Get Start

List/Array/Set/Enumrable non Key/Value Type Example

using HtmlTableHelper;
..
var sourceData = new[] { new { Name = "ITWeiHan", Age = "25",Gender = "M" } };
var tablehtml = sourceData.ToHtmlTable();
/*
Result:
<table><thead><tr><th>Name</th><th>Age</th><th>Gender</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>ITWeiHan</td><td>25</td><td>M</td></tr></tbody></table>
*/

Dapper Example

using (var cn = "Your Connection")
{
	var sourceData = cn.Query(@"select 'ITWeiHan' Name,25 Age,'M' Gender");
	var tablehtml = sourceData.ToHtmlTable();
}

Dictionary Example

var sourceData = new[] {new Dictionary<string, object> (){{"Name" , "ITWeiHan" },{"Age",25},{"Gender","M"}}};
var tablehtml = sourceData.ToHtmlTable();

Custom Table/TR/TD/TH Attributes (Dynamic Type)

var data = /*List/Array/Set/Enumrable..*/;
var html = data.ToHtmlTable( tableAttributes: new { @class = "SomeClass"} //this is dynamic type, support all attribute 
    ,trAttributes: new { ID = "SomeID" },tdAttributes: new { width = "120 px" },thAttributes: new { @class = "dark-theme" }
);
/*
Result:
<table class="SomeClass">
	<thead>
		<tr ID="SomeID">
			<th class="dark-theme">..</th>
		</tr>
	</thead>
	<tbody>
		<tr ID="SomeID">
			<td width="120 px">..</td>
		</tr>
	</tbody>
</table>
*/

Attribute Annotation

1. Display :

public class ModelClassWithDisplayAttr
{
    [TableColumn(DisplayName = "Column1")] //MyProperty1 property will render thead-td's innertext : "Column1"
    public string MyProperty1 { get; set; }
    [TableColumn(DisplayName = "Column2")] //MyProperty2 property will render thead-td's innertext : "Column2"
    public string MyProperty2 { get; set; }
}

2. Skip :

public class ModelClassWithSkipAttr
{
    [TableColumn( Skip = true)]
    public string MyProperty1 { get; set; } //MyProperty1 will not render html
    public string MyProperty2 { get; set; }
}

HTMLTableBuilder

HtmlCaption

var soucreData = new []{ new {MyProperty1="test",MyProperty2=123} };
var html = soucreData.CreateBuilder()
    .SetCaption("This is Caption", new { id = "CaptionId" })
    .ToHtmlTable();
//Result : <table><caption id=\"CaptionId\" >This is Caption</caption><thead><tr><th>MyProperty1</th><th>MyProperty2</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>test</td><td>123</td></tr></tbody></table>

HTMLTableSetting

Configurable InnerHtml Encoding (Recommended not to do so without a specific reason,because XSS Attack)

var sourceData = new[] { new { Name = "<b>ITWeiHan</b>" } };

//Default Encoding
var encodinghtml = sourceData.ToHtmlTable();
//Result: <table>..&lt;b&gt;ITWeiHan&lt;/b&gt;..</table>

var htmltablesetting = new HTMLTableSetting()
{
    IsHtmlEncodeMode = false
};
var notEncodinghtml = sourceData.ToHtmlTable(HTMLTableSetting: htmltablesetting);
//Result: <table>..<b>ITWeiHan</b>..</table>

Extension

ASP.NET Core MVC:
Create a IHtmlHelperExtension.cs

using System.Collections.Generic;
using HtmlTableHelper;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Rendering;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Html;

public static class IHtmlHelperExtension
{
    public static HtmlString ToHtmlTable<T>(this IHtmlHelper htmlHelper, IEnumerable<T> enums
        , object tableAttributes = null, object trAttributes = null, object tdAttributes = null
        , HtmlTableSetting HTMLTableSetting = null)
    {
        var html = enums.ToHtmlTable(tableAttributes, trAttributes, tdAttributes, HTMLTableSetting);
        return new HtmlString(html);
    }

    public static HtmlString ToHtmlTable<T>(this IHtmlHelper htmlHelper, System.Data.DataTable datatable
        , object tableAttributes = null, object trAttributes = null, object tdAttributes = null
        , HtmlTableSetting HTMLTableSetting = null)
    {
        var html = datatable.ToHtmlTable(tableAttributes, trAttributes, tdAttributes, HTMLTableSetting);
        return new HtmlString(html);
    }
}

razor.cshtml

@Html.ToHtmlTable(new[] { new { Name = "ITWeiHan", Age = "25", Gender = "M" } })
/*
Result:<table><thead><tr><th>Name</th><th>Age</th><th>Gender</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>ITWeiHan</td><td>25</td><td>M</td></tr></tbody></table>
*/

ASP.NET MVC 5:
Create a HtmlHelperExtension.cs

using System.Collections.Generic;
using HtmlTableHelper;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Mvc;

public static class HtmlHelperExtension
{
    public static HtmlString ToHtmlTable<T>(this HtmlHelper htmlHelper, IEnumerable<T> enums
        , object tableAttributes = null, object trAttributes = null, object tdAttributes = null
        , HtmlTableSetting HTMLTableSetting = null)
    {
        var html = enums.ToHtmlTable(tableAttributes, trAttributes, tdAttributes, HTMLTableSetting);
        return new HtmlString(html);
    }

    public static HtmlString ToHtmlTable<T>(this HtmlHelper htmlHelper, System.Data.DataTable datatable
        , object tableAttributes = null, object trAttributes = null, object tdAttributes = null
        , HtmlTableSetting HTMLTableSetting = null)
    {
        var html = datatable.ToHtmlTable(tableAttributes, trAttributes, tdAttributes, HTMLTableSetting);
        return new HtmlString(html);
    }
}

Demo

ASP.NET MVC 5 JQuery DataTable Demo:

using HtmlTableHelper;
//..

{
    public ActionResult Index()
    {
        var datas = new[] { new { Name = "ITWeiHan", Age = "25",Gender = "M" } };
        ViewBag.Table = datas.ToHtmlTable();
        return View();
    }
}
