Fixed Data Tables for React

FixedDataTable is a React component for building and presenting data in a flexible, powerful way. It supports standard table features, like headers, columns, rows, header groupings, and both fixed-position and scrolling columns.

The table was designed to handle thousands rows of data without sacrificing performance. Scrolling smoothly is a first-class goal of FixedDataTable and it's architected in a way to allow for flexibility and extensibility.

Features of FixedDataTable:

• Fixed headers and footer
• Both fixed and scrollable columns
• Handling huge amounts of data
• Variable row heights (with adaptive scroll positions)
• Column resizing
• Performant scrolling
• Customizable styling
• Jumping to a row or column
• Controlled scroll API allows touch support

Things the FixedDataTable doesn't do:

• FixedDataTable does not provide a layout reflow mechanism or calculate content layout information such as width and height of the cell contents. The developer has to provide the layout information to the table instead.
• FixedDataTable does not handle sorting of data. Instead it allows the developer to supply data getters that can be sort-, filter-, or tail-loading-aware.
• FixedDataTable does not fetch the data (see above)

Getting started

Install fixed-data-table using npm.

npm install fixed-data-table

Add the default stylesheet dist/fixed-data-table.css, then require it into any module.

var React = require('react');
var FixedDataTable = require('fixed-data-table');

var Table = FixedDataTable.Table;
var Column = FixedDataTable.Column;

// Table data as a list of array.
var rows = [
  ['a1', 'b1', 'c1'],
  ['a2', 'b3', 'c2'],
  ['a3', 'b3', 'c3'],
  ..... /// and more
];

function rowGetter(rowIndex) {
  return rows[rowIndex];
}

React.render(
  <Table
    rowHeight={50}
    rowGetter={rowGetter}
    rowsCount={rows.length}
    width={5000}
    height={5000}
    headerHeight={50}>
    <Column
      label="Col 1"
      width={3000}
      dataKey={0}
    />
    <Column
      label="Col 2"
      width={2000}
      dataKey={1}
    />
  </Table>,
  document.getElementById('example')
);
