About

Quickly Create React Data Tables with Material Design

A good table library should offer you powerful features, with an easy way to customize them, or even opt out and turn them off. It should also offer a bunch of advanced features to take your tables to the next level, but without sacrificing too bundle size bloat. MRT attempts to find that happy balance.

MRT is built on top of TanStack Table's react hooks to build upon it's high performance and flexibility.

Getting Started

Installation

View the full Installation Docs

  1. Ensure that you have React 17 or later installed (MUI V5 requires React 17 or 18)

  2. Install Peer Dependencies (Material UI V5)

npm install @mui/material @mui/icons-material @emotion/react @emotion/styled
  1. Install material-react-table
npm install material-react-table

@tanstack/react-table, @tanstack/react-virtual, and @tanstack/match-sorter-utils are internal dependencies, so you do NOT need to install them yourself.

Usage

Read the full usage docs here

import React, { useMemo, useRef, useState, useEffect } from 'react';
import MaterialReactTable from 'material-react-table';

const data = [
  {
    name: 'John',
    age: 30,
  },
  {
    name: 'Sara',
    age: 25,
  },
]

export default function App() {
  const columns = useMemo(
    () => [
      {
        accessorKey: 'name', //simple recommended way to define a column
        header: 'Name',
        muiTableHeadCellProps: { sx: { color: 'green' } }, //optional custom props
        Cell: ({ cell}) => <span>{cell.getValue()}</span>, //optional custom cell render
      },
      {
        accessorFn: (row) => row.age, //alternate way
        id: 'age', //id required if you use accessorFn instead of accessorKey
        header: 'Age',
        Header: () => <i>Age</i>, //optional custom header render
      },
    ],
    [],
  );

  //optionally, you can manage any/all of the table state yourself
  const [rowSelection, setRowSelection] = useState({});

  useEffect(() => {
    //do something when the row selection changes
  }, [rowSelection]);

  //Or, optionally, you can get a reference to the underlying table instance
  const tableInstanceRef = useRef(null);

  const someEventHandler = () => {
    //read the table state during an event from the table instance ref
    console.log(tableInstanceRef.current.getState().sorting);
  }

  return (
    <MaterialReactTable 
      columns={columns} 
      data={data} 
      enableColumnOrdering //enable some features
      enableRowSelection 
      enablePagination={false} //disable a default feature
      onRowSelectionChange={setRowSelection} //hoist internal state to your own state (optional)
      state={{ rowSelection }} //manage your own state, pass it back to the table (optional)
      tableInstanceRef={tableInstanceRef} //get a reference to the underlying table instance (optional)
    />
  );
}
