Currently i have a data table with hard coded column headers and filling in data.. I would like to change this table to make it dynamic so the user can pick the columns to build the table. I would like to know how or in what way i will have to change my json object to ensure dynamic column data table creation.
This is what i have tried but the data is not being loaded.
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th *ngFor="let col of columnArray">{{col}}</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<table>
<tbody>
<tr *ngFor="let col of columnArray">
<td *ngFor="let data of columnData"> {{col.data}} </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
Currently since my data for the table comes from one object with hard coded headers here is my current working object:
data = [ {'id': 'idValue', 'name': 'nameValue', 'date': 'dateValue', 'description': 'descriptionValue'}, ...
]
but since i don't know what columns the user will pick to create the table it may be columns: id, name, description. Or columns: id, name. I need to have the data flexible so that when the user picks which ever columns to display in a table
Working format of the data:
columnArray = [ {'header': 'headerValue', 'data': 'dataValue'}, ...
]
Then the template can be:
<table>
<thead>
<tr><th *ngFor="let col of columnArray">{{col.header}}></th></tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td *ngFor="let col of columnArray"> {{col.data}} </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
If you can provide the data format more apt solution can be provided.
EDIT#1:
Based on your data format, I'd extract keys from an object in your data array for headers.
headers = Object.keys(data[0]);
Then the html should be:
<table>
<thead>
<tr><th *ngFor="let col of headers">{{col}}></th></tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr *ngFor="let obj of data">
<td *ngFor="let col of headers"> {{obj[col]}} </td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
