TableBlock
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
The TableBlock module provides an HTML table block type for StreamField. This module uses `handsontable <https://handsontable.com/>`_ to provide users with the ability to create and edit HTML tables in Wagtail.

|
|
|
Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Add ``"wagtail.contrib.table_block"`` to your INSTALLED_APPS:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
INSTALLED_APPS = [
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
"wagtail.contrib.table_block",
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Basic Usage
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
After installation the TableBlock module can be used in a similar fashion to other StreamField blocks in the Wagtail core.
|
|
|
|
Just import the TableBlock ``from wagtail.contrib.table_block.blocks import TableBlock`` and add it to your StreamField declaration.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
class DemoStreamBlock(StreamBlock):
|
|
...
|
|
table = TableBlock()
|
|
|
|
|
|
Advanced Usage
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
Default Configuration
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
When defining a TableBlock, Wagtail provides the ability to pass an optional ``table_options`` dictionary. The default TableBlock dictionary looks like this:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
default_table_options = {
|
|
'minSpareRows': 0,
|
|
'startRows': 3,
|
|
'startCols': 3,
|
|
'colHeaders': False,
|
|
'rowHeaders': False,
|
|
'contextMenu': True,
|
|
'editor': 'text',
|
|
'stretchH': 'all',
|
|
'height': 108,
|
|
'language': language,
|
|
'renderer': 'text',
|
|
'autoColumnSize': False,
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configuration Options
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Every key in the ``table_options`` dictionary maps to a `handsontable <https://handsontable.com/>`_ option. These settings can be changed to alter the behaviour of tables in Wagtail. The following options are available:
|
|
|
|
* `minSpareRows <https://docs.handsontable.com/0.24.3/Options.html#minSpareRows>`_ - The number of rows to append to the end of an empty grid. The default setting is 0.
|
|
* `startRows <https://docs.handsontable.com/0.24.3/Options.html#startRows>`_ - The default number of rows for a new table.
|
|
* `startCols <https://docs.handsontable.com/0.24.3/Options.html#startCols>`_ - The default number of columns for new tables.
|
|
* `colHeaders <https://docs.handsontable.com/0.24.3/Options.html#colHeaders>`_ - Can be set to ``True`` or ``False``. This setting designates if new tables should be created with column rows. **Note:** this only sets the behaviour for newly created tables. Page editors can override this by checking the the “Column header” checkbox in the table editor in the Wagtail admin.
|
|
* `rowHeaders <https://docs.handsontable.com/0.24.3/Options.html#rowHeaders>`_ - Operates the same as colHeaders to designate if new tables should be created with the first row as a header. Just like colHeaders this option can be overridden by the page editor in the Wagtail admin.
|
|
* `contextMenu <https://docs.handsontable.com/0.24.3/Options.html#contextMenu>`_ - Enables or disables the handsontable right-click menu. By default this is set to ``True``.
|
|
* `editor <https://docs.handsontable.com/0.24.3/Options.html#editor>`_ - Defines the editor used for table cells. The default setting is text.
|
|
* `stretchH <https://docs.handsontable.com/0.24.3/Options.html#stretchH>`_ - Sets the default horizontal resizing of tables. Options include, 'none', 'last', and 'all'. By default TableBlock uses 'all' for the even resizing of columns.
|
|
* `height <https://docs.handsontable.com/0.24.3/Options.html#height>`_ - The default height of the grid. By default TableBlock sets the height to ``108`` for the optimal appearance of new tables in the editor. This is optimized for tables with ``startRows`` set to ``3``. If you change the number of startRows in the configuration you might need to change the ``height`` setting to improve the default appearence in the editor.
|
|
* `language <https://docs.handsontable.com/0.24.3/Options.html#language>`_ - The default language setting. By default TableBlock tries to get the language from ``django.utils.translation.get_language``. If needed, this setting can be overridden here.
|
|
* `renderer <https://docs.handsontable.com/0.24.3/Options.html#renderer>`_ - The default setting handsontable uses to render the content of table cells.
|
|
* `autoColumnSize <https://docs.handsontable.com/0.24.3/Options.html#autoColumnSize>`_ - Enables or disables the autoColumnSize plugin. The TableBlock default setting is ``False``.
|
|
|
|
A `complete list of handsontable options <https://docs.handsontable.com/0.24.3/Options.html>`_ can be found on the handsontable website.

Changing the default table_options
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
To change the default table options just pass a new table_options dictionary when a new TableBlock is declared.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
new_table_options = {
|
|
'minSpareRows': 0,
|
|
'startRows': 6,
|
|
'startCols': 4,
|
|
'colHeaders': False,
|
|
'rowHeaders': False,
|
|
'contextMenu': True,
|
|
'editor': 'text',
|
|
'stretchH': 'all',
|
|
'height': 216,
|
|
'language': 'en',
|
|
'renderer': 'text',
|
|
'autoColumnSize': False,
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
class DemoStreamBlock(StreamBlock):
|
|
...
|
|
table = TableBlock(table_options=new_table_options)
