Project description
Datatable View
This package is used in conjunction with the jQuery plugin DataTables, and supports state-saving detection with fnSetFilteringDelay. 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 >= 2.2
- dateutil library for flexible, fault-tolerant date parsing.
- jQuery >= 2
- dataTables.js >= 1.10
Getting Started
Install the package:
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
:
# 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:
<!-- myapp/mymodel_list.html -->
<!-- Load dependencies -->
<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>
<!-- Load js for initializing tables via their server-side options -->
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf8" src="{% static 'js/datatableview.js' %}"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
datatableview.initialize($('.datatable'));
});
</script>
<!-- Render the table skeleton, includes the .datatable class for the on-ready initializer. -->
{{ datatable }}

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.
$ 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.
