# AshTable
This is a sortable, paginated table component for Ash resources or queries
## Status
- [X] Sort by attribute
- [X] Sort by relation (using function passed to column)
- [X] Pagination
## Usage
Here's an example taken from the test_bed:
```elixir
defmodule TestBedWeb.PostsLive.Index do
use TestBedWeb, :live_view
def render(assigns) do
~H"""
<.live_component id="posts_table" limit={10} offset={0} sort={{"id", :asc}} module={AshTable.Table} query={TestBed.Blog.Post}>
<:col :let={post} label="Id" sort_key="id"><%= post.id %></:col>
<:col :let={post} label="Title" sort_key="title">
<%= post.title %>
</:col>
<:col :let={post} label="Author" apply_sort={&sort_by_author/2} sort_key="author.name">
<%= if post.author, do: post.author.name %>
</:col>
</.live_component>
"""
end
require Ash.Sort
defp sort_by_author(query, direction) do
Ash.Query.sort(query, {Ash.Sort.expr_sort(author.name), direction})
end
end
```
In this case the `TestBed.Blog.Post` resource has a title, content, and belongs to Author which has a name. The table is paginated, and sortable by Title and Author name.
Note use of the `apply_sort` being passed into the `:col`. This is needed for sorting by related properties due to how Ash works, or til I better understand it and find a simpler way :) The `sort_key` assign is still required so that the correct column is identified when the sort event fires.
## Running the test_bed example project
```
cd test_bed
mix deps.get
mix ash.setup
mix phx.server
```
## Future
Currently there is very little styling. The goal would be to allow a good default, but great flexiblity. Harcoding a dependency on Tailwind or other css frameworks is not desirable, but allowing the user to decide to use one would be great.
