I'm creating an application that will have an editable table. I've used Ag-Grid before and have found it to be very useful. I've been searching and reading the documentation for a couple of hours now and haven't found any such example of the below image. Is it possible to do something like this in Ag-Grid?
The only thing I've found for grouping hides rows in a tree-like structure. If it's not possible, is there another angular table library that might work?
Did you try? - https://www.ag-grid.com/javascript-grid-row-spanning/
Or another one thing:
groupRowRenderer, groupRowRendererParams -If grouping, allows custom rendering of the group cell. Use this if you are not happy with the default presentation of the group.

Situation:
I'm playing a little by using the Matt Kruse's library I found at the page Table Sorting, Filtering, Etc at the URL http://javascripttoolbox.com/lib/table/source.php.
It works pretty well but I wish to implement a little improvement (maybe it would be better to use the locution "new feature") and I don't know where to start because I'm a newbie in js and that js file uses more advanced programming statements I don't fully understand, not yet at least.
I have a single html file with some tables in it. Some of them are filterable and sortable thanks to that library. The number of tables may vary, the number of columns (fields) in each table may vary as well, and the number of records (rows) of each table may vary as well too. Of course the content is different in each table too.
By placing a specific css class in the th element of the targeted column I choose, I indicate to the Matt Kruse's library to create in that column a html element that is populated of a list of html elements that are computed dynamically by the js it self by picking a distinct and sole value of each record for that column.
When I wish to apply a filter to the table on the basis of certain column, I have just to choose the relative from the corresponding box and the table gets filtered accordingly, as I expect to. It works just hiding the records (the html rows) with not matching criteria in that specific column with a filter applied on it. Of course it is possible to use filters on more than one column at once if needed. It works pretty similarly to MS Excel.
The problem
When I apply a filter to a column the other columns filter drop-down combo boxes (the html elements that contain the compiled options for filtering other columns) continue to show all options instead of hiding those that are filtered in the table and are no more needed. So it becomes pretty tricky especially on complex tables to choose filtering criteria from other columns because the user has to understand by himself what are the criteria that aren't usable because the corresponding rows are already hidden by a filter already applied to another column.
One more thing: when I edit the content of one or more table cells, the filter of the relative column(s) doesn't update to match the editing made, but it seems to be to stay static.
Goal of this question
If I use a spreadsheet (as LibreOffice Calc, or MS Excel, or Google online spreadsheet, or else) when I filter a column other columns' filter drop down menu are filtered as well. If I remove a filter somewhere, other columns filters drop down are updated accordingly.
All this behavior is what I would like to implement into Matt Kruse's library. In this way it would be easier to filter by multiple columns because the boxes containing the filter criteria of the other columns will show just the filter criteria left by the all the previously applied filters.
What I have already tried
I tried to implement something to do that but it was so slow that I was too much ashamed of its execution time that I already deleted the whole algorithm I created.
For comparison using the Matt Kruse's library algorithm implies just few instants to compile all tables data into filter elements (on all tables as well). But the algorithm I've implemented needed more than 30-40 seconds for just one table. Way too inefficient.
Substantially I wrote few "for loops" that for each into each of the filtered table, compares the value of the option with each one of the corresponding column and if finds a mach keeps the option visible, else it hides that element into the . I attached that algorithm to the change event of each , so when I clicked and selected the the event was triggered and all the content of the table was updated. It worked as expected but, as I said, what I implemented was way slower.
So the question is:
How do I modify the Matt Kruse's js file to implement the feature I want keeping the highest possible performance?
(If Matt Kruse is reading this, feel free to pick up this idea and implement the new features needed above: I'm sure it would be greatly appreciated).
Thanks everybody in advance for the contribution.
This is the desired output of the Kendo Grid with nested rows within cell.
Thus far, I've seen a template hack but it seems fairly cumbersome and not convenient for our use cases. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'd ask this on the Kendo forums but I was unable to obtain our licensing info on short notice as I'm working for a client and don't own it directly

Hi fellow Javascripters,
I am using both Angular and D3 in my project (no jQuery, which I intend to keep this way). One thing that I want to support is to enable users to play with 'raw' tabular data. So, data from a CSV is loaded into my app and displayed in a plain old fashioned table (currently with Angulars ng-repeat). However, I now want to be able to animate that columns of the table get reshuffled. So, as a simple example, I would programmatically want to switch column 2 with column 4 and this transition must be D3-like. Furthermore, easily dragging whole columns to other positions should be possible.
Since I am not really experienced with working with jqLite inside Angular directives, my preference would go out to a solution based on D3. I can then see two possible solutions:
Render all of the data in a regular table using the D3 append functionality. Whenever column order changes, somehow reconstruct the table and create a smooth transition.
Simulate a table with div's and css (not looking forward to that though), to enable easy repositioning of data.
Since both solutions are far from trivial (I would say), I would really like to have some opinions. Do you see any other solutions for me? And if one of these two solutions seems right for you, how would you go about implementing them?
Thanks in advance!
I have a large report currently rendered as a regular HTML table. I'd like to be able to group columns together and expand/collapse them with a button.
This is a very common practice for rows but not so much for columns. I was wondering if anyone has any tips for doing it with columns.
My stack includes jquery so that's available to you (though certainly not required!).
Use the columnManager plugin. Can't be easier.
I'm looking to utilize jQuery to handle a few very common requests we get for data tables of varying sizes: scrolling, sorting, and dynamic filtering.
I've handled scrolling in the past by having two separate tables with fixed width columns, along with associated div containers for the "actual" scrolling. However, this method doesn't work with any of the jQuery-based sorting table extensions that I've come across (tablesorter being my favorite so far) as they want everything in a single table.
For filtering, they're requesting something akin to how Excel and SharePoint lists do it (basically all column values are listed in a dropdown, allowing the user to select/deselect them). I haven't seen anything like that yet, although it sounds possible.
One other related nice-to-have feature would be the ability to "freeze" a column for horizontal scrolling.
Ideally I'd like an existing extenstion, but if none are out there I'd also appreciate suggestions from any jQuery gurus on how to best implement it. My current thoughts are to dive into tablesorter and extend/update it as necessary.
To hopefully keep things focused, paging is not an option (along with anything server based, for that matter).
Update:
I do appreciate the answers so far, but none of the options given so far touch on the filtering aspect at all (that said, I must admit that jqGrid looks very good for some future projects I have). In the meantime I'll work on a custom filtering solution; if it works out I'll update again.
I came across this question as I was searching for a sortable table plugin myself; I really wasn't impressed with any of the suggested widgets, but later I discovered DataTables, and I was quite impressed. I recommend checking it out.
Maybe this excellent plug-in could do it:
Demo page
It's called jQGrid, here is the project page:
http://plugins.jquery.com/project/jqGrid
I would encourage you to try out the Flexigrid.
It has a lot of great features and I personally think it looks more professional than the jqGrid.
It doesn't have some of the features that you asking for, but I think it could be a good start. It would be great if you could work on adding some of those features to the code base.
If you are coding in c#, then I posted a blog entry about how to use LINQ to Reflection to bind JSON to the Flexigrid... if you are using another language there are other examples you can find on Flexigrid's Website & Google Group page.
a simple jQuery Scrollable Table Plugin
As mentioned in my update, I ended up using a custom filtering extension (closed source, unfortunately). I've recently started using SlickGrid and it's now my go-to grid.
I'd like to add the Laravel flavored DataTables (GitHub, jquery DataTables API) - perfect if you already work with PHP/Laravel.
Extra, koalyptus/TableFilter another custom filter table (actually, my fav).
