selectAll

Since: Select 1.0.0

Select all items in the table based on the current item select mode.
Please note - this property requires the Select extension for DataTables.

Description

The selectAll button will simply select all items in the table, based on the current item selection mode (select.items()) - e.g. if the item selection mode is rows, all rows in the table will be selected when this button is activated.

Examples

DataTables initialisation: Show select all and select none buttons with language options in the DataTables language object:

$('#myTable').DataTable( {
	dom: 'Blfrtip',
	buttons: [
		'selectAll',
		'selectNone'
	],
	language: {
		buttons: {
			selectAll: "Select all items",
			selectNone: "Select none"
		}
	}
} );

Using a selector modifier to select only rows matched by the current filter (first button), and those on the first page (second button).:

$('#myTable').DataTable( {
	dom: 'Blfrtip',
	buttons: [
		{
			text: 'Select filter applied - object',
			extend: 'selectAll',
			selectorModifier: {
				search: 'applied'
			}
		},
		{
			text: 'Select current page - function',
			extend: 'selectAll',
			selectorModifier: function () {
				return {
					page: 'current'
				}
			}
		}
		'selectNone'
	]
} );
