Hello to all, welcome to therichpost.com. In this post, I will tell you, Angular 7 Datatables Working Example.

Angular 7 has just launched and it is in very high in demand. Angular 7 increased his performance speed.

I am showing the data in Datatables with custom json data and also for giving good look to datatable, I have used bootstrap in it, here is the working picture:

I will hope that, this will help you in rendering json data in datatables.

Here are the working steps, you need to follow:

1. Very first, you need to run below commands to set  your Angular 7 application:

$ npm install -g @angular/cli 

$ ng new angulardatatables

$ cd angulardatatables

$ ng serve

http://localhost:4200/

2. After, it run below commands to add datatable and bootstrap into Angular Application:

npm install jquery --save

npm install datatables.net --save

npm install datatables.net-dt --save

npm install angular-datatables --save

npm install @types/jquery --save-dev

npm install @types/datatables.net --save-dev

$ npm install ngx-bootstrap bootstrap --save

3. Now add below code into your angular.json file:

...
"styles": [
              "src/styles.css",
              "node_modules/datatables.net-dt/css/jquery.dataTables.css",
              "node_modules/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css",
            ],
            "scripts": [
            "node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.js",
            "node_modules/datatables.net/js/jquery.dataTables.js",
            "node_modules/bootstrap/dist/js/bootstrap.js",
            ]
...

4. Now add code into app.module.ts file:

import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import {DataTablesModule} from 'angular-datatables';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent
  ],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    DataTablesModule
  ],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

5. Now add below code into app.component.ts file:

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.css']
})
export class AppComponent {
  public data = [
    {name: 'therichpost', email: 'therichpost@gmail.com', website:'therichpost.com'},
    {name: 'therichpost', email: 'therichpost@gmail.com', website:'therichpost.com'},
    {name: 'therichpost', email: 'therichpost@gmail.com', website:'therichpost.com'},
    {name: 'therichpost', email: 'therichpost@gmail.com', website:'therichpost.com'},
];

  title = 'angulardatatables';
  dtOptions: DataTables.Settings = {};
  ngOnInit() {
    this.dtOptions = {
      pagingType: 'full_numbers',
      pageLength: 5,
      processing: true
    };
}
}

6. Now add below code into app.component.html file:

<table class="table table-striped table-bordered table-sm row-border hover" datatable [dtOptions]="dtOptions">
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th>Name</th>
      <th>Email</th>
      <th>Website</th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
   <tr *ngFor="let group of data">
         <td>{{group.name}}</td>
         <td>{{group.email}}</td>
         <td>{{group.website}}</td>
     </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>
