DataTable

Table with global search, column sorting, pagination and a column visibility toggle, built on TanStack Table.

DataTable lives in its own entry point so that TanStack Table stays out of bundles that do not need it. Install the optional peer first.

<script lang="ts">
  import { DataTable, createCaColumnHelper } from "@codeatlasdev/ui/table";
  type User = { name: string };
  const users: User[] = [{ name: "Ana Souza" }, { name: "Bruno Lima" }];

  const col = createCaColumnHelper<User>();
  const columns = col.columns([
    col.accessor("name", { header: "Name", meta: { label: "Name" } }),
  ]);
</script>

<DataTable {columns} data={users} />

There are two modes. In simple mode you pass columns and data and the table searches, sorts and paginates locally. In controlled mode you pass globalFilter, pagination and sorting together with their change handlers, and feed it one page of data plus total, which is what you want for server-side data.

Simple mode

Pass `columns` and `data`. Search, sort and pagination are managed automatically.

Building blocks

DataTable is assembled from the parts below, all exported from @codeatlasdev/ui/table. You rarely need them: use them standalone when you render your own <table> markup around a table instance made with createCaTable, for example a layout DataTable does not offer. Inside DataTable the toolbar, pagination and column toggle are already wired. Use DataTableColumnHeader as a column header to get a sortable header, and pass DataTableFacetedFilter as children of DataTable.

<script lang="ts">
  import { renderComponent } from "@tanstack/svelte-table";
  import { createCaColumnHelper, DataTableColumnHeader } from "@codeatlasdev/ui/table";
  type User = { name: string };

  const col = createCaColumnHelper<User>();
  const columns = col.columns([
    col.accessor("name", {
      header: ({ column }) =>
        renderComponent(DataTableColumnHeader<User, string>, { column, title: "Name" }),
      meta: { label: "Name" },
    }),
  ]);
</script>

createCaColumnHelper, createCaTable, caTableFeatures and the CaColumn, CaColumnDef, CaColumnMeta, CaTable and CaTableFeatures types are exported from the same entry point. meta.label is the name shown in the column visibility menu.

DataTableToolbar props

PropTypeDefaultDescription
tableCaTable<TData>–Table instance from `createCaTable`. Required.
totalnumber–Result count shown in the toolbar. Required.
globalFilterstring–Current search value. Required.
onGlobalFilterChange(v: string) => void–Called when the user types in the search box. Required.
searchPlaceholderstringundefinedPlaceholder and accessible name of the search input.
isLoadingbooleanundefinedShows a spinner.
isExportingbooleanundefinedDisables the export button and shows a spinner in it.
onExport() => voidundefinedRenders the export button. It is disabled while `total` is 0.
childrenSnippetundefinedFilter controls rendered next to the search box.

The toolbar always includes DataTableColumnToggle on its right side.

DataTablePagination props

PropTypeDefaultDescription
tableCaTable<TData>–Table instance from `createCaTable`. Required.
totalnumber–Total row count shown next to the page indicator. Required.

It renders a page size select (10, 20, 50 or 100 rows), a page / pages indicator and previous and next buttons.

DataTableColumnHeader props

PropTypeDefaultDescription
columnCaColumn<TData, TValue>–Column the header belongs to. Required.
titlestring–Header text. Required.
classstring''Extra class names.

A sortable column renders a button that toggles sorting and shows the direction icon. A column that cannot sort renders the plain title.

DataTableColumnToggle props

PropTypeDefaultDescription
tableCaTable<TData>–Table instance from `createCaTable`. Required.

A menu of checkboxes, one per column that can be hidden. It follows the menu keyboard pattern: arrow keys move, Space and Enter toggle, Escape closes.

DataTableFacetedFilter props

titlestring–Label of the filter button. Required.
facetsRecord<string, number>{}Option key to result count. Options are sorted by count, highest first.
