Checkbox row selectors?
posted

Is it possible to have Checkbox column to select one or multiple rows?

Similar to this example for Angular: https://www.infragistics.com/products/ignite-ui-angular/angular/components/grid/row-selection

    Hi Aleksandar, 

    I was able to implement this through the use of template columns. This solution rely's on storing the selected state on the row information itself (isOrderSelected in my code). Here is what my code looks like

      const handleSelectAllCheckbox = (selectAllState: boolean) => {
        if (ordersGrid?.current) {
          for (
            let i = ordersGrid.current.actualDataSource.firstVisibleIndexRequested;
            i <= ordersGrid.current.actualDataSource.lastVisibleIndexRequested;
            i++
          ) {
            const item = ordersGrid.current.actualDataSource.getItemAtIndex(i);
            ordersGrid.current.selectedItems.remove(item);
            if (selectAllState) {
              ordersGrid.current.selectedItems.add(item);
            }
          }
        }
      };
    
      const orderCheckBoxHeaderCellUpdating = (header: IgrTemplateHeader, args: IgrTemplateHeaderCellUpdatingEventArgs) => {
        const content = args.content as HTMLDivElement;
        let checkBox: HTMLInputElement;
    
        let selectedFound = false;
        let nonSelectedFound = false;
    
        if (ordersGrid?.current) {
          for (
            let i = ordersGrid.current.actualDataSource.firstVisibleIndexRequested;
            i <= ordersGrid.current.actualDataSource.lastVisibleIndexRequested;
            i++
          ) {
            const item = ordersGrid.current.actualDataSource.getItemAtIndex(i);
            if (!!item?.isOrderSelected) {
              selectedFound = true;
            } else {
              nonSelectedFound = true;
            }
    
            if (selectedFound && nonSelectedFound) {
              break;
            }
          }
        }
    
        if (content.childElementCount === 0) {
          checkBox = document.createElement("input");
          checkBox.type = "checkbox";
          checkBox.onchange = (ev: Event) => {
            handleSelectAllCheckbox((ev.target as HTMLInputElement).checked);
          };
          content.appendChild(checkBox);
        } else {
          checkBox = content.children[0] as HTMLInputElement;
        }
    
        checkBox.checked = selectedFound && !nonSelectedFound;
        checkBox.indeterminate = selectedFound && nonSelectedFound;
      };
    
      const orderCheckboxCellUpdating = (column: IgrTemplateColumn, args: IgrTemplateCellUpdatingEventArgs) => {
        const content = args.content as HTMLDivElement;
        const isOrderSelected = args.cellInfo.rowItem.isOrderSelected;
        let checkBox: HTMLInputElement;
        if (content.childElementCount === 0) {
          checkBox = document.createElement("input");
          checkBox.type = "checkbox";
          content.appendChild(checkBox);
        } else {
          checkBox = content.children[0] as HTMLInputElement;
        }
    
        checkBox.checked = isOrderSelected;
      };
    
      const [orderColumns, setOrderColumns] = useState<JSX.Element[]>([]);
      const createOrderColumns = useCallback((orderColumnSettings: ColumnCollection) => {
        const orderColumns: JSX.Element[] = [];
    
        const header = new IgrTemplateHeader({});
        header.cellUpdating = orderCheckBoxHeaderCellUpdating;
    
        orderColumns.push(
          <IgrTemplateColumn
            header={header}
            field={"isOrderSelected"}
            cellUpdating={orderCheckboxCellUpdating}
            width="50"
            isColumnOptionsEnabled={false}
            isResizingEnabled={false}
            pinned={PinnedPositions.Left}
            headerText={"Selected"}
          ></IgrTemplateColumn>
        );
        
        //more columns here
        }

    Here is what it looks like when rendered:
