How to use the data-table component

1. Clone the Repo

   git clone https://github.com/sadmann7/shadcn-table

   OR

   git clone https://github.com/arvind-iyer-2001/shadcn-table

2. Copy the following folders and files into your project (configured with ) at the exact specific locations

   • src/components/data-table
   • src/db/index.ts
   • src/hooks
   • src/lib
   • src/types

   Also install the required shadcn components and other required packages with the following commands:

   pnpm dlx shadcn-ui@latest init
   
   pnpm dlx shadcn-ui@latest add button badge checkbox command dialog dropdown-menu input popover select separator skeleton table toast
   
   pnpm add drizzle-orm postgres @tanstack/react-table zod sonner @t3-oss/env-nextjs
   pnpm add -D drizzle-kit dotenv-cli pg tsx

3. Configure your Environment Variables Then set up the Database URL, for this example, we're using PlanetScale MySQL2 Database. Our schemas will also be made using this.

4. Database Actions: For this you can use any ORM of your choice, but for the sake of this particular example, we're using Drizzle ORM and Neon.

   As an example, lets use the tasks table.

   • Create the Table Schema at @/db/schema.ts
   • Create the associated zod validations @/lib/validations/tasks.ts file

5. Setting up the Table

   • Start with creating a page.tsx file, and if necessary, a layout.tsx file in the app directory
   • Copy the contents of the ./_components and ./_lib directories into your project wherever you want to use the table.
   • Modify each of the files according to your database table.
   • Modify the queries and mutations in the ./_lib/queries.ts and ./_lib/actions.ts files respectively.
   • Modify the ./page.tsx file to define the getTasksPromise to be used in the ./_components/task-table.tsx component.
   • Modify the ./_components/task-table.tsx file to define the column header, column based actions, searchable columns, and filterable columns. The getTasksPromise is consumed here using the React.use hook. Components and Data that have to be memoized must be declared here, because it can not be done in a server component.
   • The ./hooks/useTasksTable.tsx hook is called in the ./_components/task-table.tsx file to expose the table instance to be used in the ./_components/tasks-table-actions.tsx file. This hook is used to handle the server side pagination, sorting, and filtering of the table.
   • Modify the ./_components/tasks-table-actions.tsx file to define the the selected rows based actions, like deleting and modifying a group of rows, and floating bar content (can be used in the floatingBarContent prop of the DataTable component as TasksTableFloatingBarContent(dataTable))
   • Make sure to remove the demo inputs from the ./components/task-table.tsx file. These are used for showing how the and the floating bar works.
