# DataTable Component - Usage Guide

This DataTable component follows the shadcn-vue architecture and uses TanStack Table v8 for powerful table functionality.

## Features

- ✅ Client-side and server-side pagination
- ✅ Sorting (single column)
- ✅ Filtering/Search
- ✅ Row selection
- ✅ Column visibility toggle
- ✅ Customizable column definitions
- ✅ Loading states
- ✅ Empty states
- ✅ Flexible toolbar
- ✅ Cell-level customization via slots
- ✅ Responsive design
- ✅ Laravel Inertia integration

## Basic Usage

### Simple Format (Recommended for basic tables)

```vue
<script setup>
import DataTable from '@/Components/DataTable/DataTableNew2.vue';

const columns = [
  { key: 'id', label: 'ID', sortable: true },
  { key: 'name', label: 'Name', sortable: true },
  { key: 'email', label: 'Email', sortable: true },
  { key: 'status', label: 'Status' },
];

const data = ref([
  { id: 1, name: 'John Doe', email: 'john@example.com', status: 'Active' },
  { id: 2, name: 'Jane Smith', email: 'jane@example.com', status: 'Inactive' },
]);
</script>

<template>
  <DataTable :columns="columns" :data="data" />
</template>
```

### Advanced Format (Full TanStack Table power)

```vue
<script setup>
import { h } from 'vue';
import DataTable from '@/Components/DataTable/DataTableNew2.vue';
import { Badge } from '@/Components/ui/badge';
import { columns } from './columns'; // Import from separate file

const data = ref([...]);
</script>

<template>
  <DataTable :columns="columns" :data="data" />
</template>
```

See `columns-example.js` for comprehensive column definition examples.

## Client-side Example

```vue
<script setup>
import DataTable from '@/Components/DataTable/DataTableNew2.vue';

const columns = [
  { key: 'id', label: 'ID', sortable: true },
  { key: 'name', label: 'Name', sortable: true },
  { key: 'email', label: 'Email', sortable: true },
];

const data = ref([
  // Your data here
]);
</script>

<template>
  <DataTable
    :columns="columns"
    :data="data"
    :page-size="10"
    filter-column="email"
    filter-placeholder="Filter emails..."
    enable-row-selection
  />
</template>
```

## Server-side Example (Laravel Inertia)

### Controller
```php
public function index(Request $request)
{
    $query = Client::query();
    
    // Search
    if ($request->search) {
        $query->where('name', 'like', "%{$request->search}%")
              ->orWhere('email', 'like', "%{$request->search}%");
    }
    
    // Sort
    if ($request->sort && $request->direction) {
        $query->orderBy($request->sort, $request->direction);
    }
    
    $clients = $query->paginate($request->per_page ?? 10);
    
    return Inertia::render('Clients/Index', [
        'clients' => $clients,
        'filters' => $request->only(['search', 'sort', 'direction']),
    ]);
}
```

### Vue Component
```vue
<script setup>
import DataTable from '@/Components/DataTable/DataTableNew2.vue';

const props = defineProps({
  clients: Object,
  filters: Object,
});

const columns = [
  { key: 'id', label: 'ID', sortable: true },
  { key: 'name', label: 'Name', sortable: true },
  { key: 'email', label: 'Email', sortable: true },
];
</script>

<template>
  <DataTable
    :columns="columns"
    :data="clients.data"
    :meta="clients.meta"
    :search="filters.search"
    :sort="{ key: filters.sort, direction: filters.direction }"
    route-name="clients.index"
    filter-column="email"
    filter-placeholder="Search clients..."
    :only-props="['clients']"
  />
</template>
```

## Custom Cell Rendering

### Using Slots
```vue
<template>
  <DataTable :columns="columns" :data="data">
    <!-- Custom cell for status column -->
    <template #cell-status="{ value, row }">
      <Badge :variant="value === 'active' ? 'default' : 'secondary'">
        {{ value }}
      </Badge>
    </template>
    
    <!-- Custom cell for actions -->
    <template #cell-actions="{ row }">
      <Button @click="editRow(row)">Edit</Button>
    </template>
  </DataTable>
</template>
```

### Using Column Definitions
```javascript
import { h } from 'vue';
import { Badge } from '@/Components/ui/badge';

export const columns = [
  {
    accessorKey: 'status',
    header: 'Status',
    cell: ({ row }) => {
      const status = row.getValue('status');
      return h(Badge, { 
        variant: status === 'active' ? 'default' : 'secondary' 
      }, () => status);
    },
  },
];
```

## Custom Toolbar

The new toolbar is simplified and follows shadcn-vue patterns:

```vue
<template>
  <DataTable 
    :columns="columns" 
    :data="data"
    filter-column="email"
    filter-placeholder="Search emails..."
  >
    <!-- Add custom filter controls -->
    <template #toolbar-filters="{ table }">
      <select 
        @change="table.getColumn('status')?.setFilterValue($event.target.value)"
        class="h-8 rounded-md border px-3"
      >
        <option value="">All Status</option>
        <option value="active">Active</option>
        <option value="inactive">Inactive</option>
      </select>
    </template>
    
    <!-- Add custom action buttons -->
    <template #toolbar-actions="{ table }">
      <Button @click="exportData">Export</Button>
      <Button @click="addNew">Add New</Button>
    </template>
  </DataTable>
</template>
```

Or completely replace the toolbar:

```vue
<template>
  <DataTable :columns="columns" :data="data" :show-toolbar="false">
    <template #toolbar="{ table }">
      <div class="flex items-center justify-between mb-4">
        <Input
          :model-value="table.getColumn('email')?.getFilterValue()"
          @update:model-value="table.getColumn('email')?.setFilterValue($event)"
          placeholder="Filter emails..."
          class="max-w-sm"
        />
        <div class="flex gap-2">
          <Button @click="exportData">Export</Button>
          <DataTableViewOptions :table="table" />
        </div>
      </div>
    </template>
  </DataTable>
</template>
```

## Row Selection

```vue
<script setup>
import { ref } from 'vue';
import DataTable from '@/Components/DataTable/DataTableNew2.vue';

const selectedRows = ref([]);

function handleSelectionChange(keys) {
  selectedRows.value = keys;
  console.log('Selected rows:', keys);
}
</script>

<template>
  <DataTable
    :columns="columns"
    :data="data"
    enable-row-selection
    @selection:change="handleSelectionChange"
  />
  
  <div v-if="selectedRows.length">
    Selected {{ selectedRows.length }} row(s)
  </div>
</template>
```

## Row Click Handler

```vue
<script setup>
function handleRowClick(row, index) {
  console.log('Clicked row:', row);
  // Navigate or perform action
  router.visit(route('clients.show', row.id));
}
</script>

<template>
  <DataTable
    :columns="columns"
    :data="data"
    @row:click="handleRowClick"
  />
</template>
```

## Tips

1. **Column Keys**: Always use consistent keys/accessorKeys across your data
2. **Server-side**: Always provide `meta` and `routeName` props together
3. **Performance**: For large datasets, use server-side pagination
4. **Styling**: Use column `class` property for custom styling
5. **Slots**: Prefer slots for complex cell rendering over h() functions

## Migration from Old DataTable

### Before (Old API)
```vue
<DataTable
  :rows="clients.data"
  :columns="columns"
  :meta="clients.meta"
/>
```

### After (New API)
```vue
<DataTableNew2
  :data="clients.data"
  :columns="columns"
  :meta="clients.meta"
  route-name="clients.index"
/>
```

Main changes:
- `rows` → `data`
- Added `route-name` prop for server-side
- More consistent prop naming
- Better TypeScript support
- More flexible column definitions
