TableViewElement

A TableViewElement writes a <table> element to the output.

Element and builder

Examples

Creating a table with header, body & footer

Given the following builder configuration

BootstrapUiBuilders
    .table()
    .header(
        BootstrapUiBuilders.tableHeader().add(
            BootstrapUiBuilders.tableHeaderCell().text( "Name" )
        ).add(
            BootstrapUiBuilders.tableHeaderCell().text( "Value" )
        )
    )
    .body(
        BootstrapUiBuilders.tableBody().add(
            BootstrapUiBuilders.tableRow().add(
                BootstrapUiBuilders.tableCell().text( "Height" )
            ).add(
                BootstrapUiBuilders.tableCell().text( "128" )
            )
        )
    )
    .footer(
        BootstrapUiBuilders.tableFooter().add(
            BootstrapUiBuilders.tableRow().add(
                BootstrapUiBuilders.tableCell()
                    .columnSpan( 2 )
                    .text( "Table footer" )
                    .heading( true )
            )
        )
    )
    .build();

The following markup would be rendered:

<table class="table">
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th>Name</th>
            <th>Value</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td>Height</td>
            <td>128</td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
    <tfoot>
        <tr>
            <th colspan="2">Table footer</th>
        </tr>
    </tfoot>
</table>
