djangotables
===============

Djangotables is a simple library for generating html
tables with [Django Framework](https://www.djangoproject.com/) using
model data like django forms.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Djangotables is a simple yet powerful library. A library based on forms
generated by Django, if you are already familiar with django forms it will
be very easy to use django tables, otherwise it will be easy anyway :wink:

I had the idea of developing when I was developing a Dashboard and always had
to write the tables several times in html :sleeping:

## Installation

Simple **djangotables** can be installed with pip::

pip install djangotables

Requirements
----------------

* Python ``3.6; 3.7``
* Django ``2.0; 2.1; 2.2``

These are the officially supported python and package versions. Other versions
will probably work

Usage
----------------

It's very simple to use, you just have to import ``djangotables.tables`` on
your ``tables.py`` file and create your subclass like below.

```python

from djangotables import tables

class UserTable(tables.Table):
first_name = tables.TextField(label="First Name")
last_name = tables.TextField(label="Last Name")

```

So, in your ``vews.py`` file, just import your table class and instantiate it
by passing the queryset

```python

from .tables import UserTable
from django.contrib.auth.models import User

from django.shortcuts import render

def index(request):

table = UserTable( User.objects.all() )

return render( request, "index.html", {
"table": table
})

```

To finish, on your ``index.html`` template file you just have to do this

```html

...


{{ table | safe }}

```

Okay, this is how simple you can use djangotables to improve
your daily development, feel free to contribute and help me
make this little library bigger
