Aria-label being passed to header

[shaziajk]

Hi @nihgwu @jamesonhill

Is there any way to currently pass down an aria-label in the props to the table? In the current use case I have the table is being flagged for having accessibility issues as there is no programmatically associated name with the component

Thanks!

@shaziajk Sorry I'm afraid there is no such way to do that, it was built when I knew nothing about a11y

My company maintains a (private) fork for these things since Autodesk doesn't seem to be maintaining this anymore :(

@jamesonhill It's always me not Autodesk maintaining this library 😢 , I planned to work on a rewrite but I don't work with data anymore, and I was busy with other stuffs, so actually there is no effort on new features, but I'd say the current version is already good enough if you need to support IE11, and it's still used in Autodesk

I'd like to know what changes you have made, probably we can do something based on what you have

[jamesonhill]

Ah, I see. I incorrectly assumed based on your comment & seeing no PRs merged that it was no longer maintained. The main thing we use the fork for is this fix: https://github.com/Autodesk/react-base-table/pull/334.

OK I'll take a look at your PR and try to land it soon, sorry I missed that
