Create a new table element.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
data dynamic(Any)

None
page_size int

For a paginated table, the number of visible rows.

100
allow_all_rows bool

For a paginated table, adds an option to show all the rows.

False
show_all bool

For a paginated table, show all the rows.

False
auto_loading bool

If True, the data will be loaded on demand.

False
selected dynamic(Union[list[int], str])

The list of the indices of the rows to be displayed as selected.

None
page_size_options Union[list[int], str]

The list of available page sizes that users can choose from.

[50, 100, 500]
columns Union[str, list[str], dict[str, dict[str, Union[str, int]]]]

The list of the column names to display.

  • str: semicolon (';')-separated list of column names.
  • list[str]: the list of column names.
  • dict: a dictionary with entries matching: {"<column_name>": {"format": "<format>", "index": 1}}.
    If index is specified, it represents the display order of this column.
    If index is not specified, the list order defines the index.
    If format is specified, it is used for numbers or dates.

If columns is omitted or set to None, all columns of data are represented.

All columns
date_format str

The date format used for all date columns when the format is not specifically defined.

MM/dd/yyyy
number_format str

The number format used for all number columns when the format is not specifically defined.

None
row_class_name Union[str, Callable]

Allows for styling rows.
This property must be a function or the name of a function that return the name of a CSS class for table rows.
This function is invoked with the following parameters:

  • state (State): the state instance.
  • index (int): the index of the row.
  • row (Any): all the values for this row.

See below for more details.

None
tooltip Union[str, Callable]

Enables tooltips on cells.
This property must be a function or the name of a function that must return a tooltip text for a cell.
See below for more details.

None
width str

The width of the table control, in CSS units.

100%
height str

The height of the table control, in CSS units.

80vh

nan_value str

The replacement text for NaN (not-a-number) values.

editable dynamic(bool)

Indicates, if True, that all cells can be edited.

False
on_edit Union[bool, Callable]

A function or the name of a function triggered when an edited cell is validated.
This function is invoked with the following parameters:

  • state (State): the state instance.
  • var_name (str): the name of the tabular data variable.
  • payload (dict): a dictionary containing details about the callback invocation, with the following keys:
    • index (int): the row index.
    • col (str): the column name.
    • value (Any): the new cell value, cast to the column's data type.
    • user_value (str): the new cell value, as entered by the user.
    • tz (str): the timezone, if the column type is date.
If this property is set to False, the table does not provide the cell editing functionality.
If this property is not set, the table will use the default implementation for editing cells.

default implementation
on_add Union[bool, Callable]

A function or the name of a function that is triggered when the user requests a row to be added to the table.
This function is invoked with the following parameters:

  • state (State): the state instance.
  • var_name (str): the name of the tabular data variable.
  • payload (dict): the details on this callback's invocation.
    This dictionary has the following key:
    • index (int): the row index.

If this property is not set, the table uses the default implementation for adding a new row
If this property is set to False, you cannot add new rows.

None

  • payload (dict): the details on this callback's invocation.
    This dictionary has one key:
    • index (int): the row index.

If this property is not set, the table uses the default implementation for deleting rows.

default implementation
on_action Union[str, Callable]

A function or the name of a function that is triggered when the user selects a row.
This function is invoked with the following parameters:

  • state (State): the state instance.
  • var_name (str): the name of the tabular data variable.
  • payload (dict): the details on this callback's invocation.
    This dictionary has the following keys:
    • action: the name of the action that triggered this callback.
    • index (int): the row index.
    • col (str): the column name.
    • reason (str): the origin of the action: "click", or "button" if the cell contains a Markdown link syntax.
