# Tables
> For displaying tabular data. `<b-table>` supports pagination, filtering, sorting,
custom rendering, events, and asynchronous data.
**Example: Basic usage**
```html
<template>
<b-table striped hover :items="items"></b-table>
</template>
<script>
const items = [
{ isActive: true, age: 40, first_name: 'Dickerson', last_name: 'Macdonald' },
{ isActive: false, age: 21, first_name: 'Larsen', last_name: 'Shaw' },
{ isActive: false, age: 89, first_name: 'Geneva', last_name: 'Wilson' },
{ isActive: true, age: 38, first_name: 'Jami', last_name: 'Carney' }
]
export default {
data () {
return {
items: items
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- table-basic-1.vue -->
```
## Items (record data)
`items` is the table data in array format, where each record (row) data are
keyed objects. Example format:
```js
[
{ age: 32, first_name: 'Cyndi' },
{ age: 27, first_name: 'Havij' },
{ age: 42, first_name: 'Robert' }
]
```
`<b-table>` automatically samples the first row to extract field names (they keys in the
record data). Field names are automatically "humanized" by converting `kebab-case`, `snake_case`,
and `camelCase` to individual words and capitalizes each word. Example conversions:
- `first_name` becomes `First Name`
- `last-name` becomes `Last Name`
- `age` becoms `Age`
- `YEAR` remains `YEAR`
- `isActive` becomes `Is Active`
These titles wil be displayed in the table header, in the order they appear in the
**first** record of data. See the [**Fields**](#fields-column-definitions-) section
below for customizing how field headings appear.
>**Note:** _Field order is not guaranteed. Fields will typically appear in the order they
were defined in the first row, but this may not always be the case depending on the version
of browser in use. See section [**Fields (column definitions)**](#fields-column-definitions-)
below to see how to guarantee the order of fields._
Record data may also have additional special reserved name keys for colorizing
rows and individual cells (variants), and for triggering additional row detail. The supported
optional item record modifier properties (make sure your field keys do not conflict with
these names):
| Property | Type | Description
| ---------| ---- | -----------
| `_cellVariants` | Object | Bootstrap contextual state applied to individual cells. Keyed by field (Supported values: `active`, `success`, `info`, `warning`, `danger`)
| `_rowVariant` | String | Bootstrap contextual state applied to the entire row (Supported values: `active`, `success`, `info`, `warning`, `danger`)
| `_showDetails` | Boolean | Used to trigger the display of the `row-details` scoped slot. See section [Row details support](#row-details-support) below for additional information
**Example: Using variants for table cells**
```html
<template>
<b-table hover :items="items"></b-table>
</template>
<script>
const items = [
{ isActive: true, age: 40, first_name: 'Dickerson', last_name: 'Macdonald' },
{ isActive: false, age: 21, first_name: 'Larsen', last_name: 'Shaw' },
{
isActive: false,
age: 89,
first_name: 'Geneva',
last_name: 'Wilson',
_rowVariant: 'danger'
},
{
isActive: true,
age: 40,
first_name: 'Thor',
last_name: 'Macdonald',
_cellVariants: { isActive: 'success', age: 'info', first_name: 'warning' }
},
{ isActive: false, age: 29, first_name: 'Dick', last_name: 'Dunlap' }
]
export default {
data () {
return {
items: items
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- table-variants-1.vue -->
```
`items` can also be a reference to a *provider* function, which returns an
`Array` of items data. Provider functions can also be asynchronous:
- By returning `null` (or `undefined`) and calling a callback, when the data is
ready, with the data array as the only argument to the callback,
- By returning a `Promise` that resolves to an array.
See the [**"Using Items Provider functions"**](#using-items-provider-functions)
section below for more details.
## Fields (column definitions)
The `fields` prop is used to customize the table columns headings,
and in which order the columns of data are displayed. The field object keys
(i.e. `age` or `first_name` as shown below) are used to extract the value from
each item (record) row, and to provide additional fetures such as enabling
[**sorting**](#sorting) on the column, etc.
Fields can be provided as a _simple array_, an _array of objects_, or an
_object_. **Internally the fields data will be normalized into the _array of
objects_ format**. Events or slots that include the column `field` data will be
in the normalized field object format (array of objects for `fields`, or an
object for an individual `field`).
### Fields as a simple array
Fields can be a simple array, for defining the order of the columns, and
which columns to display (order is guaranteed):
**Example: Using `array` fields definition**
```html
<template>
<b-table striped hover :items="items" :fields="fields"></b-table>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
// Note 'isActive' is left out and will not appear in the rendered table
fields: [ 'first_name', 'last_name', 'age' ],
items: [
{ isActive: true, age: 40, first_name: 'Dickerson', last_name: 'Macdonald' },
{ isActive: false, age: 21, first_name: 'Larsen', last_name: 'Shaw' },
{ isActive: false, age: 89, first_name: 'Geneva', last_name: 'Wilson' },
{ isActive: true, age: 38, first_name: 'Jami', last_name: 'Carney' }
]
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- table-fields-array.vue -->
```
### Fields as an array of objects
Fields can be a an array of objects, providing additional control over the fields (such
as sorting, formatting, etc). Only columns (keys) that appear in the fields array will
be shown (order is guaranteed):
**Example: Using array of objects fields definition**
```html
<template>
<b-table striped hover :items="items" :fields="fields"></b-table>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
// Note 'isActive' is left out and will not appear in the rendered table
fields: [
{
key: 'last_name',
sortable: true
},
{
key: 'first_name',
sortable: false
},
{
key: 'age',
label: 'Person age',
sortable: true,
// Variant applies to the whole column, including the header and footer
variant: 'danger'
}
],
items: [
{ isActive: true, age: 40, first_name: 'Dickerson', last_name: 'Macdonald' },
{ isActive: false, age: 21, first_name: 'Larsen', last_name: 'Shaw' },
{ isActive: false, age: 89, first_name: 'Geneva', last_name: 'Wilson' },
{ isActive: true, age: 38, first_name: 'Jami', last_name: 'Carney' }
]
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- table-fields-array-of-objects.vue -->
```
### Fields as an object
Also, fields can be a an object providing similar control over the fields as the
_array of objects_ above does. Only columns listed in the fields object will be shown.
The order of the fields will typically be in the order they were defined in the object,
although **order is not guaranteed**.
**Example: Using object fields definition**
```html
<template>
<b-table striped hover :items="items" :fields="fields"></b-table>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
// Note 'isActive' is left out and will not appear in the rendered table
fields: {
last_name: {
label: 'Person last name',
sortable: true
},
first_name: {
label: 'Person first name',
sortable: false
},
foo: {
// This key overrides `foo`!
key: 'age',
label: 'Person age',
sortable: true
},
city: {
key: 'address.city'
},
'address.country': {
label: 'Country'
}
},
items: [
{ isActive: true, age: 40, first_name: 'Dickerson', last_name: 'Macdonald', address: { country: 'USA', city: 'New York' } },
{ isActive: false, age: 21, first_name: 'Larsen', last_name: 'Shaw', address: { country: 'Canada', city: 'Toronto' }},
{ isActive: false, age: 89, first_name: 'Geneva', last_name: 'Wilson', address: { country: 'Australia', city: 'Sydney' } },
{ isActive: true, age: 38, first_name: 'Jami', last_name: 'Carney', address: { country: 'England', city: 'London' } }
]
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- table-fields-object.vue -->
```
>**Notes:**
>- _if a `key` property is defined in the field definition, it will take precedence over the key used to define the field._
>- _It is possible to define `key` as column's object property, but currently, sorting of these columns **not supported**_
### Field definition reference
The following field properties are recognized:
| Property | Type | Description
| ---------| ---- | -----------
| `key` | String | The key for selecting data from the record in the items array. Required when passing the props `fields` an array of objects.
| `label` | String | Appears in the columns table header (and footer if `foot-clone` is set). Defaults to the field's key (in humanized format) if not provided. It's possible to use empty labels by assigning an empty string `""`
| `class` | String or Array | Class name (or array of class names) to add to `<th>` **and** `<td>` in the column.
| `formatter` | String or Function | A formatter callback function, can be used instead of (or in conjunction with) slots for real table fields (i.e. fields, that have corresponding data at items array). Refer to [**Custom Data Rendering**](#custom-data-rendering) for more details.
| `sortable` | Boolean | Enable sorting on this column. Refer to the [**Sorting**](#sorting) Section for more details.
| `tdClass` | String or Array | Class name (or array of class names) to add to `<tbody>` data `<td>` cells in the column.
| `thClass` | String or Array | Class name (or array of class names) to add to `<thead>`/`<tfoot>` heading `<th>` cell.
| `thStyle` | Object | JavaScript object representing CSS styles you would like to apply to the table `<thead>`/`<tfoot>` field `<th>`.
| `variant` | String | Apply contextual class to all the `<th>` **and** `<td>` in the column - `active`, `success`, `info`, `warning`, `danger` (these variants map to classes `thead-${variant}`, `table-${variant}`, or `bg-${variant}` accordingly).
| `tdAttr` | Object | JavaScript object representing additional attributes to apply to the `<tbody>` field `td` cell.
| `isRowHeader` | Boolean | When set to `true`, the field's item data cell will be rendered with `<th>` rather than the default of `<td>`.
>**Notes:**
> - _Field properties, if not present, default to `null` (falsey) unless otherwise stated above._
> - _`thClass` and `tdClass` will not work with classes that are defined in scoped CSS_
> - _For information on the syntax supported by `thStyle`, see
[Class and Style Bindings](https://vuejs.org/v2/guide/class-and-style.html#Binding-Inline-Styles)
in the Vue.js guide._
> - _Any additional properties added to the field objects will be left intact - so you can access
them via the named scoped slots for custom data, header, and footer rendering._
For information and usage about scoped slots and formatters, refer to
the [**Custom Data Rendering**](#custom-data-rendering) section below.
Feel free to mix and match simple array and object array together:
```js
fields: [
{ key: 'first_name', label: 'First' },
{ key: 'last_name', label: 'Last' },
'age',
'sex'
]
```
## Table style options
`<b-table>` provides several props to alter the style of the table:
| prop | Type | Description
| ---- | ---- | -----------
| `striped` | Boolean | Add zebra-striping to the table rows within the `<tbody>`
| `bordered` | Boolean | For borders on all sides of the table and cells.
| `outlined` | Boolean | For a thin border on all sides of the table. Has no effect is `bordered` is set.
| `small` | Boolean | To make tables more compact by cutting cell padding in half.
| `hover` | Boolean | To enable a hover highlighting state on table rows within a `<tbody>`
| `dark` | Boolean | Invert the colors — with light text on dark backgrounds (equivalent to Bootstrap V4 class `.table-dark`)
| `fixed` | Boolean | Generate a table with equal fixed-width columns (`table-layout: fixed`)
| `foot-clone` | Boolean | Turns on the table footer, and defaults with the same contents a the table header
| `responsive` | Boolean or String | Generate a responsive table to make it scroll horizontally. Set to `true` for an always responsive table, or set it to one of the breakpoints `'sm'`, `'md'`, `'lg'`, or `'xl'` to make the table responsive (horizontally scroll) only on screens smaller than the breakpoint. See [**Responsive tables**](#responsive-tables) below for details.
| `stacked` | Boolean or String | Generate a responsive stacked table. Set to `true` for an always stacked table, or set it to one of the breakpoints `'sm'`, `'md'`, `'lg'`, or `'xl'` to make the table visually stacked only on screens smaller than the breakpoint. See [**Stacked tables**](#stacked-tables) below for details.
| `head-variant` | String | Use `'light'` or `'dark'` to make table header appear light or dark gray, respectively
| `foot-variant` | String | Use `'light'` or `'dark'` to make table footer appear light or dark gray, respectively. If not set, `head-variant` will be used. Has no effect if `foot-clone` is not set
**Example: Basic table styles**
```html
<template>
<div>
<b-form-checkbox v-model="striped">Striped</b-form-checkbox>
<b-form-checkbox v-model="bordered">Bordered</b-form-checkbox>
<b-form-checkbox v-model="outlined">Outlined</b-form-checkbox>
<b-form-checkbox v-model="small">Small</b-form-checkbox>
<b-form-checkbox v-model="hover">Hover</b-form-checkbox>
<b-form-checkbox v-model="dark">Dark</b-form-checkbox>
<b-form-checkbox v-model="fixed">Fixed</b-form-checkbox>
<b-form-checkbox v-model="footClone">Foot Clone</b-form-checkbox>
<b-table :striped="striped"
:bordered="bordered"
:outlined="outlined"
:small="small"
:hover="hover"
:dark="dark"
:fixed="fixed"
:foot-clone="footClone"
:items="items"
:fields="fields">
</b-table>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
fields: [ 'first_name', 'last_name', 'age' ],
items: [
{ age: 40, first_name: 'Dickerson', last_name: 'Macdonald' },
{ age: 21, first_name: 'Larsen', last_name: 'Shaw' },
{ age: 89, first_name: 'Geneva', last_name: 'Wilson' }
],
striped: false,
bordered: false,
outlined: false,
small: false,
hover: false,
dark: false,
fixed: false,
footClone: false
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- table-bordered.vue -->
```
## Responsive tables
Responsive tables allow tables to be scrolled horizontally with ease. Make any table
responsive across all viewports by setting the prop `responsive` to `true`. Or, pick a
maximum breakpoint with which to have a responsive table up to by setting the prop
`responsive` to one of the breakpoint values: `sm`, `md`, `lg`, or `xl`.
**Example: Always responsive table**
```html
<template>
<b-table responsive :items="items"></b-table>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
items: [
{
'heading 1': 'table cell',
'heading 2': 'table cell',
'heading 3': 'table cell',
'heading 4': 'table cell',
'heading 5': 'table cell',
'heading 6': 'table cell',
'heading 7': 'table cell',
'heading 8': 'table cell',
'heading 9': 'table cell',
'heading 10': 'table cell'
},
{
'heading 1': 'table cell',
'heading 2': 'table cell',
'heading 3': 'table cell',
'heading 4': 'table cell',
'heading 5': 'table cell',
'heading 6': 'table cell',
'heading 7': 'table cell',
'heading 8': 'table cell',
'heading 9': 'table cell',
'heading 10': 'table cell'
},
{
'heading 1': 'table cell',
'heading 2': 'table cell',
'heading 3': 'table cell',
'heading 4': 'table cell',
'heading 5': 'table cell',
'heading 6': 'table cell',
'heading 7': 'table cell',
'heading 8': 'table cell',
'heading 9': 'table cell',
'heading 10': 'table cell'
}
]
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- table-responsive.vue -->
```
>**Responsive table notes:**
> - _Possible vertical clipping/truncation_. Responsive tables make use of `overflow-y: hidden`, which clips off any content that goes beyond the bottom or top edges of the table. In particular, this can clip off dropdown menus and other third-party widgets.
> - When in responsive mode the table will lose it's width of 100%. This is a known issue with bootstrap V4 css and placing the `table-responsive` class on the `<table>` element as recommended by Bootstrap.
## Stacked tables
An alternative to responsive tables, Bootstrap-Vue includes the stacked table option, which
allow tables to be rendered in a visually stacked format. Make any table stacked across
_all viewports_ by setting the prop `stacked` to `true`. Or, alternatively, set a breakpoint
at which the table will return to normal table format by setting the prop `stacked` to one
of the breakpoint values `'sm'`, `'md'`, `'lg'`, or `'xl'`.
Column header labels will be rendered to the left of each field value using a CSS
`::before` pseudo element, with a width of 40%.
The prop `stacked` takes precedence over the `responsive` prop.
**Example: Always stacked table**
```html
<template>
<b-table stacked :items="items"></b-table>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
items: [
{ age: 40, first_name: 'Dickerson', last_name: 'Macdonald' },
{ age: 21, first_name: 'Larsen', last_name: 'Shaw' },
{ age: 89, first_name: 'Geneva', last_name: 'Wilson' }
]
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- table-stacked.vue -->
```
**Note: When the table is visually stacked:**
- The table header (and table footer) will be hidden.
- Custom rendred header slots will not be shown, rather, the fields' `label` will be used.
- The table **cannot** be sorted by clicking the rendered field labels. You will need to provide an external control to select the field to sort by and the sort direction. See the [**Sorting**](#sorting) section below for sorting control information, as well as the [**complete example**](#complete-example) at the bottom of this page for an example of controlling sorting via the use of form controls.
- The slots `top-row` and `bottom-row` will be hidden when visually stacked.
- The table caption, if provided, will always appear at the top of the table when visually stacked.
- In an always stacked table, the table header and footer, and the fixed top and bottom row slots will not be rendered.
## Table caption
Add an optional caption to your table via the prop `caption` or the named
slot `table-caption` (the slot takes precedence over the prop). The default
Bootstrap V4 styling places the caption at the bottom of the table:
```html
<template>
<b-table :items="items" :fields="fields">
<template slot="table-caption">
This is a table caption.
</template>
</b-table>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
fields: [ 'first_name', 'last_name', 'age' ],
items: [
{ age: 40, first_name: 'Dickerson', last_name: 'Macdonald' },
{ age: 21, first_name: 'Larsen', last_name: 'Shaw' },
{ age: 89, first_name: 'Geneva', last_name: 'Wilson' }
]
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- table-caption.vue -->
```
You can have the caption placed at the top of the table by setting the
`caption-top` prop to `true`:
```html
<template>
<b-table :items="items" :fields="fields" caption-top>
<template slot="table-caption">
This is a table caption at the top.
</template>
</b-table>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
fields: [ 'first_name', 'last_name', 'age' ],
items: [
{ age: 40, first_name: 'Dickerson', last_name: 'Macdonald' },
{ age: 21, first_name: 'Larsen', last_name: 'Shaw' },
{ age: 89, first_name: 'Geneva', last_name: 'Wilson' }
]
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- table-caption-top.vue -->
```
You can also use [custom CSS](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/caption-side)
to control the caption positioning.
## Table colgroup
Use the named slot `table-colgroup` to specify `<colgroup>` and `<col>` elements
for optional grouping and styling of table columns. Note the styles available via `<col>`
elements are limited. Refer to [MDN](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/colgroup)
for details and usage of `<colgroup>`
## Custom Data Rendering
Custom rendering for each data field in a row is possible using either
[scoped slots](http://vuejs.org/v2/guide/components.html#Scoped-Slots)
or formatter callback function.
### Scoped Field Slots
Scoped slots give you greater control over how the record data appears.
If you want to add an extra field which does not exist in the records,
just add it to the `fields` array, And then reference the field(s) in the scoped
slot(s).
**Example: Custom data rendering with scoped slots**
```html
<template>
<b-table :fields="fields" :items="items">
<!-- A virtual column -->
<template slot="index" slot-scope="data">
{{data.index + 1}}
</template>
<!-- A custom formatted column -->
<template slot="name" slot-scope="data">
{{data.value.first}} {{data.value.last}}
</template>
<!-- A virtual composite column -->
<template slot="nameage" slot-scope="data">
{{data.item.name.first}} is {{data.item.age}} years old
</template>
</b-table>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
fields: [
// A virtual column that doesn't exist in items
'index',
// A column that needs custom formatting
{ key: 'name', label: 'Full Name' },
// A regular column
'age',
// A regular column
'sex',
// A virtual column made up from two fields
{ key: 'nameage', label: 'First name and age' }
],
items: [
{ name: { first: 'John', last: 'Doe' }, sex: 'Male', age: 42 },
{ name: { first: 'Jane', last: 'Doe' }, sex: 'Female', age: 36 },
{ name: { first: 'Rubin', last: 'Kincade' }, sex: 'Male', age: 73 },
{ name: { first: 'Shirley', last: 'Partridge' }, sex: 'Female', age: 62 }
]
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- table-data-slots.vue -->
```
The slot's scope variable (`data` in the above sample) will have the following properties:
| Property | Type | Description
| -------- | ---- | -----------
| `index` | Number | The row number (indexed from zero) relative to the displayed rows
| `item` | Object | The entire raw record data (i.e. `items[index]`) for this row (before any formatter is applied)
| `value` | Any | The value for this key in the record (`null` or `undefined` if a virtual column), or the output of the field's `formatter` function (see below for for information on field `formatter` callback functions)
| `unformatted` | Any | The raw value for this key in the item record (`null` or `undefined` if a virtual column), before being passed to the field's `formatter` function
| `detailsShowing` | Boolean | Will be `true` if the row's `row-details` scoped slot is visible. See section [**Row details support**](#row-details-support) below for additional information
| `toggleDetails` | Function | Can be called to toggle the visibility of the rows `row-details` scoped slot. See section [**Row details support**](#row-details-support) below for additional information
>**Notes:**
>- _`index` will not always be the actual row's index number, as it is
computed after pagination and filtering have been applied to the original
table data. The `index` value will refer to the **displayed row number**. This
number will align with the indexes from the optional `v-model` bound variable._
>- _When placing inputs, buttons, selects or links within a data cell scoped slot,
be sure to add a `@click.stop` (or `@click.native.stop` if needed) handler (which can
be empty) to prevent the click on the input, button, select, or link, from triggering
the `row-clicked` event:_
```html
<template slot="actions" slot-scope="cell">
<!-- We use click.stop here to prevent a 'row-clicked' event from also happening -->
<b-btn size="sm" @click.stop="details(cell.item,cell.index,$event.target)">Details</b-btn>
</template>
```
#### Displaying raw HTML
By default `b-table` escapes HTML tags in items, if you need to display raw HTML code in `b-table`, you should use
`v-html` prop in scoped field slot
```html
<template>
<b-table :items="items">
<span slot="html" slot-scope="data" v-html="data.value">
</span>
</b-table>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
items: [
{
text: 'This is <i>escaped</i> content',
html: 'This is <i>raw <strong>HTML</strong></i> <span style="color:red">content</span>'
}
]
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- table-html-data-slots.vue -->
```
### Formatter callback
One more option to customize field output is to use formatter callback function.
To enable this field's property `formatter` is used. Value of this property may be
String or function reference. In case of a String value, function must be defined at
parent component's methods. Providing formatter as `Function`, it must be declared at
global scope (window or as global mixin at Vue).
Callback function accepts three arguments - `value`, `key`, and `item`, and should
return the formatted value as a string (basic HTML is supported)
**Example: Custom data rendering with formatter callback function**
```html
<template>
<b-table :fields="fields" :items="items">
<template slot="name" slot-scope="data">
<a :href="`#${data.value.replace(/[^a-z]+/i,'-').toLowerCase()}`">
{{data.value}}
</a>
</template>
</b-table>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
fields: [
{
// A column that needs custom formatting,
// calling formatter 'fullName' in this app
key: 'name',
label: 'Full Name',
formatter: 'fullName'
},
// A regular column
'age',
{
// A regular column with custom formatter
key: 'sex',
formatter: (value) => { return value.charAt(0).toUpperCase() }
},
{
// A virtual column with custom formatter
key: 'birthYear',
label: 'Calculated Birth Year',
formatter: (value, key, item) => {
return (new Date()).getFullYear() - item.age
}
}
],
items: [
{ name: { first: 'John', last: 'Doe' }, sex: 'Male', age: 42 },

## Header/Footer custom rendering via scoped slots
It is also possible to provide custom rendering for the tables `thead` and
`tfoot` elements. Note by default the table footer is not rendered unless
`foot-clone` is set to `true`.
Scoped slots for the header and footer cells uses a special naming
convention of `HEAD_<fieldkey>` and `FOOT_<fieldkey>` respectively. if a `FOOT_`
slot for a field is not provided, but a `HEAD_` slot is provided, then
the footer will use the `HEAD_` slot content.
```html
<b-table :fields="fields" :items="items" foot-clone>
<template slot="name" slot-scope="data">
<!-- A custom formatted data column cell -->
{{data.value.first}} {{data.value.last}}
</template>
<template slot="HEAD_name" slot-scope="data">
<!-- A custom formatted header cell for field 'name' -->
<em>{{data.label}}</em>
</template>
<template slot="FOOT_name" slot-scope="data">
<!-- A custom formatted footer cell for field 'name' -->
<strong>{{data.label}}</strong>
</template>
</b-table>
```
The slot's scope variable (`data` in the above example) will have the following properties:
| Property | Type | Description
| -------- | ---- | -----------
| `column` | String | The fields's `key` value
| `field` | Object | the field's object (from the `fields` prop)
| `label` | String | The fields label value (also available as `data.field.label`)
When placing inputs, buttons, selects or links within a `HEAD_` or `FOOT_` slot,
be sure to add a `@click.stop` (or `@click.native.stop`) handler (which can be empty) to prevent the
click on the input, button, select, or link, from triggering a change in sorting,
or a `head-clicked` event.
```html
<template slot="HEAD_actions" slot-scope="foo">
<!-- We use click.stop here to prevent 'sort-changed' or 'head-clicked' events -->
<input @click.stop type="checkbox" :value="foo.column" v-model="selected">
<!-- We use click.native.stop here to prevent 'sort-changed' or 'head-clicked' events -->
<b-form-checkbox @click.native.stop :value="foo.column" v-model="selected">
</template>
```
## Row details support
If you would optionally like to display additional record information (such as
columns not specified in the fields definition array), you can use the scoped slot
`row-details`, in combination with the special item record Boolean property
`_showDetails`.
If the record has it's `_showDetails` property set to `true`, **and** a `row-details`
scoped slot exists, a new row will be shown just below the item, with the rendered
contents of the `row-details` scoped slot.
In the scoped field slot, you can toggle the visibility of the row's `row-details`
scoped slot by calling the `toggleDetails` function passed to the field's scoped slot
variable. You can use the scoped fields slot variable `detailsShowing` to determine
the visibility of the `row-details` slot.
>**Note:** _If manipulating the `_showDetails` property directly on the item data (i.e.
not via the `toggleDetails` function reference), the `_showDetails` propertly **must**
exist in the items data for proper reactive detection of changes to it's value. Read more about
[Vue's reactivity limitations](https://vuejs.org/v2/guide/reactivity.html#Change-Detection-Caveats)._
Available `row-details` scoped variable properties:
| Property | Type | Description
| -------- | ---- | -----------
| `item` | Object | The entire row record data object
| `index` | Number | The current visible row number
| `fields` | Array | The normalized fields definition array (in the _array of objects_ format)
| `toggleDetails` | Function | Function to toggle visibility of the row's details slot
In the following example, we show two methods of toggling the visibility of the details:
one via a button, and one via a checkbox. We also have the third row row details defaulting
to have details initially showing.
```html
<template>
<b-table :items="items" :fields="fields">
<template slot="show_details" slot-scope="row">
<!-- we use @click.stop here to prevent emitting of a 'row-clicked' event -->
<b-button size="sm" @click.stop="row.toggleDetails" class="mr-2">
{{ row.detailsShowing ? 'Hide' : 'Show'}} Details
</b-button>
<!-- In some circumstances you may need to use @click.native.stop instead -->
<!-- As `row.showDetails` is one-way, we call the toggleDetails function on @change -->
<b-form-checkbox @click.native.stop @change="row.toggleDetails" v-model="row.detailsShowing">
Details via check
</b-form-checkbox>
</template>
<template slot="row-details" slot-scope="row">
<b-card>
<b-row class="mb-2">
<b-col sm="3" class="text-sm-right"><b>Age:</b></b-col>
<b-col>{{ row.item.age }}</b-col>
</b-row>
<b-row class="mb-2">
<b-col sm="3" class="text-sm-right"><b>Is Active:</b></b-col>
<b-col>{{ row.item.isActive }}</b-col>
</b-row>
<b-button size="sm" @click="row.toggleDetails">Hide Details</b-button>
</b-card>
</template>
</b-table>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
fields: [ 'first_name', 'last_name', 'show_details' ],
items: [
{ isActive: true, age: 40, first_name: 'Dickerson', last_name: 'Macdonald' },
{ isActive: false, age: 21, first_name: 'Larsen', last_name: 'Shaw' },
{ isActive: false, age: 89, first_name: 'Geneva', last_name: 'Wilson', _showDetails: true },
{ isActive: true, age: 38, first_name: 'Jami', last_name: 'Carney' }
]
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- table-details.vue -->
```
## Sorting
As mentioned in the [**Fields**](#fields-column-definitions-) section above,
you can make columns sortable. Clicking on a sortable column header will sort the
column in ascending direction (smallest first), while clicking on it again will switch the direction
of sorting. Clicking on a non-sortable column will clear the sorting.
You can control which column is pre-sorted and the order of sorting (ascending or
descending). To pre-specify the column to be sorted, set the `sort-by` prop to
the field's key. Set the sort direction by setting `sort-desc` to either `true`
(for descending) or `false` (for ascending, the default).
The props `sort-by` and `sort-desc` can be turned into _two-way_ (syncable) props by
adding the `.sync` modifier. Your bound variables will then be updated accordingly
based on the current sort critera. See the
[Vue docs](http://vuejs.org/v2/guide/components.html#sync-Modifier) for details
on the `.sync` prop modifier
>**Note:** _The built-in `sort-compare` routine **cannot** sort virtual columns, nor
sort based on the custom rendering of the field data (formatter functions and/or
scoped slots are used only for presentation only, and do not affect the underlying data).
Refer to the [**Sort-compare routine**](#sort-compare-routine) section below for details on
sorting by presentational data._
```html
<template>
<div>
<b-table :sort-by.sync="sortBy"
:sort-desc.sync="sortDesc"
:items="items"
:fields="fields">
</b-table>
<p>
Sorting By: <b>{{ sortBy }}</b>,
Sort Direction: <b>{{ sortDesc ? 'Descending' : 'Ascending' }}</b>
</p>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
sortBy: 'age',
sortDesc: false,
fields: [
{ key: 'last_name', sortable: true },
{ key: 'first_name', sortable: true },
{ key: 'age', sortable: true },
{ key: 'isActive', sortable: false }
],
items: [
{ isActive: true, age: 40, first_name: 'Dickerson', last_name: 'Macdonald' },
{ isActive: false, age: 21, first_name: 'Larsen', last_name: 'Shaw' },
{ isActive: false, age: 89, first_name: 'Geneva', last_name: 'Wilson' },
{ isActive: true, age: 38, first_name: 'Jami', last_name: 'Carney' }
]
}
}
}
</script>
<!-- table-sorting.vue -->
```
### Sort-Compare routine
The built-in default `sort-compare` function sorts the specified field `key` based
on the data in the underlying record object (not by the formatted value). The field
value is first stringified if it is an object, and then sorted.
The default `sort-compare` routine **cannot** sort virtual columns, nor sort based
on the custom rendering of the field data (formatter functions and/or scoped slots
are used only for presentation). For this reason, you can provide your own
custom sort compare routine by passing a function reference to the prop `sort-compare`.
The `sort-compare` routine is passed three arguments. The first two arguments
(`a` and `b`) are the record objects for the rows being compared, and the third
argument is the field `key` being sorted on (`sortBy`). The routine should return
either `-1`, `0`, or `1` based on the result of the comparing of the two records.
If the routine returns `null`, then the default sort-compare routine will be used.
You can use this feature (i.e. returning `null`) to have your custom sort-compare
routine handle only certain fields (keys).
The default sort-compare routine works as follows:
```js
if (typeof a[key] === 'number' && typeof b[key] === 'number') {
// If both compared fields are native numbers
return a[key] < b[key] ? -1 : (a[key] > b[key] ? 1 : 0)
} else {
// Stringify the field data and use String.localeCompare
return toString(a[key]).localeCompare(toString(b[key]), undefined, {
numeric: true
})
}
```
### Disable local sorting
If you want to handle sorting entirely in your app, you can disable the local
sorting in `<b-table>` bu setting the prop `no-local-sorting` to true, while
still maintaining the sortable header functionality.
You can use the syncable props `sort-by.sync` and `sort-desc.sync` to detect
changes in sorting column and direction.
Also, When a sortable column header (or footer) is clicked, the event `sort-changed`
will be emitted with a single argument containing the context object of `<b-table>`.
See the [Detection of sorting change](#detection-of-sorting-change) section below
for details about the sort-changed event and the context object.
## Filtering
Filtering, when used, is applied to the **original items** array data, and hence it is not
possible to filter data based on custom rendering of virtual columns. The items row data
is stringified and the filter searches that stringified data (excluding any properties
that begin with an underscore `_`).
The `filter` prop value can be a string, a `RegExp` or a `function` reference. If
a function is provided, the first argument is the original item record data object. The
function should return `true` if the record matches your criteria or `false` if
the record is to be filtered out.
When local filtering is applied, and the resultant number of items change, `<b-table>`
will emit the `filtered` event, passing a single argument which is the complete list of
items passing the filter routine. **Treat this argument as read-only.**
Setting the prop `filter` to null or an empty string will disable local items filtering.
See the [Complete Example](#complete-example) below for an example of using the
`filter` feature.
## Pagination
`<b-table>` supports built in pagination of item data. You can control how many
rows are displayed at a time by setting the `per-page` prop to the maximum
number of rows you would like displayed, and use the `current-page` prop
to specify which page to display (starting from page `1`). If you set `current-page`
to a value larger than the computed number of pages, then no rows will be shown.
You can use the [`<b-pagination>`](/docs/components/pagination) component in
conjunction with `<b-table>` for providing control over pagination.
Setting `per-page` to `0` (default) will disable the local items pagination feature.
## `v-model` binding
If you bind a variable to the `v-model` prop, the contents of this variable will
be the currently displayed item records (zero based index, up to `page-size` - 1).
This variable (the `value` prop) should usually be treated as readonly.
The records within the v-model are a filtered/paginated shallow copy of `items`, and
hence any changes to a record's properties in the v-model will be reflected in
the original `items` array (except when `items` is set to a provider function).
Deleting a record from the v-model will **not** remove the record from the
original items array.
>**Note:** _Do not bind any value directly to the `value` prop. Use the `v-model` binding._
## Using Items Provider Functions
As mentioned under the [**Items**](#items-record-data-) prop section, it is possible to use a function to provide
the row data (items), by specifying a function reference via the `items` prop.
The provider function is called with the following signature:
```js
provider(ctx, [callback])
```
The `ctx` is the context object associated with the table state, and contains the
following five properties:
| Property | Type | Description
| -------- | ---- | -----------
| `currentPage` | Number | The current page number (starting from 1, the value of the `current-page` prop)
| `perPage` | Number | The maximum number of rows per page to display (the value of the `per-page` prop)
| `filter` | String or RegExp or Function | the value of the `Filter` prop
| `sortBy` | String | The current column key being sorted, or `null` if not sorting
| `sortDesc` | Boolean | The current sort direction (`true` for descending, `false` for ascending)
The second argument `callback` is an optional parameter for when using the callback asynchronous method.
**Example: returning an array of data (synchronous):**
```js
function myProvider (ctx) {
let items = []
// perform any items processing needed
// Must return an array
return items || []
}
```
**Example: Using callback to return data (asynchronous):**
```js
function myProvider (ctx, callback) {
let params = '?page=' + ctx.currentPage + '&size=' + ctx.perPage
this.fetchData('/some/url' + params).then((data) => {
// Pluck the array of items off our axios response
let items = data.items
// Provide the array of items to the callabck
callback(items)
}).catch(error => {
callback([])
})
// Must return null or undefined to signal b-table that callback is being used
return null
}
```
**Example: Using a Promise to return data (asynchronous):**
```js
function myProvider (ctx) {
let promise = axios.get('/some/url?page=' + ctx.currentPage + '&size=' + ctx.perPage)
// Must return a promise that resolves to an array of items
return promise.then((data) => {
// Pluck the array of items off our axios response
let items = data.items
// Must return an array of items or an empty array if an error occurred
return(items || [])
})
}
```
`<b-table>` automatically tracks/controls it's `busy` state, however it provides
a `busy` prop that can be used either to override inner `busy`state, or to monitor
`<b-table>`'s current busy state in your application using the 2-way `.sync` modifier.
>**Note:** _in order to allow `<b-table>` fully track it's `busy` state, custom items
provider function should handle errors from data sources and return an empty
array to `<b-table>`._
`<b-table>` provides a `busy` prop that will flag the table as busy, which you can
set to `true` just before your async fetch, and then set it to `false` once you have
your data, and just before you send it to the table for display. Example:
```html
<b-table id="my-table" :busy.sync="isBusy" :items="myProvider" :fields="fields" ...></b-table>
```
```js
data () {
return {
isBusy: false
}
}
methods: {
myProvider (ctx) {
// Here we don't set isBusy prop, so busy state will be handled by table itself
// this.isBusy = true
let promise = axios.get('/some/url')
return promise.then((data) => {
const items = data.items
// Here we could override the busy state, setting isBusy to false
// this.isBusy = false
return(items)
}).catch(error => {
// Here we could override the busy state, setting isBusy to false
// this.isBusy = false
// Returning an empty array, allows table to correctly handle busy state in case of error
return []
})
}
}
```
>**Notes:**
>- _If you manually place the table in the `busy` state, the items provider will
__not__ be called/refreshed until the `busy` state has been set to `false`._
>- _All click related and hover events, and sort-changed events will __not__ be
emitted when in the `busy` state (either set automatically during provider update,
or when manually set)._
### Provider Paging, Filtering, and Sorting
By default, the items provider function is responsible for **all paging, filtering, and sorting**
of the data, before passing it to `b-table` for display.
You can disable provider paging, filtering, and sorting (individually) by setting the
following `b-table` prop(s) to `true`:
| Prop | Type | Default | Description
| ---- | ---- | ------- | -----------
| `no-provider-paging` | Boolean | `false` | When `true` enables the use of `b-table` local data pagination
| `no-provider-sorting` | Boolean | `false` | When `true` enables the use of `b-table` local sorting
| `no-provider-filtering` | Boolean | `false` |When `true` enables the use of `b-table` local filtering
When `no-provider-paging` is `false` (default), you should only return at
maximum, `perPage` number of records.
>**Notes:**
>- _`<b-table>` needs reference to your pagination and filtering values in order to
trigger the calling of the provider function. So be sure to bind to the `per-page`,
`current-page` and `filter` props on `b-table` to trigger the provider update function call
(unless you have the respective `no-provider-*` prop set to `true`)._
>- _The `no-local-sorting` prop has no effect when `items` is a provider function._
### Event based refreshing of data
You may also trigger the refresh of the provider function by emitting the
event `table::refresh` on `$root` with the single argument being the `id` of your `b-table`.
You must have a unique ID on your table for this to work.
```js
this.$root.$emit('bv::table::refresh', 'my-table');
```
Or by calling the refresh method on the table reference
```html
<b-table ref="table" ... ></b-table>
```
```js
this.$refs.table.refresh();
```
These refresh event/methods are only applicable when `items` is a provider function.
### Detection of sorting change
By listening on `<b-table>` `sort-changed` event, you can detect when the sorting key
and direction have changed.
```html
<b-table @sort-changed="sortingChanged" ...></b-table>
```
The `sort-changed` event provides a single argument of the table's current state context object.
This context object has the same format as used by items provider functions.
```js
methods: {
sortingChanged (ctx) {
// ctx.sortBy ==> Field key for sorting by (or null for no sorting)
// ctx.sortDesc ==> true if sorting descending, false otherwise
}
}
```
You can also obtain the current sortBy and sortDesc values by using the `:sort-by.sync` and
`:sort-desc.sync` two-way props respectively (see section [**Sorting**](#sorting) above for details).
```html
<b-table :sort-by.sync="mySortBy" :sort-desc.sync="mySortDesc" ...>
</b-table>
```
### Server Side Rendering
Special care must be taken when using server side rendering (SSR) and an `items` provider
function. Make sure you handle any special situations that may be needed server side
when fetching your data!
