# Data Table Filters

A shadcn registry for building filterable, sortable data tables with infinite scroll and virtualization. Start with the core block, then extend with optional blocks for command palette, cell renderers, sheet panels, store adapters, schema generation, Drizzle ORM helpers, and React Query integration.

## Registry Blocks

Install any block via `npx shadcn@latest add <url>`. The CLI handles dependencies, path rewriting, and CSS variable injection.

All URLs use base `https://data-table.openstatus.dev`.

## Quick Start

1. Run `scripts/detect-stack.sh` to detect the user's project setup
2. Install core: `npx shadcn@latest add https://data-table.openstatus.dev/r/data-table.json`
3. Scaffold a minimal working table (see below)
4. Extend with additional blocks as needed

> **Next.js?** Use the [data-table-filters repo](https://github.com/openstatushq/data-table-filters) as a reference — it's a full Next.js app with all blocks wired up.

### Minimal Working Table (Memory Adapter)

> **Note:** `DataTableInfinite` internally renders `DataTableProvider`, which already wraps children with `ControlsProvider` and `DataTableStoreSync`. You do NOT need to add these separately. The only wrapper you need is `DataTableStoreProvider` (for the BYOS adapter).

```tsx
"use client";
import { DataTableInfinite } from "@/components/data-table/data-table-infinite";
import type { DataTableFilterField } from "@/components/data-table/types";
import { useMemoryAdapter } from "@/lib/store/adapters/memory";
import { DataTableStoreProvider } from "@/lib/store/provider/DataTableStoreProvider";
import type { ColumnDef } from "@tanstack/react-table";

const columns: ColumnDef<YourData>[] = [
  /* user's columns */
];
const filterFields: DataTableFilterField<YourData>[] = [
  /* user's filters */
];

export function MyTable({ data }: { data: YourData[] }) {
  const adapter = useMemoryAdapter(/* schema definition */);
  return (
    <DataTableStoreProvider adapter={adapter}>
      <DataTableInfinite
        columns={columns}
        data={data}
        filterFields={filterFields}
      />
    </DataTableStoreProvider>
  );
}
```

## Wiring Extension Blocks

After installing a block via `npx shadcn@latest add`, wire it into the table.

### Command Palette → `commandSlot`

```tsx
<DataTableInfinite
  commandSlot={<DataTableFilterCommand schema={schema} tableId="my-table" />}
/>
```

### Sheet Detail Panel → `sheetSlot`

```tsx
<DataTableInfinite
  sheetSlot={
    <DataTableSheetDetails title="Details">{content}</DataTableSheetDetails>
  }
/>
```

### Floating Bar (Bulk Actions) → `floatingBarSlot`

Add `col.select()` to the schema to enable multi-row selection with checkboxes. Wrap actions in `DataTableFloatingBar` — it reads selection state from context (same pattern as `DataTableSheetDetails` for `sheetSlot`).

```tsx
// In table-schema.tsx
export const tableSchema = createTableSchema({
  select: col.select().size(37),
  // ... other columns
});

// In client.tsx
import { DataTableFloatingBar } from "@/components/data-table/data-table-floating-bar";

<DataTableInfinite
  floatingBarSlot={
    <DataTableFloatingBar>
      {({ rows }) => (
        <Button variant="outline" size="sm" onClick={() => console.log(rows)}>
          Export ({rows.length})
        </Button>
      )}
    </DataTableFloatingBar>
  }
/>;
```

### Cell Renderers → column definitions

```tsx
import { DataTableCellBadge } from "@/components/data-table/data-table-cell";
// Use in columnDef.cell
```

### Custom Filter Types → `FILTER_COMPONENTS`

All 4 filter types ship with core. To add custom types:

```tsx
import { FILTER_COMPONENTS } from "@/components/data-table/data-table-filter-controls";
FILTER_COMPONENTS.myCustom = MyCustomFilterComponent;
```

### AI Command Palette → `commandSlot`

```tsx
<DataTableInfinite
  commandSlot={
    <DataTableFilterAICommand
      schema={filterSchema.definition}
      tableSchema={tableSchema.definition}
      api="/api/ai-filters"
      tableId="my-table"
    />
  }
/>
```

Requires an API route that streams AI results. See [references/ai-filters.md](references/ai-filters.md).

### All Slot Props

`DataTableInfinite` accepts: `commandSlot`, `sheetSlot`, `toolbarActions`, `chartSlot`, `footerSlot`, `floatingBarSlot`.

See [references/component-catalog.md](references/component-catalog.md) for full wiring details.

## Store Adapter Configuration

- **memory** (default) — Ephemeral, zero config. For prototyping, embedded components, builders.
- **nuqs** — URL state. Shareable links, bookmarkable filters. Requires framework setup.
- **zustand** — Client state. For existing zustand apps, complex app state.

Install adapter block, swap in provider. See [references/store-adapters.md](references/store-adapters.md).

## Schema Generation

Install: `npx shadcn@latest add .../r/data-table-schema.json`

Map data model → `createTableSchema` + `col.*`:

- `string` → `col.string().filterable("input")`
- `number` → `col.number().filterable("slider", { min, max })`
- `boolean` → `col.boolean().filterable("checkbox")`
- `Date` → `col.timestamp().filterable("timerange")`
- `enum` → `c
