Sortable tables in markdown using javascript #6293
-
I want to make markdown tables sortable. I found this javascript library for this purpose: https://www.kryogenix.org/code/browser/sorttable/ I inserted the needed library in one wiki.js page in the Script tab. Then I inserted the some CSS through injection in the Theme section. table.sortable th:not(.sorttable_sorted):not(.sorttable_sorted_reverse):not(.sorttable_nosort):after {
content: " \25B4\25BE"

I solved it by using another library and another method to append a class in the table tag. Under Admin / Theme I injected this into the HTML head: <script type="text/javascript">
function addSortable() {
var tags = document.getElementsByTagName("table");
for (i = 0; i < tags.length; i++) {
tags[i].className = "sortable";
}
}
window.onload = function() {
addSortable();
};
</script> And in the HTML body I injected sortable.js Finally, this CSS injection adds some arrows next to the column titles, although I feel this needs some fine tuning: table.sortable thead {
background-color: #eee;
color: #123;
font-weight: 700;
cursor: default
}
table.sortable th:not(.sorttable_sorted):not(.sorttable_sorted_reverse):not(.sorttable_nosort):after {
content: " \25B4\25BE"
} |

You should be using the wiki.js window.boot.register('page-ready', () => {
addSortable()
}) |

With the hope that it will help others, this worked well for me with 2.5.300: Under <link href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/tofsjonas/sortable@latest/sortable.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/tofsjonas/sortable@latest/sortable.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function addSortable() {
var tags = document.getElementsByTagName("table");
for (i = 0; i < tags.length; i++) {
tags[i].className = "sortable";
}
}
window.boot.register('page-ready', () => {
addSortable()
})
</script> Should then be able to sort any table. |
