ActiveWidgets is a multi-framework UI component library. This package provides **datagrid component** as **HTML5/CustomElement**.

## Installation

Add [@activewidgets/html](https://activewidgets.com/api/packages/html/) to your project dependencies -

```sh
> npm i --save @activewidgets/html
```

## Usage

Import the library into your app to register the custom element tags -

```js
import "@activewidgets/html";
```

The `ax-...` tags will now function as ActiveWidgets components.

```html
Loading...
```

You can then assign properties and event handlers using standard DOM API.

```js
const el = document.querySelector('ax-datagrid');

el.rows = [
{ message: 'Hello, World!' }
];
```

## Data properties

You have to provide [columns](https://activewidgets.com/api/datagrid/columns/) and [rows](https://activewidgets.com/api/datagrid/rows/) properties to the datagrid to show some data. The properties of each `column` object define how the data will be rendered -

- [field](https://activewidgets.com/api/datagrid/columns/#field) - where the cell data comes from (string|function)
- [header](https://activewidgets.com/api/datagrid/columns/#header) - column header (string|object)
- [width](https://activewidgets.com/api/datagrid/columns/#width) - column width (number, in pixels)
- [align](https://activewidgets.com/api/datagrid/columns/#align) - cell text alignment (left|right|center)
- [format](https://activewidgets.com/api/datagrid/columns/#format) - number/date format (string|function)
- [fixed](https://activewidgets.com/api/datagrid/columns/#fixed) - fixed (true/false) for columns on the left or right side

The `style` (string|object) or `className` properties allow to change the styling of the column and cell elements.

```js
const el = document.querySelector('ax-datagrid');

el.columns = [
{ header: 'Code', field: 'customerID', width: 80, style: 'background:#def', fixed: true },
{ header: 'Company Name', field: 'companyName', width: 160 },
{ header: 'Contact', field: 'contactName', width: 120 },
{ header: 'Title', field: 'contactTitle', width: 120 },
{ header: 'Address', field: 'address', width: 120, align: 'right' }
];

el.rows = northwind.customers;
```

[Live example](https://html.activewidgets.com/columns/) | [Source on github](https://github.com/activewidgets/html/tree/master/examples/columns) | [Edit on stackblitz](https://stackblitz.com/github/activewidgets/html/tree/master/examples/columns?file=src/index.js)

## User events

In addition to the standard DOM keyboard and mouse events the datagrid emits composite
[mouse](https://activewidgets.com/api/datagrid/mouse-event/) event which makes it easier to find the elements affected by the user action.

```js
function onMouse({row}){
alert(`row ${row.key} clicked!`);
}

const el = document.querySelector('ax-datagrid');

el.columns = columns;
el.rows = rows;

el.addEventListener('mouse', event => onMouse(event.detail), true);
```

[Live example](https://html.activewidgets.com/events/) | [Source on github](https://github.com/activewidgets/html/tree/master/examples/events) | [Edit on stackblitz](https://stackblitz.com/github/activewidgets/html/tree/master/examples/events?file=src/index.js)

When assigning an event handler, note that the event data is passed in the `event.detail` property (we are using DOM CustomEvent class).

ActiveWidgets custom events do not bubble, so you should always add an event handler at the component itself, not at some parent element.
