What if there is a way that you could capture all the benefits of Angular Material, but customize the behavior and styling in an unopinionated way?
Well, that's exactly what Angular's component development kit does.
In today's video, you'll learn how to build a reactive CDK data table that implements its own custom behaviors and also uses Bootstrap could pour for its CSS styling?

And the code for this video is produced by Zach DeRose who is a seen your team lead working on Angular over at Swampfox Inc?
Make sure to check out his full article on Medium because it goes into some advanced stuff that I don't cover could hear such as searching, sorting, and applying styles on a cell by cell basis?
I'm starting out from just a regular Angular 6 app, and the first thing I'll do is install the component development kit which is at angular /cdk?
Then I'll generate a component called table.
From there, I'll jump over to the app module and we'll want to import the data table from Angular CDK, then add the CDK table module to the imports array.
Can?
The first table we'll build is pretty basic and ugly, but what it's doing under the hood is pretty powerful.
And without the CDK, this would take a lot more code than it does in this video.
Go?
I'll be working with some dummy data throughout this video, which I have saved in this data dot ts file.
First, we have an array of column names, which just define the names of the columns in the table?
And then we have the actual data which is a map of various heroes, and each hero has a set of properties that match these column names?
So, basically, this simulates some initial data that you might pull from a back end database or API.
Can now let's jump into the component and start putting together this table.
I'm going to go pretty slow through this code because I wanna talk about behavior subjects can observeables because they're very powerful structures when working with tables?
A behavior subject is really useful when you have a value that you want to manually change over time.
They work just like an observable, but they always have a current value and you can push new values to them?
And you can always get the current value in place, switch means you kind of have the best of both worlds between observables and just regular JavaScript?
What's also really cool is that you can use your behavior subject as a single source truth that gets mapped to other observables?
For example, we'll be able to map this hero's dictionary down to an array of data that we can loop over in our data cable for each row?
And we'll build up to some more advanced use cases with that concept later in the video.
So if you want to take your single source of truth can map it to just a regular observable?
You can do that by just calling pipe and then adding some operators to structure it in the way that you need for the UI.
In this case, we just want to map the dictionary down to an array of values, which we can do with Object dot values.
So now we have an observable array of data that we can loop over in the table?
You may have noticed that I was clicking a button in the table that was changing the values for a given row.
That's also made possible by the reactive nature of behavior subjects and observables.
We can grab the value of our behavior subject by simply calling value on it.
And because it's an object, we can then grab the hero name that's being clicked on and update its values.
To level up the hero, we'll simply increment each one of its properties by 1.
From there, we can compose a new object by using the spread syntax and taking that current value from the behavior subject, then overwrite the value for the clicked hero?
So that'll be the next value for our behavior subject and everything else that depends on it will react accordingly.
And we can simply push that into the stream by calling next?
Now we can jump into the component HTML, and we'll see that the CDK gives us a whole bunch of different could divs that we can use to bind our data to the table?
The most important one is the data source which is that observable that we mapped our behavior subject to in the TypeScript.
The next thing we'll do is define the header row.
And because we already have an array of the column names, we can just pass that in as the CDK header row definition.
After that, we will make a definition for each actual row in the table.
And that's going to automatically loop over every item in our data source array.
Came?
Now the last major step is to define the logic for each cell in the row.
You could loop over each cell or you can define them 1 by 1.
Since we have some custom behavior, we'll just go ahead and declare each one of our cells 1 by 1.
All we have to do is define what the header should look like.
Then we have access to the underlying data object, which is in the template variable of row.
So this cell will have a header of hero name, and then the actual value will be the row name?
Then we'll just go ahead and repeat this logic over and over again until we get to the actual cell that has the clickable button.
The special thing about this cell is that we're not actually displaying a value, but instead we'll have a clickable button that will trigger that level up event handler that we define in the TypeScript.
To level up a hero, we need to know its name, which we have access to through the row template variable, which we can then pass in to our level up method as the argument.
And just like that, we have a data table that relies on a single source of truth for its input, which is a pattern that you really want if you're going to scale up in complex could be?
Just imagine trying to apply the same pattern in plain JavaScript or jQuery.
You'd have a lot more code to write.
But for your end users, this is still a pretty ugly table.
Let's see how we might add some better styling to it.
For that, we'll use Bootstrap 4, but you could use any other CSS framework or your own styles completely.
You can grab the CSS for Bootstrap from the website and then paste it into the head of the document in the index HTML file in Angular?
Then back in the Bootstrap docs, you'll see a variety of different styles for tables.
Pick whichever one you like, and you'll also want a style for the button in that table as well.
So as you might imagine, adding styles to our CDK table is easy as any other HTML table.
We simply add the class name, and we're good to go.
So now we have a table that behaves like Angular Material but looks like Bootstrap.
But I wanna take this a step further, and I want to highlight the hero with the highest and lowest health rating?
And I want that style to be updated reactively whenever the values change in this table.
Let's see how we can leverage our existing behavior subject to handle this for us.
I'm also going to install the max by and min by methods from Lodash to make this code a little bit more concise.
Guys?
These functions are really useful if you have an array of objects and you need to calculate some statistics about a certain property on those objects, which in this case, we want to find the heroes with the min and max health?
From there, we'll go ahead and define a new observable called min max, and this will be tied to our hero source behavior subject.
But this time, we want to map it down to just the 2 heroes, 1 with the min and 1 with the max health.
So what we're doing here is computing a value based on a single source of truth that will update reactively.
Inside of map, we can simply use Lodash to find the hero with the max health and then a hero with the min health?
And then we'll just return the names of those 2 heroes so we can use them in our HTML.
Now Angular has a built in ng class directive that we can use to easily update the styles based on this logic.
We pass ng class an object where the key of that object is the CSS class that we want to apply?
This class is from Bootstrap, which is BG success, which will give the row a green highlight, and then we'll unwrap the min max observable.
And if the max equals this row name, then we'll go ahead and highlight it.
Then we'll do the same exact ping for the min value, except this time we'll apply the bg danger, which will give it a red highlight?
And that's all there is to it.
We now have reactive CSS is being applied to our data table?
If your tables have huge amounts of data, then you'll probably need to paginate it.
So let's look into how we can further leverage RxJS to make a reactive pagination system?
To simplify the UI elements, I'm going to use ng bootstrap, but you could definitely do this from scratch as well.
First will install it via npm, then go into the app module and add it to the imports array there?
It gives us access to a pagination component, and we just need to pass it a few input variables to make it work?
It needs to know the total size of our collection, which is just the length of our data source array.
Then it needs to know how many items we wanna show on each page.
It also needs to know the current page, which will also be a behavior subject when we get to the TypeScript.
And lastly, it needs an event handler, so when the user clicks on a new page, it updates to the correct page.
And a little trick when you're using a behavior subject is instead of writing an event handler, you can just call current page next with that event as long as the event is what you actually need to send in the stream.
And the last change we'll make is set the data source to a new observable called data on pages, which is a slice of the actual values that we wanna show.
So we'll need to add a couple of new properties to our component to make all this work.
The first one is the current page which is a behavior subject, and it's a behavior subject because we want to react to it and we also want to change it dynamically?
From there, we have a data on page observable which will react to changes in the data source of heroes and also the current page.
And lastly, the page size, which is just a number.
The hardest part is defining the slice of data that we want to show for each page.
We need to react to page changes?
So we'll go ahead and pipe an observable that's based off the current page behavior subject.
But the actual data source is the hero's behavior subject so we can use the switch map operator to switch to that data source?
So at this point we know the current page as well as the array of heroes and we just need to map it down to a slice to display on that page.
We can figure out which items to display on the page by taking that current page value, subtracting 1, and then multiplying it by the page size?
That's the starting index.
Then the ending index is just that starting index plus the page size?
And those are the 2 arguments that we'll use to slice the pay?
If we go back to our data table, you'll see that it's only displaying 2 items per page, but it's also maintaining the styling logic that we set up in the previous step?
And again, this is possible because we're using a single data source and having everything else react to it accordingly.
I'm gonna go ahead and wrap things up there.

From there, we have a data on page observable which will react to changes in the data source of heroes and also the current page. And lastly, the page size, which is just a number. The hardest part is defining the slice of data that we want to show for each page.

We need to react to page changes? So we'll go ahead and pipe an observable that's based off the current page behavior subject. But the actual data source is the hero's behavior subject so we can use the switch map operator to switch to that data source? So at this point we know the current page as well as the array of heroes and we just need to map it down to a slice to display on that page.
We can figure out which items to display on the page by taking that current page value, subtracting 1, and then multiplying it by the page size? That's the starting index. Then the ending index is just that starting index plus the page size? And those are the 2 arguments that we'll use to slice the pay?

If we go back to our data table, you'll see that it's only displaying 2 items per page, but it's also maintaining the styling logic that we set up in the previous step? And again, this is possible because we're using a single data source and having everything else react to it accordingly.

What if there is a way that you could capture all the benefits of Angular Material, but customize the behavior and styling in an unopinionated way? Well, that's exactly what Angular's component development kit does. In today's video, you'll learn how to build a reactive CDK data table that implements its own custom behaviors and also uses Bootstrap could pour for its CSS styling? If you're new to the channel, make sure to like and subscribe. And the code for this video is produced by Zach DeRose who is a seen your team lead working on Angular over at Swampfox Inc? Make sure to check out his full article on Medium because it goes into some advanced stuff that I don't cover could hear such as searching, sorting, and applying styles on a cell by cell basis? I'm starting out from just a regular Angular 6 app, and the first thing I'll do is install the component development kit which is at angular /cdk? Then I'll generate a component called table. From there, I'll jump over to the app module and we'll want to import the data table from Angular CDK, then add the CDK table module to the imports array. Can? The first table we'll build is pretty basic and ugly, but what it's doing under the hood is pretty powerful. And without the CDK, this would take a lot more code than it does in this video. Go? I'll be working with some dummy data throughout this video, which I have saved in this data dot ts file. First, we have an array of column names, which just define the names of the columns in the table? And then we have the actual data which is a map of various heroes, and each hero has a set of properties that match these column names? So, basically, this simulates some initial data that you might pull from a back end database or API. Can now let's jump into the component and start putting together this table. I'm going to go pretty slow through this code because I wanna talk about behavior subjects can observeables because they're very powerful structures when working with tables? A behavior subject is really useful when you have a value that you want to manually change over time. They work just like an observable, but they always have a current value and you can push new values to them? And you can always get the current value in place, switch means you kind of have the best of both worlds between observables and just regular JavaScript? What's also really cool is that you can use your behavior subject as a single source truth that gets mapped to other observables? For example, we'll be able to map this hero's dictionary down to an array of data that we can loop over in our data cable for each row? And we'll build up to some more advanced use cases with that concept later in the video. So if you want to take your single source of truth can map it to just a regular observable? You can do that by just calling pipe and then adding some operators to structure it in the way that you need for the UI. In this case, we just want to map the dictionary down to an array of values, which we can do with Object dot values. So now we have an observable array of data that we can loop over in the table? You may have noticed that I was clicking a button in the table that was changing the values for a given row. That's also made possible by the reactive nature of behavior subjects and observables. We can grab the value of our behavior subject by simply calling value on it. And because it's an object, we can then grab the hero name that's being clicked on and update its values. To level up the hero, we'll simply increment each one of its properties by 1. From there, we can compose a new object by using the spread syntax and taking that current value from the behavior subject, then overwrite the value for the clicked hero? So that'll be the next value for our behavior subject and everything else that depends on it will react accordingly. And we can simply push that into the stream by calling next? Now we can jump into the component HTML, and we'll see that the CDK gives us a whole bunch of different could divs that we can use to bind our data to the table? The most important one is the data source which is that observable that we mapped our behavior subject to in the TypeScript. The next thing we'll do is define the header row. And because we already have an array of the column names, we can just pass that in as the CDK header row definition. After that, we will make a definition for each actual row in the table. And that's going to automatically loop over every item in our data source array. Came? Now the last major step is to define the logic for each cell in the row. You could loop over each cell or you can define them 1 by 1. Since we have some custom behavior, we'll just go ahead and declare each one of our cells 1 by 1. All we have to do is define what the header should look like. Then we have access to the underlying data object, which is in the template variable of row. So this cell will have a header of hero name, and then the actual value will be the row name? Then we'll just go ahead and repeat this logic over and over again until we get to the actual cell that has the clickable button. The special thing about this cell is that we're not actually displaying a value, but instead we'll have a clickable button that will trigger that level up event handler that we define in the TypeScript. To level up a hero, we need to know its name, which we have access to through the row template variable, which we can then pass in to our level up method as the argument. And just like that, we have a data table that relies on a single source of truth for its input, which is a pattern that you really want if you're going to scale up in complex could be? Just imagine trying to apply the same pattern in plain JavaScript or jQuery. You'd have a lot more code to write. But for your end users, this is still a pretty ugly table. Let's see how we might add some better styling to it. For that, we'll use Bootstrap 4, but you could use any other CSS framework or your own styles completely. You can grab the CSS for Bootstrap from the website and then paste it into the head of the document in the index HTML file in Angular? Then back in the Bootstrap docs, you'll see a variety of different styles for tables. Pick whichever one you like, and you'll also want a style for the button in that table as well. So as you might imagine, adding styles to our CDK table is easy as any other HTML table. We simply add the class name, and we're good to go. So now we have a table that behaves like Angular Material but looks like Bootstrap. But I wanna take this a step further, and I want to highlight the hero with the highest and lowest health rating? And I want that style to be updated reactively whenever the values change in this table. Let's see how we can leverage our existing behavior subject to handle this for us. I'm also going to install the max by and min by methods from Lodash to make this code a little bit more concise. Guys? These functions are really useful if you have an array of objects and you need to calculate some statistics about a certain property on those objects, which in this case, we want to find the heroes with the min and max health? From there, we'll go ahead and define a new observable called min max, and this will be tied to our hero source behavior subject. But this time, we want to map it down to just the 2 heroes, 1 with the min and 1 with the max health. So what we're doing here is computing a value based on a single source of truth that will update reactively. Inside of map, we can simply use Lodash to find the hero with the max health and then a hero with the min health? And then we'll just return the names of those 2 heroes so we can use them in our HTML. Now Angular has a built in ng class directive that we can use to easily update the styles based on this logic. We pass ng class an object where the key of that object is the CSS class that we want to apply? This class is from Bootstrap, which is BG success, which will give the row a green highlight, and then we'll unwrap the min max observable. And if the max equals this row name, then we'll go ahead and highlight it. Then we'll do the same exact ping for the min value, except this time we'll apply the bg danger, which will give it a red highlight? And that's all there is to it. We now have reactive CSS is being applied to our data table? If your tables have huge amounts of data, then you'll probably need to paginate it. So let's look into how we can further leverage RxJS to make a reactive pagination system? To simplify the UI elements, I'm going to use ng bootstrap, but you could definitely do this from scratch as well. First will install it via npm, then go into the app module and add it to the imports array there? It gives us access to a pagination component, and we just need to pass it a few input variables to make it work? It needs to know the total size of our collection, which is just the length of our data source array. Then it needs to know how many items we wanna show on each page. It also needs to know the current page, which will also be a behavior subject when we get to the TypeScript. And lastly, it needs an event handler, so when the user clicks on a new page, it updates to the correct page. And a little trick when you're using a behavior subject is instead of writing an event handler, you can just call current page next with that event as long as the event is what you actually need to send in the stream. And the last change we'll make is set the data source to a new observable called data on pages, which is a slice of the actual values that we wanna show. So we'll need to add a couple of new properties to our component to make all this work. The first one is the current page which is a behavior subject, and it's a behavior subject because we want to react to it and we also want to change it dynamically? From there, we have a data on page observable which will react to changes in the data source of heroes and also the current page. And lastly, the page size, which is just a number. The hardest part is defining the slice of data that we want to show for each page. We need to react to page changes? So we'll go ahead and pipe an observable that's based off the current page behavior subject. But the actual data source is the hero's behavior subject so we can use the switch map operator to switch to that data source? So at this point we know the current page as well as the array of heroes and we just need to map it down to a slice to display on that page. We can figure out which items to display on the page by taking that current page value, subtracting 1, and then multiplying it by the page size? That's the starting index. Then the ending index is just that starting index plus the page size? And those are the 2 arguments that we'll use to slice the pay? If we go back to our data table, you'll see that it's only displaying 2 items per page, but it's also maintaining the styling logic that we set up in the previous step?

we
we
already

After
after
that,
that
we
we
will
will
make
make
a

for
for
each
each
actual
actual

And
and
that's
that's
going
going
to

Now
now
the
the
last

major

is
is
to
to
define

You
you
could

or
you
you
can

Since
since
we
we
have
have
some

we'll
we'll
just
just
go
go

All
all
we
we
have
have
to
to
do
do
is
is
define

what
what
the
the

Then
then
we
we
have
have

So
so
this
this
cell

will
will
have
have
a
a

of
of

and
and
then
then
the
the
actual

will
will
be

Then
then
we'll
we'll
just
just
go
go
ahead

and
and
repeat
repeat
this
this
logic

over
over
and
and
over

until
until
we
we
get
get

that
that

The
the

that
we're

These
these

if

you
you

From
from
there,
there
we'll
we'll
go
go
ahead

and
and
define

a
a

But
but
this
this
time,
time
we
we
want

to
to
map

it
it
down

just
just

So
so
what
what
we're
we're
doing
doing
here
here
is
is
computing

Inside

we
we
can
can
simply

to
to

and
and
then
then
a
a

with
with
the
the

And
and
then
then
we'll
we'll
just
just
return

the
the

If

then
then
you'll
you'll
probably
probably
need

So
so
let's
let's
look
look
into
into
how
how
we
we
can
can
further
further
leverage
leverage
RxJS

to
to

make

To
to
simplify

the
the

I'm
i'm
going
going
to
to
use
use
ng

but
but
you
you
could
could
definitely
definitely
do
do
this
this
from
from
scratch
scratch
as
as
well.
well
First
first
will
will
install
install
it
it
via
via
npm,
npm
then
then
go
go
into
into
the
the
app
app
module

and
and
add
add
it
it
to
to
the
the

there?
there
It
it
gives
gives
us
us
access
access
to
to
a
a

and
and
we
we
just
just
need
need
to
to
pass
pass
it
it
a
a
few
few
input
input
variables
variables
to
to
make
make
it
it
work?
work
It
it
needs
needs
to
to
know
know
the
the
total
total
size
size
of
of
our
our

which
which
is
is
just
just
the
the
length

of
of
our
our

Then
then
it
it
needs
needs
to
to
know
know
how
how
many
many
items
items
we
we
wanna
wanna
show
show
on
on
each
each

It
it
also
also
needs
needs
to
to
know
know
the
the
current
current

which
which
will
will
also
also
be
be
a
a
behavior

subject

when
when
we
we
get
get
to
to
the
the
TypeScript.
typescript
And
and
lastly,
lastly
it
it
needs
needs
an
an
event
event
handler,

so
so
when
when
the
the
user
user
clicks
clicks
on
on
a
a
new
new
page,
page
it
it
updates
updates
to
to
the
the
correct
correct

page
And
and
a
a
little
little
trick
trick
when
when
you're
you're
using
using
a
a
behavior
behavior
subject
subject
is
is
instead
instead
of
of
writing
writing
an
an
event
event
handler,
handler
you
you
can
can
just
just
call
call
current
current
page
page
next
next
with
with
that
that
event
event
as
as
long
long
as
as
the
the
event
event
is
is
what
what
you
you
actually
actually
need
need
to
to
send
send
in
in
the
the
stream.
stream
And
and
the
the
last
last
change
change
we'll
we'll
make
make
is
is
set
set
the
the
data
data
source
source
to
to
a
a
new
new
observable
observable
called
called
data
data
on
on
pages,
pages
which
which
is
is
a
a
slice
slice
of
of
the
the
actual
actual
values
values
that
that
we
we
wanna
wanna
show.
show
So
so
we'll
we'll
need
need
to
to
add
add
a
a
couple
couple
of
of
new
new
properties
properties
to
to
our
our
component
component
to
to
make
make
all
all
this
this
work.
work
The
the
first
first
one
one
is
is
the
the
current
current
page
page
which
which
is
is
a
a
behavior
behavior
subject,
subject
and
and
it's
it's
a
a
behavior
behavior
subject
subject
because
because
we
we
want
want
to
to
react
react
to
to
it
it
and
and
we
we
also
also
want
want
to
to
change
change
it
it
dynamically?
dynamically
From
from
there,
there
we
we
have
have
a
a
data
data
on
on
page
page
observable
observable
which
which
will
will
react
react
to
to
changes
changes
in
in
the
the
data
data
source
source
of
of
heroes
heroes
and
and
also
also
the
the
current
current
page.
page
And
and
lastly,
lastly
the
the
page
page
size,
size
which
which
is
is
just
just
a
a
number.
number
The
the
hardest
hardest
part
part
is
is
defining
defining
the
the
slice
slice
of
of
data
data
that
that
we
we
want
want
to
to
show
show
for
for
each
each
page.
page
We
we
need
need
to
to
react
react
to
to
page
page
changes?
changes
So
so
we'll
we'll
go
go
ahead
ahead
and
and
pipe
pipe
an
an
observable
observable
that's
that's
based
based
off
off
the
the
current
current
page
page
behavior
behavior
subject.
subject
But
but
the
the
actual
actual
data
data
source
source
is
is
the
the
hero's
hero's
behavior
behavior
subject
subject
so
so
we
we
can
can
use
use
the
the
switch
switch
map
map
operator
operator
to
to
switch
switch
to
to
that
that
data
data
source?
source
So
so
at
at
this
this
point
point
we
we
know
know
the
the
current
current
page
page
as
as
well
well
as
as
the
the
array
array
of
of
heroes
heroes
and
and
we
we
just
just
need
need
to
to
map
map
it
it
down
down
to
to
a
a
slice
slice
to
to
display
display
on
on
that
that

We
we
can
can
figure
figure
out
out
which
which
items

to
to
display
display
on
on
the
the

by
by
taking
taking
that
that
current
current

subtracting

and
and
then
then
multiplying
multiplying
it
it
by
by
the
the
page
page
size?

That's
that's
the
the
starting
starting
index.
index
Then
then
the
the
ending
ending
index
index
is
is
just
just
that
that
starting
starting
index
index
plus
plus
the
the
page
page
size?
size
And
and
those
those
are
are
the
the
2
2
arguments
arguments
that
that
we'll
we'll
use
use
to
to
slice
slice
the
the
pay?
pay
If
if
we
we
go
go
back
back
to
to
our
our
data
data
table,

you'll
you'll
see
see
that
that
it's
it's
only
only
displaying
displaying
2
2
items
items
per
per
page,
