# Datagrid
[](https://github.com/bogdan/datagrid/actions)
[](https://app.fossa.io/projects/git%2Bgithub.com%2Fbogdan%2Fdatagrid?ref=badge_shield)
A really mighty and flexible ruby library that generates reports including admin panels, analytics and data representation:
* Filtering
* Columns
* Sort order
* Localization
* Export to CSV
### ORM Support
* ActiveRecord
* Mongoid
* MongoMapper
* Sequel
* Array (slow but possible)
[Create an issue](https://github.com/bogdan/datagrid/issues/new) if you want more.
### Documentation
* [Readme](/Readme.markdown) - this read-me for basic information
* [Wiki](https://github.com/bogdan/datagrid/wiki) - general reference on how to use the gem
* [Rdoc](https://rubydoc.info/gems/datagrid) - API reference
### Live Demo
[Datagrid DEMO application](http://datagrid.herokuapp.com) is available live!
[Demo source code](https://github.com/bogdan/datagrid-demo).
### Example
In order to create a grid:
``` ruby
class UsersGrid
include Datagrid
scope do
User.includes(:group)
end
filter(:category, :enum, select: ["first", "second"])
filter(:disabled, :xboolean)
filter(:group_id, :integer, multiple: true)
filter(:logins_count, :integer, range: true)
filter(:group_name, :string, header: "Group") do |value|
self.joins(:group).where(groups: {name: value})
end
column(:name)
column(:group, order: -> { joins(:group).order(groups: :name) }) do |user|
user.name
end
column(:active, header: "Activated") do |user|
!user.disabled
end
end
```
Basic grid api:
``` ruby
report = UsersGrid.new(
group_id: [1,2],
logins_count: [1, nil],
category: "first",
order: :group,
descending: true
)
report.assets # => Array of User instances:
# SELECT * FROM users WHERE users.group_id in (1,2) AND users.logins_count >= 1 AND users.category = 'first' ORDER BY groups.name DESC
report.header # => ["Name", "Group", "Activated"]
report.rows # => [
# ["Steve", "Spammers", false],
# [ "John", "Spoilers", false],
# ["Berry", "Good people", true]
# ]
report.data # => [ header, *rows]
report.to_csv # => Yes, it is
```
### Grid DSL
In order to create a report, you need to define:
* scope of objects to look through
* filters that will be used to filter data
* columns that should be displayed and sortable (if possible)
### Scope
Default scope of objects to filter and display.
In common case it is `ActiveRecord::Base` (or any other supported ORM) subclass with some generic scopes like:
``` ruby
scope do
User.includes(:group)
end
```
[More about scope](https://github.com/bogdan/datagrid/wiki/Scope)
### Filters
Each filter definition consists of:
* name of the filter
* type that will be used for value typecast
* conditions block that applies to defined scope
* additional options
Datagrid supports different type of filters including:
* text
* integer
* float
* date
* datetime
* boolean
* xboolean - the select of "yes", "no" and any
* enum - selection of the given values
* string
* dynamic - build dynamic SQL condition
[More about filters](https://github.com/bogdan/datagrid/wiki/Filters)
### Columns
Each column is represented by name and code block to calculate the value.
``` ruby
column(:activated, header: "Active", order: "activated", after: :name) do
self.activated?
end
```
Some formatting options are also available.
Each column is sortable.

### Front end
### Using Generator
Datagrid has a builtin generator:
```
rails g datagrid:scaffold skills
```
That gives you some code to play with out of the box:
```
create app/grids/skills_grid.rb
create app/controllers/skills_controller.rb
create app/views/skills/index.html.erb
route resources :skills
insert app/assets/stylesheet/application.css
```
### Customize Built-in partials
In order to get a control on datagrid built-in partials run:
``` sh
rake datagrid:copy_partials
```
