does reactive-table has Row Expander functionality ?

[sharathbangera6]

Hi,

Wanted to know if reactive-table provides row-expander functionality ? any idea on how to implement the same if it doesn't provide ?

No, sorry. And unfortunately I don't think you could implement it without modifying the package.

@sharathbangera6 you could consider doing it this way: https://github.com/aslagle/reactive-table/pull/296 until there is an officially supported option. I know that the gentleman that wrote it is planning on eventually writing it as a tmpl as @aslagle suggested, but it's an option for now (I'm using it). You'd just have to be careful when updating the core reactive-table package.

I've added a new pull request: #403

You can try out the code here: https://github.com/ClarenceL/reactive-table/tree/feature-child-tmpl

It's pretty simple, on the column you want the expand button, for the fields item, add the setting expandButton: true

Then add to the root settings object children: { tmpl: Template."your template name" }

See the added readme CHILD_TABLE_README.md for more details
