How to implement DataTable in React
📅August 22, 2020
Today we will show you how to implement DataTable in React. There are many tables available in ReactJS but the datatable is a table component that is available with advanced options.
In this article, we will create a demo that contains a simple datatable with sorting and pagination functionality.
Steps to implement DataTable in React
- Create react application
- Install datatable package
- Integrate datatable with sorting and pagination
- Output
1. Create react application
Let’s create a simple react app using `create-react-app`. Run the following command to create an application.
npx create-react-app react-datatable-example
2. Install datatable package
To integrate datatable, we will have to install the react-data-table-component npm package in the application.
Here we have to install the `styled-components` along with the `react-data-table-component` package. Execute the following command to install datatable.
npm install react-data-table-component styled-components
3. Integrate datatable with sorting and pagination
Let’s split the datatable integration into the below points.
- Use the sample data JSON to show the data into the table.
- Create a list of columns by using `name`, `selector` and `sortable` attributes. Visit columns props for more advanced features.
- Import the `react-data-table-component` package in the react component.
- Render the `DataTable` component by passing the columns, data, pagination and other attributes.
Check out the following code to integrate DataTable.
