tablesort.js

Tablesort is a small & simple sorting component for tables written in Javascript. It has no dependencies and should have no interference with other libraries.

Basic usage

<script src='tablesort.min.js'></script>
<script>
  new Tablesort(document.getElementById('table-id'));
</script>

Sort Types

  • strings
  • numbers
  • currency
  • Basic dates in dd/mm/yy or dd-mm-yy format. Years can be 4 digits. Days and Months can be 1 or 2 digits.

Additional options

Ascending/Descending You can pass in options as a second parameter. Currently one option is supported: descending: true. By default, sort is set to ascending.

new Tablesort(document.getElementById('table-id'), {
  descending: true
});

Exclude columns or rows For columns or rows that do not require sorting, you can add a class of no-sort to a columns th or a tr element.

<th class='no-sort'>Name</th>

<tr class='no-sort'>
  <td>1</td>
  <td>Gonzo the Great</td>
  <td>12-2-70</td>
  <td>Radishes</td>
  <td>$0.63</td>
</tr>

Refresh sort on appended data Tablesort supports sorting when new data has been added. Simply call the refresh method.

var table = document.getElementById('table-id');
var sort = new Tablesort(table);

// Make some Ajax request to fetch new data and on success:
sort.refresh();

See homepage for example

Ender support

Add tablesort as an internal chain method to your Ender compilation.

$ ender add tablesort

$('.table').tablesort();

Default style

Add the styling below to your CSS or roll with your own.

th.sort-header {
  cursor:pointer;
  }
th.sort-header::-moz-selection,
th.sort-header::selection {
  background:transparent;
  }
table th.sort-header:after {
  content:'';
  float:right;
  margin-top:7px;
  border-width:0 4px 4px;

  opacity:0.4;
  }
