Old Documentation
You are browsing documentation for an old version of Tabulator. Consider upgrading your project to Tabulator 6.0

Virtual DOM Documentation

As of version 3.0 tabulator renders its table using a Virtual DOM, this means that it only renders the rows you seen in the table (plus a few above and below the current view) and creates and destroys the rows as you scroll through the table.

The table below has 1000 rows loaded as they are needed as you scroll

    {title:"Date Of Birth", field:"dob", hozAlign:"center", sorter:"date"},
    {title:"Driver", field:"car", hozAlign:"center"},
    ],
});

Fit To Data and Fill Documentation

By setting the layout option to fitDataFill, the table will resize the columns to fit their data, and ensure that rows takeup the full width of the table.

Source Code

HTML

<div id="example-table"></div>

JavaScript

var table = new Tabulator("#example-table", {
    layout:"fitDataFill",

    {title:"Rating", field:"rating", hozAlign:"center"},
    {title:"Favourite Color", field:"col"},
    ],
});

Fit To Data and Stretch Last Column Documentation

By setting the layout option to fitDataStretch, the table will resize the columns to fit their data, and stretch the final column to fill up the remaining width of the table.

Source Code

HTML

<div id="example-table"></div>

JavaScript

var table = new Tabulator("#example-table", {
    layout:"fitDataStretch",

Fit Table and Columns to Data Documentation

Tables will automatically resize container and columns to fit the data

Loading Example...
Source Code

HTML

<div id="example-table"></div>

JavaScript

var table = new Tabulator("#example-table", {
    height:"311px",
    layout:"fitDataTable",
    columns:[
        {title:"Name", field:"name"},
        {title:"Progress", field:"progress", hozAlign:"right", sorter:"number"},
        {title:"Gender", field:"gender"},
    ],
});

Fit To Width Documentation

By setting the layout option to fitColumns, the table will resize columns so that they fit perfectly inside the width of the container.

In this layout mode, columns without a width set are resized to fill any remaining space on the table. If all columns cannot fit on the table then a scrollbar will appear.

The widthGrow and widthShrink column definition properties can be used to set how much each column grows or shrinks by.

Source Code

HTML

<div id="example-table"></div>

JavaScript

var table = new Tabulator("#example-table", {
    height:"311px",
    layout:"fitColumns",
    columns:[
    {title:"Name", field:"name", width:200},
    {title:"Progress", field:"progress", hozAlign:"right", sorter:"number"},
    {title:"Gender", field:"gender", widthGrow:2},
    {title:"Rating", field:"rating", hozAlign:"center"},
    {title:"Favourite Color", field:"col", widthGrow:3},
    {title:"Date Of Birth", field:"dob", hozAlign:"center", sorter:"date", widthGrow:2},
    {title:"Driver", field:"car", hozAlign:"center"},
    ],
});

Responsive Layout Documentation

By setting the responsiveLayout option to "hide", the table will automatically hide/show columns to prevent the columns from exceeding the width of container.

If you resize the the width of the window you will see the number of columns change to ensure the data fits with the table. This option can be combined with fitColumns to make a table that gracefully responds to all display widths.

Source Code

HTML

<div id="example-table"></div>

JavaScript

var table = new Tabulator("#example-table", {
    height:"311px",
    responsiveLayout:"hide",
    columns:[
    {title:"Name", field:"name", width:200, responsive:0}, //never hide this column
    {title:"Progress", field:"progress", hozAlign:"right", sorter:"number", width:150},
    {title:"Gender", field:"gender", width:150, responsive:2}, //hide this column first
    {title:"Rating", field:"rating", hozAlign:"center", width:150},
    {title:"Favourite Color", field:"col", width:150},
    {title:"Date Of Birth", field:"dob", hozAlign:"center", sorter:"date", width:150},
    {title:"Driver", field:"car", hozAlign:"center", width:150},
    ],
});

Responsive Layout Collapsed List Documentation

By setting the responsiveLayout option to "collapse", the table will automatically collapse columns that don't fit on the table into a list of column titles and values.

If you resize the the width of the window you will see the number of columns change to ensure the data fits with the table and the collapsed list showing under each row.

    {title:"Driver", field:"car", hozAlign:"center", width:150},
    ],
});

Automatic Column Generation Documentation

Tabulator can automatically work out the columns structure of simple tables by examining the data in the first row of the table.

If you set the autoColumns option to true, every time data is loaded into the table through the data option or through the setData function, Tabulator will examine the first row of the data and build columns to match that data.

    {name:"James Newman", location:"Japan", gender:"male", col:"red", dob:"22/03/1998"},
];

Nested Tables

You can also use the rowFormatter callback to create tables nested in other tables.

You just need to make sure that the second tables data array is in a property of the first tables row data object, in this example we will use the property serviceHistory.

       holderEl.style.boxSizing = "border-box";
       holderEl.style.padding = "10px 30px 10px 10px";
       holderEl.style.borderTop = "1px solid #333";
       holderEl.style.borderBotom = "1px solid #333";
       

       tableEl.style.border = "1px solid #333";

       holderEl.appendChild(tableEl);

       row.getElement().appendChild(holderEl);

       var subTable = new Tabulator(tableEl, {
           layout:"fitColumns",
           data:row.getData().serviceHistory,

       })
    },
});

Formatters Documentation

Tabulator allows you to format your data in a wide variety of ways, so your tables can display information in a more graphical and clear layout.

you can set formatters on a per column basis using the formatter option in the column data.

Tabulator comes with a number of preconfigured formatters including:

  • money - formats a number into a currency notation (eg. 1234567.8901 -> 1,234,567.89)
  • image - creates an img element wirh the src set as the value. (triggers the normalizeHeight function on the row on image load)
  • link - renders data as an anchor with a link to the given value
  • tick - displays a green tick if the value is (true|'true'|'True'|1) and an empty cell if not
  • tickCross - displays a green tick if the value is (true|'true'|'True'|1) and a red cross if not
  • color - sets the background color of the cell to the value. Can be any valid css colour eg. #ff0000, #f00, rgb(255,0,0), red, rgba(255,0,0,0), hsl(0, 100%, 50%)
  • star - displays a graphical 0-5 star rating based on integer values from 0-5
  • progress - displays a progress bar that fills the cell from left to right, using values 0-100 as a percentage of width
  • buttonTick - displays a tick icon on each row (for use as a button)
  • buttonCross - displays a cross icon on each row (for use as a button)
  • rownum - shows an incrementing row number for each row.

You can define a custom formatter function in the formatter option if you need more bespoke formatter functionality

You can create icon/button columns, by not specifying a field parameter in the column data and creating a custom formatter for the column contents. In the example below we have created a print button on the left of each row.

You can also set a row formatter using the rowFormatter option, this allows you to format the styling of the row as a whole

    {title:"Line Wraping", field:"lorem" ,formatter:"textarea"},
    {formatter:"buttonCross", width:30, hozAlign:"center"}
    ],
});

Row Formatter Documentation

If you are looking for a non grid based format to your table then you can use a row formatter to create custom row layouts.

You can use the rowFormatter callback to replace the contents of the row with any layout you like. In this example we will create a simple table in each row containing and image and some vertically centered text properties.

When replacing the entire contents of the row it is important to include only one column in your column definition array to ensure the table renders correctly. It is also advisable to enable fitColumns and disabled resizableColumns options.

        data = row.getData(),
        width = element.offsetWidth,
        rowTable, cellContents;

        //clear current row data
        while(element.firstChild) element.removeChild(element.firstChild);

        //define a table layout structure and set width of row
        rowTable = document.createElement("table")
        rowTable.style.width = (width - 18) + "px";

        rowTabletr = document.createElement("tr");

        //add image on left of row
        cellContents = "<td><img src='/sample_data/row_formatter/" + data.image + "'></td>";

        //add row data on right hand side
        cellContents += "<td><div><strong>Type:</strong> " + data.type + "</div><div><strong>Age:</strong> " + data.age + "</div><div><strong>Rind:</strong> " + data.rind + "</div><div><strong>Colour:</strong> " + data.color + "</div></td>"

        rowTable.appendChild(rowTabletr);

        //append newly formatted contents to the row
        element.append(rowTable);
    },
});

Custom Formatters

You can use external JavaScript libraries in any of your custom formatters. in this example we will use the popular piety.js library.

We will be passing an array of values into a field and then using a custom formatter to turn this array into a line or bar chart.

The Piety library can be downloaded from Git Hub.

    var content = document.createElement("span");
    var values = cell.getValue();

    //invert values if needed
    if(formatterParams.invert){
        values = values.map(val => val * -1);
    }

    //add values to chart and style
    content.classList.add(formatterParams.type);
    content.innerHTML = values.join(",");

    //setup chart options
    var options = {
        width: 145,
    }

    if(formatterParams.fill){

Persistent Configuration Documentation

Tabulator can store a variety of table setup options so that each time a user comes back to the page, the table is laid out just as they left it

Try resizing (drag the right edge of a column header) or rearranging (drag the middle of a column header) the columns of this table, or sorting a column, then refresh the page. your new layout will persist.

Column Calculations Documentation

Column calculations can be used to add a row of calculated values to the top or bottom of your table to display information such as the sum of a columns data.

There are two options that can be set in a column definition object to define a calculation, the topCalc option defines a calculation for the top of the column, and the bottomCalc defines a calculation for the bottom of the column. You can define, either, both or neither of the options.

Load Table Data From Local File Documentation

Data can be loaded into the table from a local file using the setDataFromLocalFile function.

In the example below we also use the autoColumns feature to generate the column headers from the data as well, but you could just as easily predefine the columns

To start this example download the sample table data json file to your local computer.

Then click the button below to load sample data file.

Create from HTML Table Element Documentation

It is possible to convert a standard HTML Table element into a tabulator, pulling all the data directly from the table into the tabulator when it is created.

If you want to pull the column headers in from the table, you need to make sure that you have defiend a thead element with each column header in a th element. If you specify the width attribute on a header, then this will be set as the width of the column in the tabulator.

You can set any of the standard Tabulator options when you create your table this way, so can easily convert old tables to take advantage of the many features Tabulator has to offer.

Standard HTML Table:

Name Age Gender Height Favourite Color Date of Birth
Billy Bob 12 male 1 red 22/04/1994
Mary May 1 female 2 blue 14/05/1982

Converted to Tabulator:

Name Age Gender Height Favourite Color Date of Birth
Billy Bob 12 male 1 red 22/04/1994
Mary May 1 female 2 blue 14/05/1982

Editable Data Documentation

Using the editable setting on each column, you can make a user editable table.

Any time a cell is edited it triggers the cellEdited callback, to allow you to process any changes.

You can call the getData method to get an array of all of the tables data, including any edits

This table features a custom date editor on the Date of Birth column.

Loading Example...
Source Code

HTML

<div id="example-table"></div>

JavaScript

//Create Date Editor
var dateEditor = function(cell, onRendered, success, cancel){
    //cell - the cell component for the editable cell
    //onRendered - function to call when the editor has been rendered
    //success - function to call to pass thesuccessfully updated value to Tabulator
    //cancel - function to call to abort the edit and return to a normal cell

    //create and style input
    var cellValue = moment(cell.getValue(), "DD/MM/YYYY").format("YYYY-MM-DD"),
    input = document.createElement("input");

    input.setAttribute("type", "date");

    input.style.padding = "4px";
    input.style.width = "100%";
    input.style.boxSizing = "border-box";

    input.value = cellValue;

    onRendered(function(){
        input.focus();
        input.style.height = "100%";
    });

    function onChange(){
        if(input.value != cellValue){

});

Validate User Input Documentation

You can set validators on columns to ensure that any user input into your editable cells matches your requirements.

Validators can be applied by using the validator property in a columns definition object.

If the validation fails the tabulator-validation-fail class will be applied to the cell and the validationFailed callback will be triggered. The user will not be able to leave the cell until they input a valid value or cancel the edit (press escape).

The table below has the following validators applied to its columns:

  • Name - the field is required, it must have a value
  • Progress - minimum value of 0, maximum value of 100, must be a valid number
  • Gender - value must be either "male" or "female" and is required
  • Rating - minimum value of 0, maximum value of 5, must be a valid integer
  • Favourite Colour - minimum string length of 3, maximum string length of 10, bust be a string not a number

Filter Data Documentation

Tabulator allows you to filter the table data by any field in the data set.

To set a filter you need to call the setFilter method, passing the field you wish to filter, the comparison type and the value to filter for

Tabulator comes with a number of filter comparison types including:

  • = - Displays only rows with data that is the same as the filter
  • < - displays rows with a value less than the filter value
  • <= - displays rows with a value less than or qual to the filter value
  • > - displays rows with a value greater than the filter value
  • >= - displays rows with a value greater than or qual to the filter value
  • != - displays rows with a value that is not equal to the filter value
  • like - displays any rows with data that contains the specified string anywhere in the specified field. (case insensitive)

Filter Data In Header Documentation

By settting the headerFilter parameter for a column you can add column based filtering directly into your table.

See the documentation for Header Filtering for more information.

Sorters Documentation

By default Tabulator will attempt to guess which sorter should be applied to a column based on the data contained in the first row. It can determine sorters for strings, numbers, alphanumeric sequences and booleans, anything else will be treated as a string.

  • string - sorts column as strings of characters
  • number - sorts column as numbers (integer or float, will also handle numbers using "," separators)
  • alphanum - sorts column as alpha numeric code
  • boolean - sorts column as booleans
  • date - sorts column as dates
  • time - sorts column as times

To specify a sorter to be used on a column use the param property in the columns definition object

You can define a custom sorter functions in the sorter option if you need bespoke sorting functionality.

You can programmatically trigger a sort using the sort function.

Clicking on a column header will also trigger a sort of that column. You can sort by multiple columns by holding the ctrl or shift key when clicking on column headers.

Grouping Data Documentation

You can group rows together using the groupBy option. To group by a field, set this option to the name of the field.

To group by more complex operations you should pass a function that returns a string that represents the group.

});

Pagination Documentation

Tabulator allows you to paginate your data. simply set the pagination property to true.

If you have set the height of the table then the data will be automatically paginated to fit within the table.

If you wish to define how many rows should be shown on a page, set this in the paginationSize property. If you set the paginationSize without setting the height, the Tabulator will automatically resize to fit the data

Selectable Rows Documentation

Using the selectable option, you can allow users to select rows in the table via a number of different routes:

  • Clicking on a row, to toggle its state.
  • Holding down the shift key and click dragging over a number of rows to toggle the state of all rows the cursor passes over.
  • Programmatically with the selectRow and deselectRow functions.

Movable Rows Documentation

Using the movableRows property you can allow the user to move rows around the table by clicking and dragging.

By default this allows the user to drag anywhere on the row, in this example we use the rowHandle property in a column definition to create a row handle that can be used for dragging rows.

Interaction History Documentation

By setting the history option to true, you can make the table track any user changes to the table.

You can use the undo and redo functions to move through the users interaction history, undoing cell edits, row additions or deletions.

As long as the table is in focus (but not being edited) you can also use the ctrl + z and ctrl + y keyboard shortcuts to undo and redo actions.

The example below has an editable names column, try making some changes to soe of the names and then use the history functions to undo and redo the changes.
