##Live Demo

What is `vuetable`?

vuetable is a Vue.js component that will automatically request (JSON) data from the server and display them nicely in html table with swappable/extensible pagination sub-component. You can also add buttons to each row and hook an event to it

Please note that all the examples show in here are styling using Semantic UI CSS Framework, but vuetable should be able to work with any CSS framwork including Twitter's Bootstrap. Please read through and see more info below.

You do this:

    <div id="app" class="ui vertical stripe segment">
        <div class="ui container">
            <div id="content" class="ui basic segment">
                <h3 class="ui header">List of Users</h3>
                <vuetable
                    api-url="http://example.app:8000/api/users"
                    table-wrapper="#content"
                    :fields="columns"
                    :item-actions="itemActions"
                ></vuetable>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>

	<script>
	    new Vue({
	        el: '#app',
	        data: {
	            columns: [
	                'name',
	                'nickname',
	                'email',
	                'birthdate',
	                'gender',
	                '__actions'
				],
	            itemActions: [
	                { name: 'view-item', label: '', icon: 'zoom icon', class: 'ui teal button' },
	                { name: 'edit-item', label: '', icon: 'edit icon', class: 'ui orange button'},
	                { name: 'delete-item', label: '', icon: 'delete icon', class: 'ui red button' }
	            ]
	        },
	        methods: {
	            viewProfile: function(id) {
	                console.log('view profile with id:', id)
	            }
	        },
	        events: {
	            'vuetable:action': function(action, data) {
	                console.log('vuetable:action', action, data)
	                if (action == 'view-item') {
	                    this.viewProfile(data.id)
	                }
	            },
	            'vuetable:load-error': function(response) {
	                console.log('Load Error: ', response)
	            }
	        }
        })
	</script>

And you get this!

Since I'm mainly using Semantic UI as my default CSS Framework, all the css styles in vuetable are based on Semantic UI. If you're using Twitter's Bootstrap css framework, please see documentation in the Wiki pages.

Usage

Bower

$ bower install vuetable

NPM

$ npm install vuetable

Direct include

Just import the vue-table.js after vue.js and vue-resource.js library in your page like so.

	<script src="js/vue.js"></script>
	<script src="js/vue-resource.js"></script>
	<script src="js/vue-table.js"></script>

Then, reference the vuetable via <vuetable> tag as following

	<div id="app">
	    <vuetable
	        api-url="/api/users"
	        :fields="columns"
	    ></vuetable>
    </div>

	<script>
		new Vue({
			el: '#app',
			columns: [
				'firstname',
				'lastname',
				'nickname',
				'birthdate',
				'group.name_en'
				'gender',
				'last_login',
				'__actions'
			]
		})
	</script>

api-url is the url of the api that vuetable should request data from. The returned data must be in the form of JSON formatted with at least the number of fields defined in fields property.
fields is the fields mapping that will be used to display data in the table. You can provide only the name of the fields to be used. But if you would like to get the true power of vuetable, you must provide some more information. Please see Field Definition section for more detail.

For more detail, please see documentation in the Wiki pages.
