flutter_table_plus 1.6.0

flutter_table_plus: ^1.6.0 copied to clipboard

• Enhanced Theming and Styling Capabilities

  • Advanced Header Customization: TablePlusHeaderTheme now includes a decoration property, allowing full control over the header's appearance (e.g., borders, gradients, shadows) using BoxDecoration.
  • Individual Header Cell Styling: Added cellDecoration to TablePlusHeaderTheme for styling individual header cells.
  • Flexible Row Interaction Effects: TablePlusSelectionTheme has been updated to provide more granular control over row interaction effects:
    • Set hoverColor, splashColor, and highlightColor independently for both normal and selected rows (e.g., rowHoverColor, selectedRowHoverColor).
    • If these properties are left null, the default Flutter framework effects will be used, enhancing consistency and predictability.
    • The enableRowInteractionEffects property has been removed for a simpler and more direct API.
  • Customizable Header Divider: Added dividerThickness to TablePlusHeaderTheme to control the thickness of the header's bottom divider.

• Improved Feature Flexibility

  • Custom Row ID Key: Added a rowIdKey property to FlutterTablePlus, allowing developers to specify which key in their data map should be used as a unique row identifier. This removes the previous requirement of having a mandatory 'id' key.
  • Text Overflow and Tooltip: TablePlusColumn now supports a textOverflow property (ellipsis, clip, fade). When ellipsis is used, a tooltip automatically appears on hover to show the full text.

• Internal Code Refinements

  • Theme Structure Refactoring: Theme-related classes have been organized into separate files (header_theme.dart, body_theme.dart, etc.) for better code structure and maintainability.

• Added Single Selection Mode

  • Introduced SelectionMode.single to allow only one row to be selected at a time.
  • When a new row is selected in single selection mode, the previous selection is automatically cleared.
  • The "Select All" checkbox is now automatically hidden when in single selection mode for a cleaner UI.

• Refactored Example Page

  • The main example page (table_example_page.dart) has been significantly refactored for better readability and maintainability.
  • Key UI components like the app bar actions, status indicators, and documentation sections have been extracted into their own reusable widgets:
    • TableAppBarActions
    • TableStatusIndicators
    • ExampleDocumentation
  • This improves code organization and makes the example easier to understand and adapt.

• Enhanced Feature Control Options

  • Added ability to completely disable column reordering by setting onColumnReorder: null. This removes drag handles and disables drag-and-drop functionality entirely.
  • Added ability to completely disable sorting by setting onSort: null. This hides all sort icons and disables sorting click handlers for all columns.
  • Improved conditional feature control for better user experience and permissions-based functionality.

• Documentation Improvements

  • Added comprehensive Column Reordering section to ADVANCED_COLUMNS.md with complete implementation examples.
  • Enhanced SORTING.md with detailed comparison between sortable: false and onSort: null.
  • Updated README.md with new "Conditional Feature Control" section and examples.
  • Added practical examples for dynamic feature enabling/disabling based on user permissions.

• Enabled Simultaneous Selection and Editing
  • Removed the restriction that prevented isSelectable and isEditable from being active at the same time.
  • Now, rows can be selected even when cell editing is enabled, providing greater flexibility.

• Added Configurable Sort Cycle Order
  • FlutterTablePlus now includes a sortCycle property to define the sequence of sorting states (ascending, descending, none).
  • The default cycle is ascending -> descending -> none.
  • This allows for more flexible sorting behaviors, such as disabling the none state or changing the order.

• Added Hint Text and Style for Editable Cells
  • TablePlusColumn now includes an optional hintText property to display placeholder text in editable TextFields.
  • TablePlusEditableTheme now includes an optional hintStyle property to customize the style of the hint text.
• Added Row Double-Tap and Secondary-Tap Callbacks
  • FlutterTablePlus now provides onRowDoubleTap and onRowSecondaryTap callbacks for row-level gesture detection.
  • These callbacks are active when isSelectable is true and isEditable is false.
  • CustomInkWell now correctly handles onDoubleTap and onSecondaryTap events without interfering with onTap.
  • Ensured CustomInkWell's internal state is preserved during setState by adding key: ValueKey(rowId).

• Update README.md

• Added Cell Editing Feature

Features #

• Editable Cells: Introduced isEditable property in FlutterTablePlus to enable or disable cell editing.
• Column-Specific Editing: Added editable property to TablePlusColumn to control which columns can be edited.
• Cell Change Callback: Implemented onCellChanged to notify when a cell's value is updated.
• Theming for Editing: Added TablePlusEditableTheme to customize the appearance of cells in editing mode (background color, text style, borders, etc.).
• Keyboard Support: Press Enter to save changes or Escape to cancel editing. Editing also stops when the cell loses focus.

• Initial release of flutter_table_plus

Features #

• Highly Customizable Table: Provides a flexible and efficient table widget.
• Synchronized Scrolling: Horizontal and vertical scrolling is synchronized between the header and body.
• Theming: Extensive customization of table appearance through TablePlusTheme, including headers, rows, scrollbars, and selection styles.
• Column Sorting: Supports sorting columns in ascending, descending, or unsorted order. The sorting logic is handled by the parent widget.
• Row Selection: Allows for single or multiple row selection with checkboxes.
• Column Reordering: Supports drag-and-drop column reordering.
• Custom Cell Builders: Allows for custom widget rendering in cells for complex data representation.
• Type-Safe Column Builder: Use TableColumnsBuilder to safely create and manage column order.
