I am using the JSONTable plugin and trying to pass values to the 'head' and 'json', dynamically, by taking them from an array object. For example I could load a new json file convert it to js object and read the fresh 'head' and 'json' attributes.
$("#dataTable").jsonTable({
head : ['#','Operating System','Market Share'],
json : ['id', 'name', 'share']
});
I faced similar problems while using other plugins. I know this should be a very obvious thing, but haven't been able to figure out how to do this. I have tried passing the entire function in a string, but that renders it into a string and not a function object. Any help will be appreciated. thanks!
You can read the properties of the first item in the array and use them as column names ( here is a test):
HTML:
<textarea id="data" cols="60" rows="10">[
{"id" : 1, "name" : "iOS", "share" : 57.56},
{"id" : 2, "name" : "Android", "share" : 24.66},
{"id" : 3, "name" : "Java ME", "share" : 10.72},
{"id" : 4, "name" : "Symbian", "share" : 2.49},
{"id" : 4, "name" : "Blackberry", "share" : 2.26},
{"id" : 4, "name" : "Windows Phone", "share" : 1.33}
]</textarea><br />
<input type="button" id="fillButton" value="Fill table" /><br/>
<table id="dataTable"></table>
JavaScript:
function fillTable(tableId, jsonString) {
var data = JSON.parse(jsonString),
dataColumn, dataColumns = [];
if(!(data instanceof Array) || data.length === 0)
return;
for (dataColumn in data[0])
if (data[0].hasOwnProperty(dataColumn))
dataColumns.push(dataColumn);
$("#" + tableId)
.html("<table id='" + tableId + "'><thead></thead><tbody></tbody></table>")
.jsonTable({
head: dataColumns,
json: dataColumns,
})
.jsonTableUpdate({
source: data
});
}
$("#fillButton").click(function () {
fillTable("dataTable", $("#data").val());
});
Result:
id name share
1 iOS 57.56
2 Android 24.66
3 Java ME 10.72
4 Symbian 2.49
4 Blackberry 2.26
4 Windows Phone 1.33
Try changing data values in the <textarea>
and press the button. You can change column names only when the names are changed everywhere in the JSON.
