One of the best javascript datagrid SlickGrid which was originally developed by @mleibman is now available to Angular. I have used a few datagrids and SlickGrid beats most of them in terms of functionalities and performance (it can easily deal with even a million row). We will be using the 6pac/SlickGrid fork, this is the most active fork since the original @mleibman fork was closed some time ago by his author for personal reasons. Also worth to know, I also contributed a lot to the 6pac/SlickGrid fork for the benefit of Angular-Slickgrid... also a reminder, this is a wrapper of a jQuery lib (SlickGrid), a big portion of the lib (like Editors, Filters and others) are written in jQuery/JavaScript, so just keep that in mind and it also means that jQuery is a dependecy.
You like and use this great library Angular-Slickgrid

Refer to the Wiki - HOWTO Step by Step and/or clone the Angular-Slickgrid Demos repository. Please don't open any issue unless you have followed these steps (from the Wiki), and if any of the steps are incorrect or confusing, then please let me know.
Angular-Slickgrid
supports both Bootstrap 3
and Bootstrap 4
, you can see a demo of each one below.
For a complete and working local demo, you can clone the Angular-Slickgrid Demos repository. That repo is updated frequently and is used for demoing both the Bootstrap 3 demo and Bootstrap 4 demo.
git clone https://github.com/ghiscoding/angular-slickgrid-demos
cd bootstrap4-demo-with-translate
npm install
npm start
- version
1.x.x
for Angular 4 to 6- Angular 6, is only supported through
rxjs-compat
as shown in this post. It's preferable to upgrade to Angular 7+ to avoid using therxjs-compat
package.
- Angular 6, is only supported through
- version
2.x.x
for Angular 7+- since version
2.11.0
, you can also change your buildtarget
toES2015
for modern browser.
- since version
Angular-Slickgrid recently reached 100% Test Coverage, we are talking about ~8200 lines of code (~2400 unit tests) that are now fully tested with Jest.
You might notice that all demos are coded with mocked dataset in each examples, that is mainly for demo purposes, but you might be wondering how to connect this with an HttpClient
? Easy... just replace the mocked data, assigned to the dataset
property, by your HttpClient
call and that's it. The dataset
property can be changed or refreshed at any time, which is why you can use local data and/or connect it to a Promise
or an Observable
with HttpClient
(internally it's just a SETTER that refreshes the grid). See Example 24 for a demo showing how to load a JSON file with HttpClient
.
Technically speaking, Material
theme is not provided, but it should still work.
The styling might need some adjustments to make it look like Material
but there's over 300+ SASS variables,
so I'm sure making a Material Theme is totally doable and if you do, please contribute it as a new theme to the project. Thank you.
You like the library and would like contribute? That would be awesome, the first thing you can do is head over to the Version 2.x - Project, there are some tasks that I would gladly like receiving help with. One of the biggest task is to increase Jest unit tests code coverage and/or more Cypress E2E tests.
The Wiki is where all the documentation and instructions will go, so please consult the Angular-Slickgrid - Wiki before opening any issues. The Wiki - HOWTO is a great place to start with. You can also take a look at the Demo page, it includes sample for most of the features and it keeps growing (so you might want to consult it whenever a new version comes out).

You can see some screenshots below and the instructions down below and if that is not enough for you to decide, head over to the Wiki - Main Features.
What if Angular-Slickgrid
is missing feature(s) compare to the original core library 6pac/SlickGrid?
Fear not, and just simply reference the SlickGrid
and DataView
objects, just like in the core lib, those are exposed through Event Emitters. For more info continue reading on Wiki - SlickGrid & DataView objects and Wiki - Grid & DataView Events
Screenshots from the demo app with the Bootstrap
theme (that is the only available theme, but there is a lot of SASS variables to make it look like Material, or other theme if you wish to. If you create a new theme, please submit a PR).
