DT Versions Save

Added outputArgs parameter to renderDataTable, to allow width and height to be set when using interactive R Markdown documents.

Fixed a bug in renderDT()'s evaluation of ... arguments when quoted = TRUE (#1130).

Maintain selected columns/rows/cells upon re-render (thanks, @epruesse, #1125).

The maintainer of this package has been changed from Yihui Xie (@yihui) to Joe Cheng (@jcheng5).

Fixed a bug that caused the column used for grouping with the RowGroup extension to change when relocated by the ColReorder extension (thanks, @isthisthat, @mikmart, #1109).

Fixed the bug that replaceData() failed to work with data that has no column names (thanks, @mmuurr, #1108).

updateSearch() now sets the slider values based on the new search string for numeric columns (thanks, @mikmart, #1110).

The searchCols option now sets the slider values for numeric columns when server = TRUE (thanks, @alexvpickering, @mikmart, #998).

Added server-side processing support for the SearchBuilder extension (thanks, @AhmedKhaled945, @shrektan, @mikmart, #963).

Fixed a bug that caused the date picker widget from the DateTime extension to render incorrectly (thanks, @mikmart, #1116).

Column formatting now also applies to range labels shown on filter sliders (thanks, @GitChub, @mikmart, #247).

Added support for passing custom configuration for initializing filter widgets in JavaScript. Use the filter parameter to datatable() in the form filter = list(settings = list(select = ..., slider = ...)) (thanks, @yogat3ch, @DavidBlairs, @mikmart, #1072, #1083).

Upgraded DataTables version to 1.13.6 (thanks, @stla, #1091).

Searching and sorting work now when columns are re-ordered by the ColReorder extension (thanks, @ashbaldry #1096, @gergness #534, @nmoraesmunter #921, @isthisthat #1069).

Fixed disabling selection on hyperlink clicks (thanks, @guoci, #1093).

Fixed an error for R >= 4.3.0 (thanks, @AntoineMichelet, #1095).

Fixed a bug that when using updateSearch(), the clear button inside the input box doesn't show up, and the table doesn't update when the input is cleared (thanks, @DavidBlairs, #1082).

Added support for a list of Booleans as input to the class argument of DT::datatable() when style = 'bootstrap' (thanks, @pedropark99, #1089). In other words, you can now select the Bootstrap classes you want to use at DT::datatable() by using a list of Booleans that select the classes you want to use. In the example below, we are producing an HTML table that uses the stripe and hover Bootstrap classes:

DT::datatable(mtcars, class = list(stripe = TRUE, compact = FALSE, hover = TRUE), style = "bootstrap")

Handle NULL return from bslib::theme_version() (thanks, @slodge-work, #1090).

Support Bootstrap 5 with datatable(style = "auto") (thanks, @gadenbuie, #1074).

Fixed a bug that searching would fail when the keyword contains special characters such as & (thanks, @dfriend21 @olivier7121, #1075).

Deleted () after eval in a JS comment to prevent Google from treating it as malware, which is just a false alarm (thanks, @gorkang, #1080).

Upgraded DataTables to v1.13.4 (thanks, @stla, #1063).

It is now possible to edit date columns with the help of calendar inputs (thanks, @stla, #1064).

dataTableOutput() gains a new fill parameter. When TRUE (the default), the widget's container element is allowed to grow/shrink to fit it's parent container so long as that parent is opinionated about its height and has been marked with htmltools::bindFillRole(x, container = TRUE). (#2198)

• The primary motivation for this is to allow DT to grow/shrink inside bslib::card_body_fill(). When doing so, you'll also want to set fillContainer = TRUE in datatable().

Bug fixed: when editing a table, it was impossible to switch from an empty cell to 0 and vice-versa (thanks, @RozennGZ #1038, @stla #1039).

When a datatable() is created outside a Shiny app, the selection argument won't work (thanks, @bartekch, #1043).

doGloblSearch() now works correctly when the input data frame is a tibble (@mikmart, #1044).

Upgraded DataTables to v1.12.1.

New extension StateRestore. It allows to save and restore DataTables states.

Default to width: 100%; height: auto instead of 500px x 960px when statically rendering in browser (thanks, @cpsievert, #1022).

Server-side filtering is now able to be ran as a future via the promises package (@andyquinterom, #1011). See the argument future on the help page ?DT::renderDataTable for more info.

Updated the jszip library to v3.10.1 (thanks, @hedsnz, #1017).

Fixed a bug with missing numeric values rendered as 0 (thanks, @tverbeke, #1000).

Box scalar elements of 'list' columns so that, e.g., data.frame(col = I(integer(), 1, 2:3)) is represented in JavaScript as [[], [1], [2, 3]] instead of [[], 1, [2, 3]] (thanks, @mtmorgan, #1005).
