DataTables releases feed http://www.datatables.net/ en-us Software release information for DataTables and its extensions DataTables 1.12.1 released We've found a few bugs since the 1.12.0 related specifically to the new locale support, which are addressed in this release. There are also a couple of other fixes included - see below for full details.

Fixes:

  • Fix: Bootstrap (3/4/5) integration with table-sm and the sorting icons for 1.12 - icons would overlap
  • Fix: Remove IDs from cloned elements when scrolling is enabled
  • Fix: Don't had a prefix / postfix to the number rendering helper when an empty string or null is used
  • Fix: Error was being thrown when the browser's language was set to a locale which does not use a thousands indicator for 1000.1 when formatted (Polish for example).
  • Fix: IE11 was throwing an error with the new locale rendering for numbers. Default to US English for legacy browsers.

]]> Thu, 12 May 2022 15:09:18 GMT http://www.datatables.net/#467 http://www.datatables.net/ DataTables 1.12.0 released This release of DataTables has heavy focus on making internationalisation easier and modernising DataTables' stylesheets.

First up we have the new DataTable.datetime() and DataTable.render.datetime() functions to provide built in support for non-ISO 8601 date/time formats (both Moment.js and Luxon are supported - one of them must be loaded to allow these methods to operate).

Next is automatic locale formatting for numbers and date times, through the default helpers. Previously you would have to manually specify the format you wish the data to appear in, now, the default is to format it to the locale for your end user.

For styling, one of the most noticeable changes is an to update how the sorting indicators in the header work. Previously we loaded png background images - this has been replaces with UTF8 characters and pseudo elements.

A less noticeable change (until you start working with row colours) is that we now use an inset box-shadow for row and cell tinting rather than a background colour. This makes is much easier to set colours on your data without needing lots of custom CSS to handle features such as FixedColumns, row striping and sort column highlighting.

These two CSS changes are used across all styling libraries.

Finally, this release also waves goodbye to the IE6/7 hacks we had in our CSS. While DataTables will still operate in those browsers, they are no longer supported.

New

  • Sorting icons now are UTF-8 character based rather than using external images and are consistent across the different styling libraries
  • Automatic number rendering for locale with number rendering type
  • Local language strings can be defined along with language.url and will now take priority
  • DataTable.datetime() format detector and DataTable.render.datetime() formatter for improved date and time handling built into DataTables core. Works with either Moment.js or Luxon.
  • columnDefs.target option which is an alias of columnDefs.targets.
  • Processing indicator updated to use a CSS animation indicating that something is happening
  • nowrap class on the table will now operate across all style frameworks, preventing text wrapping
  • Default text-align left for header and footer cells
  • pluck() now supports Javascript dotted object notation to read nested data

Updates

  • Consistent formatting of examples code (Prettier)
  • language.processing default updated to be an empty string
  • Default styling now has table header and footer text left aligned
  • Change of how row stripes and row selection colours operate
  • Improve API usage in index column example

Fixes

  • Merging class names from multiple targets to a single column
  • Bulma integration would give an error when clicking on the pagination's ellipsis icon
  • Remove star hack to make CSS fully valid (remove IE6/7 hacks)
  • Typescript: Missing column().search() overload for setting a search value on a column
  • Allow DOM manipulation while a table is being destroyed
  • Fix issue with page length select element not being set when a state is reloaded
  • Bootstrap v5.1.2 and above table-striped compatibility
  • Speed improvement to reduce the number of column visibility calculations
  • Bootstrap v5.1.2 and above compatibility

Fixes

  • Sorting images no longer required
  • TableTools support - it is long since dead

Updates

  • Migrating to Fomantic-UI, which is a maintained fork of Semantic-UI, which is no longer being developed

]]> Thu, 12 May 2022 11:23:25 GMT http://www.datatables.net/#463 http://www.datatables.net/ FixedColumns 4.1.0 released Full integration with DataTables 1.12's row tinting addressing a number of colouring issues for rows and cells with FixedColumns. Also a significant performance improvement when showing and hiding columns.

Updates

  • rtl detection is now done on the body element
  • Reworking how selection colouring works with DataTables. DataTables core now uses an insert box-shadow which makes simplifies row colouring significantly.

Fixes

  • Performance: FixedColumn styles should only be added on column visibility change if the recalculate flag is set
  • rtl layout wasn't correctly positioning cells in the header for fixed columns
  • jQuery UI styling had transparent cells for fixed columns without ordering
  • Bootstrap integration didn't work correctly with 5.1.2 and Select. Note this needs an update to Select as well.

]]> Thu, 12 May 2022 11:12:03 GMT http://www.datatables.net/#461 http://www.datatables.net/ KeyTable 2.7.0 released Update for KeyTable to fully support DataTables' 1.12 use of an inset box-shadow for row tinting.

Updates

  • Migrating to Fomantic-UI, which is a maintained fork of Semantic-UI, which is no longer being developed

Fixes

  • ColReorder compatibility - focus visually moved with a reordered column, but didn't actually update internally, so arrow keys immediately after would result in incorrect focus and possibly two cells showing as focused.
  • Need to save the state even when state save is not enabled for StateRestore compatibility.

]]> Thu, 12 May 2022 10:26:09 GMT http://www.datatables.net/#453 http://www.datatables.net/ Editor 2.0.7 released Just one small change on the client-side in this release, and that only for the trial (which wasn't working when used with WebPack). Instead, the main focus here is the addition of support for the new SearchPanes 2 release which adds support for cascade when used with server-side processing. The PHP, NodeJS and .NET libraries now full support this mode.

.NET

  • New: Support for SearchPanes 2 server-side processing with cascade
  • New: Database.CommandTimeout parameter which is passed on to the commands created and executed by the Database class. Can be used to specify a time limit for a query to complete.
  • Fix: Allow SearchPanes to take function as second argument of left join
  • Fix: When server-side processing an no ordering is specified an error would occur since the order parameter is not sent from the server-side

NodeJS

]]> Mon, 28 Feb 2022 15:13:18 GMT http://www.datatables.net/#452 http://www.datatables.net/ DataTables 1.11.5 released This patch release of DataTables core focuses on addressing performance issues related to how the child row visibility state is saved. This is a feature that was introduced in 1.11 and could be seen when state was saved very frequently (i.e. showing all child rows at the same time).

Also introduced in this release is a prototype ESM (ES Module) file for loading DataTables via an import statement. This is still early work, but feedback is welcome.

  • Fix: Make child row state saving async to allow batching of state saving information.
  • Fix: Performance was degraded on draw due to the saving of child row status
  • Fix: Correctly set header row height to 0 regardless of box-sizing
  • Fix - examples: Demo SSP class updated to address error in the number of parameters being bound when using the complex class.
  • Fix: Colon not being escaped in child row ids for statesave
  • Prototype: ES module support for DataTables core
