React Bootstrap Datatable

Inspired by react-data-components. This library uses react-bootstrap stylesheets and javascripts. In addition, this library also uses font-awesome for the table header, clear filter, and other stuffs.

This is the v3 version of the library. To see the v2 version of README, please visit the v1 branch.

What's new in v3?

• New build and publish system. Previously, this library used Webpack for bundling etc.—now it only uses tsc to compile the TypeScript files to output all files to the lib folder.
• ESM and CommonJS are now supported. There are 2 new TypeScript configurations in the project, one is used for building ESM and the other is for building CommonJS.
• Updated Storybook. Previously, this library still used storiesOf, but now it is using Component Story Format (CSF), which was available starting from Storybook v5.
• Lots of optimizations, bundle size in particular. As reported by Bundlephobia for the Alpha version, the minified size is down to just a quarter of what it was, whereas the minified + gzip is down to a third of what it was.
• Replaced font-awesome CSS with the React components of Font Awesome. This allowed us to enable tree shaking, which resulted in the optimization point above.
• Drop support for all other libraries. This library will now only support Bootstrap tables.
• Auto generate component APIs.

Usage

For more complete examples, please visit this sandbox link (https://codesandbox.io/s/react-bs-datatable-3-typescript-bn234b) or the Storybook demo (https://imballinst.github.io/react-bs-datatable).

import React from 'react';
import {
  DatatableWrapper,
  Filter,
  Pagination,
  PaginationOpts,
  TableBody,
  TableHeader
} from 'react-bs-datatable';
import { Col, Row, Table } from 'react-bootstrap';

import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css';

// Create table headers consisting of 4 columns.
const headers = [
  { title: 'Username', prop: 'username' },
  { title: 'Name', prop: 'realname' },
  { title: 'Location', prop: 'location' }
];

// Randomize data of the table columns.
// Note that the fields are all using the `prop` field of the headers.
const body = Array.from(new Array(57), () => {
  const rd = (Math.random() * 10).toFixed(1);

  if (rd > 0.5) {
    return {
      username: 'i-am-billy',
      realname: `Billy ${rd}`,
      location: 'Mars'
    };
  }

  return {
    username: 'john-nhoj',
    realname: `John ${rd}`,
    location: 'Saturn'
  };
});

// Then, use it in a component.
function TableComponent() {
  return (
    
      
        
          
      
        
      <table>
        </table>
    
  );
