import React from "react";

interface User {
  id: number;
  name: string;
  role: string;
  status: "Active" | "Inactive";
}

const columns: TableColumn<User>[] = [
  { id: "id", label: "ID", numeric: true, sortable: true },
  { id: "name", label: "Name", sortable: true },
  { id: "role", label: "Role" },
  {
    id: "status",
    label: "Status",
    render: (value) => (
      <span
        style={{
          color: value === "Active" ? "#10b981" : "#ef4444",
          fontWeight: 600,
        }}

const data: User[] = [
  { id: 1, name: "John Doe", role: "Admin", status: "Active" },
  { id: 2, name: "Jane Smith", role: "User", status: "Inactive" },
];

export default function App() {

Column Configuration

interface TableColumn<T> {
  id: string; // Supports dot notation: 'user.profile.name'
  label: string;
  numeric?: boolean;
  sortable?: boolean;
  isVisible?: boolean;
  hideable?: boolean; // Can user toggle visibility
  render?: (value: any, row: T, index: number) => React.ReactNode;
  styled?: React.CSSProperties;
  width?: string | number;
}

Advanced Features

Persistence

By providing a tableId, the component will automatically remember which columns the user has hidden or shown. This is saved in the browser's localStorage and persists across sessions.

Permission Handling

Easily manage restricted data views using the isPermission and noAccessMessage props.

<DataTable
  data={data}
  columns={columns}
  isPermission={userHasAccess}
  noAccessMessage="Contact admin for access to this data."
/>
