Incrementor field type plug-in code
Use
This plug-in can be obtained and used in multiple different ways.
Browser
This plug-in is available on the DataTables CDN:
The plug-in will then automatically register itself against a global DataTables instance. This file can also be used if you are using an AMD loader such as Require.js.
Note that if you are using multiple plug-ins, it can be beneficial in terms of performance to combine the plug-ins into a single file and host it on your own server, rather than making multiple requests to the DataTables CDN.
NPM
The plug-ins are all available on NPM (which can also be used with Yarn or any other Javascript package manager) as part of the datatables.net-plugins package. To use this plug-in, first install the plug-ins package:
npm install datatables.net-plugins
Then import datatables.net, any other DataTables extensions you need, plus the plug-in:
import DataTable from 'datatables.net';
import 'datatables.net-plugins/editorFields/editor.incrementor.mjs';
Example
new DataTable.Editor( {
"ajax": "php/dates.php",
"table": "#example",
"fields": [ {
"label": "First name:",
"name": "first_name"
}, {
"label": "Last name:",
"name": "last_name"
}, {
"label": "Age:",
"name": "age",
"type": "incrementor"
}
]
} );
