## Table Display multiple data with similar format. You can sort, filter, compare your data in a table. ### Basic table Basic table is just for data display. :::demo After setting attribute `data` of `el-table` with an object array, you can use `prop` (corresponding to a key of the object in `data` array) in `el-table-column` to insert data to table columns, and set the attribute `label` to define the column name. You can also use the attribute `width` to define the width of columns. ```html ``` ::: ### Striped Table Striped table makes it easier to distinguish different rows. :::demo Attribute `stripe` accepts a `Boolean`. If `true`, table will be striped. ```html ``` ::: ### Table with border :::demo By default, Table has no vertical border. If you need it, you can set attribute `border` to `true`. ```html ``` ::: ### Table with status You can highlight your table content to distinguish between "success, information, warning, danger" and other states. :::demo Use `row-class-name` in `el-table` to add custom classes to a certain row. Then you can style it with custom classes. ```html ``` ::: ### Table with fixed header When there are too many rows, you can use a fixed header. :::demo By setting the attribute `height` of `el-table`, you can fix the table header without any other codes. ```html ``` ::: ### Table with fixed column When there are too many columns, you can fix some of them. :::demo Attribute `fixed` is used in `el-table-column`, it accepts a `Boolean`. If `true`, the column will be fixed at left. It also accepts two string literals: 'left' and 'right', both indicating that the column will be fixed at corresponding direction. ```html ``` ::: ### Table with fixed columns and header When you have huge chunks of data to put in a table, you can fix the header and columns at the same time. :::demo Fix columns and header at the same time by combining the above two examples. ```html ``` ::: ### Fluid-height Table with fixed header (and columns) When the the data is dynamically changed, you might want the table to have a maximum height rather than a fixed height and to show the scroll bar if needed. :::demo By setting the attribute `max-height` of `el-table`, you can fix the table header. The table body scrolls only if the height of the rows exceeds the max height value. ```html ``` ::: ### Grouping table head When the data structure is complex, you can use group header to show the data hierarchy. :::demo Only need to place el-table-column inside a el-table-column, you can achieve group header. ```html ``` ::: ### Single select Single row selection is supported. :::demo Table supports single row selection. You can activate it by adding the `highlight-current-row` attribute. An event called `current-change` will be triggered when row selection changes, and its parameters are the rows after and before this change: `currentRow` and `oldCurrentRow`. If you need to display row index, you can add a new `el-table-column` with its `type` attribute assigned to `index`, and you will see the index starting from 1. ```html ``` ::: ### Multiple select You can also select multiple rows. :::demo Activating multiple selection is easy: simply add an `el-table-column` with its `type` set to `selection`. Apart from multiple selection, this example also uses `show-overflow-tooltip`: by default, if the content is too long, it will break into multiple lines. If you want to keep it in one line, use attribute `show-overflow-tooltip`, which accepts a `Boolean` value. When set `true`, the extra content will show in tooltip when hover on the cell. ```html ``` ::: ### Sorting Sort the data to find or compare data quickly. :::demo Set attribute `sortable` in a certain column to sort the data based on this column. It accepts `Boolean` with a default value `false`. Set table attribute `default-sort` to determine default sort column and order. To apply your own sorting rules, use `sort-method`. If you need remote sorting from backend, set `sortable` to `custom`, and listen to the `sort-change` event on Table. In the event handler, you have access to the sorting column and sorting order so that you can fetch sorted table data from API. In this example we use another attribute named `formatter` to format the value of certain columns. It accepts a function which has two parameters: `row` and `column`. You can handle it according to your own needs. ```html ``` ::: ### Filter Filter the table to find desired data. :::demo Set attribute `filters` and `filter-method` in `el-table-column` makes this column filterable. `filters` is an array, and `filter-method` is a function deciding which rows are displayed. It has two parameters: `value` and `row`. ```html ``` ::: ### Custom column template Customize table column so it can be integrated with other components. :::demo You have access to the following data: row, column, $index and store (state management of Table) by [Scoped slot](https://vuejs.org/v2/guide/components.html#Scoped-Slots). (Scoped slots is supported from `1.1`, `inline-template` still works, but it's not recommended). ```html ``` ::: ### Expandable row When the row content is too long and you do not want to display the horizontal scroll bar, you can use the expandable row feature. :::demo Activate expandable row by adding type="expand" and scoped slot. The template for el-table-column will be rendered as the contents of the expanded row, and you can access the same attributes as when you are using `Scoped slot` in custom column templates. ```html ``` ::: ### Summary row For table of numbers, you can add an extra row at the table footer displaying each column's sum. :::demo You can add the summary row by setting `show-summary` to `true`. By default, for the summary row, the first column does not sum anything up but always displays 'Sum' (you can configure the displayed text using `sum-text`), while other columns sum every number in that column up and display them. You can of course define your own sum behaviour. To do so, pass a method to `summary-method`, which returns an array, and each element of the returned array will be displayed in the columns of the summary row. The second table of this example is a detailed demo. ```html ``` ::: ### Table Attributes | Attribute | Description | Type | Accepted Values | Default | |---------- |-------------- |---------- |-------------------------------- |-------- | | data | table data | array | — | — | | height | Table's height.
