# Datatable View

This package is used in conjunction with the jQuery plugin [DataTables](http://datatables.net/), and supports state-saving detection with [fnSetFilteringDelay](http://datatables.net/plug-ins/api).  The package consists of a class-based view, and a small collection of utilities for rendering table data from models.

Dependencies:

* Python 3.8 or later
* [Django](http://www.djangoproject.com/) >= 2.2
* [dateutil](http://labix.org/python-dateutil) library for flexible, fault-tolerant date parsing.
* [jQuery](https://jquery.com/) >= 2
* [dataTables.js](https://datatables.net/) >= 1.10

# Getting Started

Install the package:

```bash
pip install django-datatable-view
```

Add to ``INSTALLED_APPS`` (so default templates and js can be discovered), and use the ``DatatableView`` like a Django ``ListView``:

```python
# settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'datatableview',
    # ...
]

# views.py
from datatableview.views import DatatableView
class ZeroConfigurationDatatableView(DatatableView):
    model = MyModel
```

Use the ``{{ datatable }}`` provided in the template context to render the table and initialize from server ajax:

```html

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.min.js"
        integrity="sha256-FgpCb/KJQlLNfOu91ta32o/NMZxltwRo8QtmkMRdAu8="
        crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.19/css/jquery.dataTables.min.css">
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf8" src="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.19/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf8" src="{% static 'js/datatableview.js' %}"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
    $(function(){
        datatableview.initialize($('.datatable'));
    });
</script>

{{ datatable }}
```

# Features at a glance

* Support for ``ValuesQuerySet`` execution mode instead of object instances

* Easy related fields
* Automatic search and sort support
* Total control over cell contents (HTML, processing of raw values)

* Support for DT_RowData
* Customization hook for full JSON response object
* Drop-in x-editable support, per-column

# Documentation and Live Demos
Read the module documentation at http://django-datatable-view.readthedocs.org.

A public live demo server is in the works.  For version 0.8, we will continue to keep the live demo site alive at http://django-datatable-view.appspot.com/  Please note that 0.8 does not reflect the current state or direction of the project.

You can run the live demos locally from the included example project, using a few common setup steps.

```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/pivotal-energy-solutions/django-datatable-view.git
$ cd django-datatable-view
$ mkvirtualenv datatableview
(datatableview)$ pip install -r requirements.txt
(datatableview)$ datatableview/tests/example_project/manage.py migrate
(datatableview)$ datatableview/tests/example_project/manage.py loaddata initial_data
(datatableview)$ datatableview/tests/example_project/manage.py runserver
```

The example project is configured to use a local sqlite3 database, and relies on the ``django-datatable-view`` app itself, which is made available in the python path by simply running the project from the distributed directory root.
