I am looking to present some data in an interactive table on a web page, using the DataTables javascript library. The example I am interested in looks like this . This table is great because child rows showing extra(detailed) information can be shown and then hidden. The JSON data I am trying to display looks like this
{
"data": [
{
"student_name": "jack",
"subjects": {
"math": {
"cat1_grade": "30",
"cat2_grade": "39",
"cat3_grade": "38"
},
"english": {
"cat1_grade": "30",
"cat2_grade": "39",
"cat3_grade": "38"
},
"swahili": {
"cat1_grade": "30",
"cat2_grade": "39",
"cat3_grade": "38"
}
},
"subject1_average": "35",
"subject2_average": "26",
"subject3_average": "59"
}
]
}
I want my table to have columns for student name,subject1 average,subject2 average and subject3 average. When a row is expanded it should have under the student name their scores for each one of the cat(continuous assesment tests) for each subject area.
Currently I am not sure how to deal with the nested data. In the example the format(d) function displays more data, but the data is pretty straight forward.
/* Formatting function for row details - modify as you need */
function format ( d ) {
// `d` is the original data object for the row
return '<table cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" border="0" style="padding-left:50px;">'+
'<tr>'+
'<td>Full name:</td>'+
'<td>'+d.name+'</td>'+
'</tr>'+
'<tr>'+
'<td>Extension number:</td>'+
'<td>'+d.extn+'</td>'+
'</tr>'+
'<tr>'+
'<td>Extra info:</td>'+
'<td>And any further details here (images etc)...</td>'+
'</tr>'+
'</table>';
}
My question is how do I get the javascript to decode each of the items in the subjects 'field' and display them in the table when expanded. I am not really familiar with javascript or JSON really. I am more familiar with Python on desktops. I am not even sure if this is the best library.
If there's something that works well with python, do share though I suspect that when it comes to displaying data on a web page, javascript is king
Interesting one this. Basically it's a question of iterating over the object/objects using $.each
. A working example here ( http://jsfiddle.net/annoyingmouse/mqrckaft/ ) though I'm not 100% sure I like the format of your data. It might be possible to work out the average on the render of each row rather than doing it server-side as I'm guessing you are? Also, the link between child rows seems nebulous, there is no allowance for missed values etc.
After have a response from the called ajax, you can try the following:
resp.success(function (data) {
json = JSON.parse(data.d);
if (json.Table != 0) {
$('#tablaReportes').DataTable({
"destroy": true,
"searching": false,
"ordering": false,
"lengthChange": false,
"pageLength": 1,
//----------------------------------------------------
data: json.Table,
columns: [
{'data': 'C019fechaRegistro'},
{'data': 'C019alertaIn'},
{'data': 'C019accionIn'},
{'data': 'C019NomUsuario'},
{'defaultContent': "<button type='button' class='btn btn-warning' onclick='grafica()'> <span class='fa fa-line-chart'></span></button> "
+ "<button type='button' class='btn btn-primary' onclick='verObservacion()'> <span class='fa fa-comments-o'></span></button>"
}
//{
//// 'render': function () {
//// return '<button type="button" onclick="grafica()" id="ButtonEditar" class="btn btn-warning"><span class="fa fa-line-chart"></span></button> ' +
//// '<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" onclick="verObservacion()"><i class="fa fa-comments-o"></i></button>';
// //}
//}
],
});
});
