The required ReactJS script dependencies as follows. And you can also refer React to know more about react js.

- http://cdn.syncfusion.com/{{ site.releaseversion }}/js/common/ej.web.react.min.js
To get started, you can use the ej.web.all.min.js
file that encapsulates all the ej
controls and frameworks in one single file. So the complete boilerplate code is

N> In production, we highly recommend you to use our custom script generator to create custom script file with required controls and its dependencies only. Also to reduce the file size further please use GZip compression in your server.
For themes, you can use the ej.web.all.min.css
CDN link from the code example given. To add the themes in your application, please refer to this link.
Create a Grid
Control can be initialized in two ways.
- Using jsx Template
- Without using jsx Template
Using jsx Template
By using the jsx template, we can create the html file and jsx file. The .jsx
file can be convert to .js
file and it can be referred in html page.
Please refer to the code of HTML file.
{% highlight html %}
<div id="Grid-default"></div>
<script type="text/babel" src="app.jsx">
</script>
{% endhighlight %}
Create a JSX file and paste the following content
{% highlight js %}
var shipDetails = [
{ Name: 'Hanari Carnes', City: 'Brazil' },
{ Name: 'Split Rail Beer & Ale', City: 'USA' },
{ Name: 'Ricardo Adocicados', City: 'Brazil' }
];
ReactDOM.render(
<EJ.Grid dataSource = {shipDetails} >
</EJ.Grid>,
document.getElementById('Grid-default')
);
{% endhighlight %}
Data binding
Data binding
in the grid is achieved by assigning an array of JavaScript objects to the dataSource
property. Refer to the following code example.
Please refer to the code of HTML file.
{% highlight html %}
<div id="Grid-default"></div>
<script type="text/babel" src="app.jsx">
</script>
{% endhighlight %}
Create a JSX file and paste the following content
{% highlight js %}
var cols = ["OrderID", "EmployeeID", "CustomerID", "ShipCountry", "Freight"];
ReactDOM.render(
//The datasource "window.gridData" is referred from 'http://js.syncfusion.com/demos/web/scripts/jsondata.min.js'
<EJ.Grid dataSource = {window.gridData} columns={cols}>
</EJ.Grid>,
document.getElementById('Grid-default')
);
{% endhighlight %}
N> ODataAdaptor is the default adaptor for the DataManager. On binding to other web services, proper data adaptor needs to be set on adaptor
option of the DataManager.
Enable Paging
Paging can be enabled by setting the allowPaging
to true. This adds the pager in the bottom of the grid and page size can be customized by using the pageSettings.pageSize
property
Please refer to the code of HTML file.
{% highlight html %}
<div id="Grid-default"></div>
<script type="text/babel" src="app.jsx">
</script>
{% endhighlight %}
Create a JSX file and paste the following content
{% highlight js %}
var pageSettings = { pageSize: 8 };
var cols = ["OrderID", "EmployeeID", "CustomerID", "ShipCountry", "Freight"];
ReactDOM.render(
//The datasource "window.gridData" is referred from 'http://js.syncfusion.com/demos/web/scripts/jsondata.min.js'
<EJ.Grid dataSource = {window.gridData} columns={cols} allowPaging = {true} pageSettings={pageSettings} >
</EJ.Grid>,
document.getElementById('Grid-default')
);
{% endhighlight %}
N> Pager settings can be customized by using the pageSettings.pageSize
property. When it is not given the default values for pageSize
and pageCount
are 12 and 8 respectively.
Enable Filtering
Filtering
can be enabled by setting the allowFiltering
to true
. By default, the filter bar row is displayed to perform filtering, you can change the filter type by using the filterSetting.filterType
property.
Please refer to the code of HTML file.
{% highlight html %}
<div id="Grid-default"></div>
<script type="text/babel" src="app.jsx">
</script>
{% endhighlight %}
Create a JSX file and paste the following content
{% highlight js %}
var pageSettings = { pageSize: 8 };
var cols = ["OrderID", "EmployeeID", "CustomerID", "ShipCountry", "Freight"];
ReactDOM.render(
//The datasource "window.gridData" is referred from 'http://js.syncfusion.com/demos/web/scripts/jsondata.min.js'
<EJ.Grid dataSource = {window.gridData} columns={cols} allowPaging = {true} pageSettings={pageSettings} allowFiltering={true} >
</EJ.Grid>,
document.getElementById('Grid-default')
);
{% endhighlight %}
Enable Grouping
Grouping
can be enabled by setting the allowGrouping
to true
. Columns can be grouped dynamically by drag and drop the grid column header to the group drop area. The initial grouping can be done by adding required column names in the groupSettings.groupedColumns
property.
Please refer to the code of HTML file.
{% highlight html %}
<div id="Grid-default"></div>
<script type="text/babel" src="app.jsx">
</script>
{% endhighlight %}
Create a JSX file and paste the following content
{% highlight js %}
var pageSettings = { pageSize: 8 };
var cols = ["OrderID", "EmployeeID", "CustomerID", "ShipCountry", "Freight"];
ReactDOM.render(
//The datasource "window.gridData" is referred from 'http://js.syncfusion.com/demos/web/scripts/jsondata.min.js'
<EJ.Grid dataSource = {window.gridData} columns={cols} allowPaging = {true} pageSettings={pageSettings} allowGrouping={true} >
</EJ.Grid>,
document.getElementById('Grid-default')
);
{% endhighlight %}
Refer to the following code example for initial grouping.
Please refer to the code of HTML file.
{% highlight html %}
<div id="Grid-default"></div>
<script type="text/babel" src="app.jsx">
</script>
{% endhighlight %}
Create a JSX file and paste the following content
{% highlight js %}
var pageSettings = { pageSize: 8 };
var groupSettings = { groupedColumns: ["ShipCountry", "CustomerID"] };
var cols = ["OrderID", "EmployeeID", "CustomerID", "ShipCountry", "Freight"];
ReactDOM.render(
//The datasource "window.gridData" is referred from 'http://js.syncfusion.com/demos/web/scripts/jsondata.min.js'
<EJ.Grid dataSource = {window.gridData} columns={cols} allowPaging = {true} pageSettings={pageSettings} allowGrouping={true} groupSettings={groupSettings} >
</EJ.Grid>,
document.getElementById('Grid-default')
);
{% endhighlight %}
Add Summaries
Summaries
can be added by setting the showSummary
to true and adding required summary rows and columns in the summaryRows
property. For demonstration, Stock column's sum value is displayed as summary.
{% highlight html %}
var pageSettings = { pageSize: 8 };
var groupSettings = { groupedColumns: ["CustomerID"] };
var cols = ["OrderID", "EmployeeID", "CustomerID", "ShipCountry", "Freight"];
var summaryRows = [
{
title: "Sum",
summaryColumns: [{ summaryType: ej.Grid.SummaryType.Sum, displayColumn: "Freight", dataMember: "Freight" }]
}
];
ReactDOM.render(
//The datasource "window.gridData" is referred from 'http://js.syncfusion.com/demos/web/scripts/jsondata.min.js'
<EJ.Grid dataSource = {window.gridData} columns={cols} allowPaging = {true} pageSettings={pageSettings} allowGrouping={true} groupSettings={groupSettings} showSummary={true} summaryRows={summaryRows} >
</EJ.Grid>,
document.getElementById('Grid-default')
);
