Should work with any CSS Framework, e.g. Semantic UI, Twitter's Bootstrap
• Optional detail row to display additional data (v.1.2.0)

Breaking Changes

v.1.2.0

• sort-order option type was changed from Object to Array to support multi-sort, therefore it should be declared as array. #36

  <vuetable 
    //...
    :sort-order="[{ field: 'name', direction: 'asc' }]"
  ></vuetable>

What is vuetable?

vuetable is a Vue.js component that will automatically request (JSON) data from the server and display them nicely in html table with swappable/extensible pagination sub-component. You can also add buttons to each row and hook an event to it

Please note that all the examples show in here are styling using Semantic UI CSS Framework, but vuetable should be able to work with any CSS framwork including Twitter's Bootstrap. Please read through and see more info below.

You do this:

    <div id="app" class="ui vertical stripe segment">
        <div class="ui container">
            <div id="content" class="ui basic segment">
                <h3 class="ui header">List of Users</h3>
                <vuetable
                    api-url="http://example.app:8000/api/users"
                    table-wrapper="#content"
                    :fields="columns"
                    :item-actions="itemActions"
                ></vuetable>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>

    <script>
        new Vue({
            el: '#app',
            data: {
                columns: [
                    'name',
                    'nickname',
                    'email',
                    'birthdate',
                    'gender',
                    '__actions'
                ],
                itemActions: [
                    { name: 'view-item', label: '', icon: 'zoom icon', class: 'ui teal button' },
                    { name: 'edit-item', label: '', icon: 'edit icon', class: 'ui orange button'},
                    { name: 'delete-item', label: '', icon: 'delete icon', class: 'ui red button' }
                ]
            },
            methods: {
                viewProfile: function(id) {
                    console.log('view profile with id:', id)
                }
            },
            events: {
                'vuetable:action': function(action, data) {
                    console.log('vuetable:action', action, data)
                    if (action == 'view-item') {
                        this.viewProfile(data.id)
                    }
                },
                'vuetable:load-error': function(response) {
                    console.log('Load Error: ', response)
                }
            }
        })
    </script>

And you get this!

Since I'm mainly using Semantic UI as my default CSS Framework, all the css styles in vuetable are based on Semantic UI. If you're using Twitter's Bootstrap css framework, please see documentation in the Wiki pages.

Usage

Bower

$ bower install vuetable

NPM

$ npm install vuetable

Vueify version for Browserify and Webpack

Just import or require like so,

//
// firstly, require or import vue and vue-resource
//
var Vue = require('vue');
var VueResource = require('vue-resource');
Vue.use(VueResource);
 
//
// secondly, require or import Vuetable and optional VuetablePagination component
//
import Vuetable from 'vuetable/src/components/Vuetable.vue';
import VuetablePagination from 'vuetable/src/components/VuetablePagination.vue';
import VuetablePaginationDropdown  from 'vuetable/src/components/VuetablePaginationDropdown.vue';
import VuetablePaginationBootstrap from 'vuetable/src/components/VuetablePaginationBootstrap.vue';
 
//
// thirdly, register components to Vue
//
Vue.component('vuetable', Vuetable);
Vue.component('vuetable-pagination', VuetablePagination)
Vue.component('vuetable-pagination-dropdown', VuetablePaginationDropdown)
Vue.component('vuetable-pagination-bootstrap', VuetablePaginationBootstrap)
 

You can combine the second and third steps into one if you like.

You need to explicitly register the pagination components using Vue.component() (instead of just declaring them through the components: section); otherwise, the pagination component will not work or swappable or extensible. I guess this is because it is embedded inside vuetable component.

Direct include

Just import the vue-table.js after vue.js and vue-resource.js library in your page like so.

    <script src="js/vue.js"></script> 
    <script src="js/vue-resource.js"></script> 
    <script src="js/vue-table.js"></script> 

Then, reference the vuetable via <vuetable> tag as following

    <div id="app">
        <vuetable
            api-url="/api/users"
            :fields="columns"
        ></vuetable>
    </div>
 
    <script>
        new Vue({
            el: '#app',
            columns: [
                'firstname',
                'lastname',
                'nickname',
                'birthdate',
                'group.name_en',
                'gender',
                'last_login',
                '__actions'
            ]
        })
    </script> 

• api-url is the url of the api that vuetable should request data from. The returned data must be in the form of JSON formatted with at least the number of fields defined in fields property.
• fields is the fields mapping that will be used to display data in the table. You can provide only the name of the fields to be used. But if you would like to get the true power of vuetable, you must provide some more information. Please see Field Definition section for more detail.

For more detail, please see documentation in the Wiki pages.

Building

Run npm install

Then make sure, you have installed browserify:

# npm install browserify -g

You might need root access for running the above command.

Then you can simply run the build script included in the root folder:

$ ./build.sh

This will compile the vue components in the src directory to one file in the dist folder.

You might want to get a minified version, in this case run this:

$ ./build.sh production

For developement it's useful when it's not needed to recompile manually each time you make a change. If you want this convenience first install watchify globally:

# npm install watchify -g

then run

$ ./build.sh watch

Now each time you make a change, the source will be recompiled automatically.

Browser Compatability

As I use Chrome almost exclusively, it is gaurantee to work on this browser and it SHOULD also work for other WebKit based browsers as well. But I can't really gaurantee that since I don't use them regularly.

However, vuetable will NOT WORK on Internet Explorer (even IE11) due to the use of <template> tag inside <table> according to this. In order to make it work with CSS framework table styling, I have to preserve the use of <table> and <template> tag inside it.

It seems to work just fine in Microsoft Edge though. Anyway, if you find that it does not work on any other browser, you can let me know by posting in the Issues. Or if you are able to make it work on those browser, please let me know or create a pull request.

Contributions

Any contribution to the code (via pull request would be nice) or any part of the documentation (the Wiki always need some love and care) and any idea and/or suggestion are very welcome.

However, please do not feel bad if your pull requests or contributions do not get merged or implemented into vuetable.

Your contributions can, not only help make vuetable better, but also push it away from what I intend to use it for. I just hope that you find it useful for your use or learn something useful from its source code. But remember, you can always fork it to make it work the way you want.
