Slots

Table header

For injecting HTML before the table, you can use the header slot. See the following example:

<vue-table v-bind="options" :items.sync="items" ref="vueTable">
        <template v-slot:header>
            <div class="mb-4 text-right">
                <button class="btn btn-outline-secondary btn-sm mr-1" @click="importItems()">
                    <i class="fas fa-file-import mr-1"></i> Import
                </button>

                <button class="btn btn-outline-secondary btn-sm" @click="exportItems($refs.vueTable.selectedItems)">
                    <i class="fas fa-file-export mr-1"></i> Export
                </button>
            </div>
        </template>

...

Reset button

For replacing the search button with your custom one, you can use the reset-button. See the next example:

<template v-slot:reset-button="slotProps">
    <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" @click="slotProps.resetFilters">
        <i class="fas fa-sync-alt"></i>
    </button>
</template>

Columns API

Property	Type	Default	Description
headerClasses	String	null	The CSS classes that will be assigned to the table headers.
name	String	""	The column's attribute name.
value	String, Array	null	The column's default value.
slotName	String	""	The name of the slot to be rendered.
rowClasses	String	""	The CSS classes that will be assigned to the table rows.
searchable	Boolean	false	Determines whether the column is searchable.
sortable	Boolean	false	Determines whether the column is sortable.
title	String	""	The column's header title.
visible	Boolean	true	Determines whether the column is visible.

Sorting API

Property	Type	Description
column	String	The name of the column to be sorted. Must be an existing column.
direction	String	The sorting direction. Allowed values: 'asc' or 'desc'.

You can set a default sorting for your table's columns by passing a prop containing an array of objects with the names of the columns and respective sorting directions. Here's an example:

sorting: [
    {
        column: "name",
        direction: "asc"
    },
    {
        column: "created_at",
        direction: "desc"
    }
],

Request payload

Whenever you sort a column, the current sorting information will be attached to the request. For the previous example, this is how the payload will look like:

sorting[0][column]: name
sorting[0][direction]: asc
sorting[1][column]: name
sorting[1][direction]: created_at

Checkable API

Property	Type	Description
display	Boolean	Determines whether the checkboxes are displayed or not.
attribute	String	The item's attribute to be stored on the selectedItems array

Example

checkable: {
    display: true,
    attribute: "id"
},

Filters

Filters slot

You can make use of the filters slot for placing your selectors inline with the search bar.

You can even use v-model to trigger requests and to sync the local storage.

See this example:

<vue-table>
    <template v-slot:filters="slotProps">
        <div class="col-md-3">
            <select class="form-control" v-model="slotProps.filters.city_id">
                <option>Cities</option>
                <option value="1">Abbottton</option>
                <option value="2">Camrenland</option>
                <option value="3">Delfinamouth</option>
                <option value="4">East Benborough</option>
                <option value="5">Feeneymouth</option>
                <option value="6">Sipesburgh</option>
            </select>
        </div>
    </template>
</vue-table>
