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.

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

<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.

columns | ColumnDef[] | – | Column definitions created with `createCaColumnHelper`. Required. |
data | TData[] | – | Row data. In simple mode pass all rows; in controlled mode pass the current page. Required. |
total | number | data.length | Total row count after filtering, used to compute the page count. Ignored in simple mode. |
globalFilter | string | undefined | Search value. Passing it switches the table to controlled mode. |
onGlobalFilterChange | (v: string) => void | undefined | Called when the user types in the search box. |
pagination | PaginationState | undefined | Controlled `{ pageIndex, pageSize }`. |
onPaginationChange | (v: Updater<PaginationState>) => void | undefined | Called when the page or page size changes. |
sorting | SortingState | undefined | Controlled sorting, `[{ id, desc }]`. |
onSortingChange | (v: Updater<SortingState>) => void | undefined | Called when the user clicks a column header. |
labels | { noResults?, noResultsSub?, clearSearch? } | undefined | Overrides the strings of the no-results state. |
searchPlaceholder | string | undefined | Placeholder of the search input. |
isLoading | boolean | undefined | Shows a loading indicator in the toolbar. |
isExporting | boolean | undefined | Shows the export button as busy. |
onExport | () => void | undefined | Enables the export button in the toolbar. |
onRowClick | (row: TData) => void | undefined | Called when a row is clicked. |
hasActiveFilters | boolean | undefined | Treats the table as filtered, which suppresses the empty state. |
emptyState | Snippet | undefined | Custom content shown when there is no data and no active filter. |
children | Snippet | undefined | Filter chips such as `DataTableFacetedFilter`, rendered in the toolbar. |
class | string | '' | Extra class names on the wrapper. |
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
| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
table | CaTable<TData> | – | Table instance from `createCaTable`. Required. |
total | number | – | Result count shown in the toolbar. Required. |
globalFilter | string | – | Current search value. Required. |
onGlobalFilterChange | (v: string) => void | – | Called when the user types in the search box. Required. |
searchPlaceholder | string | undefined | Placeholder and accessible name of the search input. |
isLoading | boolean | undefined | Shows a spinner. |
isExporting | boolean | undefined | Disables the export button and shows a spinner in it. |
onExport | () => void | undefined | Renders the export button. It is disabled while `total` is 0. |
children | Snippet | undefined | Filter controls rendered next to the search box. |
The toolbar always includes DataTableColumnToggle on its right side.
DataTablePagination props
| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
table | CaTable<TData> | – | Table instance from `createCaTable`. Required. |
total | number | – | 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.
