jEasyUI creates custom views

In different situations, you may need to use a more flexible layout for the datagrid. For users, Card View is a good choice. This tool quickly retrieves and displays data in a datagrid. In the header of the datagrid, you can sort the data simply by clicking on the column header. This tutorial will show you how to create a custom Card View.

Create a Card View

Inheriting from the default view of the datagrid is a good way to create a custom view. We are going to create a Card View to display some information for each row.

	var cardview = $.extend({}, $.fn.datagrid.defaults.view, {
		renderRow: function(target, fields, frozen, rowIndex, rowData){
			var cc = [];
			cc.push('<td colspan=' + fields.length + ' style="padding:10px 5px;border:0;">');
			if (!frozen){
				var aa = rowData.itemid.split('-');
				var img = 'shirt' + aa[1] + '.gif';
				cc.push('<img src="images/' + img + '" style="width:150px;float:left">');
				cc.push('<div style="float:left;margin-left:20px;">');
				for(var i=0; i<fields.length; i++){
					var copts = $(target).datagrid('getColumnOption', fields[i]);
					cc.push('<p><span class="c-label">' + copts.title + ':</span> ' + rowData[fields[i]] + '</p>');
				}
				cc.push('</div>');
			}
			cc.push('</td>');
			return cc.join('');
		}
	});

Create data grid (DataGrid)

Now we use the view to create the data grid (datagrid).

	<table id="tt" style="width:500px;height:400px"
			title="DataGrid - CardView" singleSelect="true" fitColumns="true" remoteSort="false"
			url="datagrid8_getdata.php" pagination="true" sortOrder="desc" sortName="itemid">
		<thead>
			<tr>
				<th field="itemid" width="80" sortable="true">Item ID</th>
				<th field="listprice" width="80" sortable="true">List Price</th>
				<th field="unitcost" width="80" sortable="true">Unit Cost</th>
				<th field="attr1" width="150" sortable="true">Attribute</th>
				<th field="status" width="60" sortable="true">Status</th>
			</tr>
		</thead>
	</table>

	$('#tt').datagrid({
		view: cardview
	});

Please note that we set the view property and its value is our card view.
