Vue PivotGrid Component
The PivotGrid component for Vue is a lightweight and powerful data visualization widget.
It allows visualization of multi-dimensional and hierarchical data structures.
It also ships with a Pivot Table Designer widget. The Pivot Table Designer allows you to visually configure the pivot columns, rows, aggregated values and multiple different settings.
You can also configure pivot rows and columns text alignment settings and various text formatting options on the pivot cells.
Before you start with the Pivot Grid widget, you should be familiar with pivot tables and understand when to use regular data grids to display table data,
and when to switch to the pivot grid and pivot tables. The following article is a good entry-level introduction to pivot tables: Wikipedia: Pivot table
Prerequisites
Refer to Vue Getting Started before you start with this help topic.
Configuration
After you have created your App.vue file, here is how you should structure it:
The PivotGrid component for Vue requires the following import:
Add the jqxPivotGrid component to the components section of the the Vue class:
Template
The App.vue has a <template> structural tag where we determine the application structure.
There we will also set the tags for the new components - <JqxPivotGrid/>
Properties
The properties of the <JqxPivotGrid/> component are defined in the data member of the Vue class.
We should put them in the return object of the data function:
Events
The events in Vue are set as an attribute with @ prefix, for example:
All events that are bound to a component are implemented in the methods member of the Vue class.
Methods
To use a component's method we should have its reference. In Vue we refer to a component by the special $refs property.
Before that we need to add the desired name reference to that component:
<JqxPivotGrid ref="pivotgrid"></JqxPivotGrid>
Here how you can use a component's method:
this.$refs.pivotgrid.getPivotCells();
If we want to add additional methods we should also implement them in the methods member.
In case we need to do some precalculation or something else before the components are rendered, we should use the beforeCreate member.
In this case:
If you have followed the above steps, you App.vue file would look like this:
