Data Table
Data tables display sets of data.
Design & API Documentation
Installation
npm install @material/data-table
Styles
@import "@material/data-table/mdc-data-table";
NOTE: Styles for any components you intend to include within data-table (e.g. Checkboxes, etc.) must also be imported.
JavaScript Instantiation
import {MDCDataTable} from '@material/data-table';
const dataTable = new MDCDataTable(document.querySelector('.mdc-data-table'));
See Importing the JS component for more information on how to import JavaScript.
Instantiating
MDCDataTable
component is only required to add interactions for example, row selection.
MDC Data Table component auto instantiates MDCCheckbox
for header row checkbox and all row checkboxes. Make sure to set required class names to instantiate checkbox component. We suggest to use layout
API when rows are added or removed from data table to register new checkbox components.
