# responsive

Type: Boolean

Default: true

If set to true, listable will handle table responsiveness.

<listable :responsive="true" />

# Hooks

Hooks are handlers for each table row and each table cell. With hook it is possible to manipulate classes and styles of rows and cells in vue way.

Simple hook is to handle table cells, and rowHook is to handle table rows.

First argument of handler is always object with classes and styles applied to handled element.

Second argument is always row of currently operated data.

Third argument in simple hook is column name.

Why not refs? Refs causes update, so update for each row is slower than using handlers.

<template>
  <div>
    <listable
      :headings="headings"
      :data="items"
      :hook="onHook"
      :rowHook="onRowHook"
    />
  </div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
  data: () => ({
    headings: [
      {
        display: "ID",
        column: "id",
      },
      {
        display: "Name",
        column: "name",
        search: true
      },
      {
        display: "Paid",
        column: "is_paid"
      },
      {
        display: "New",
        column: "is_new"
      }
    ],
    items: [
      {
        id: 1,
        name: "Shoes"
        is_paid: true,
        is_new: false
      },
      {
        id: 2,
        name: "Apple"
        is_paid: false,
        is_new: true
      }
    ]
  }),
  methods: {
    onHook(calculated, row, column) {
      console.info(row);
      if (column == "id") {
        calculated.style.backgroundColor = 'rgb(225, 225, 225)';
      }
      if (column == "is_new") {
        // if row.is_new is true a class new is added
        // if row.is_new is false a class new is not added
        calculated.class['new'] = row.is_new;
      }
    },
    onRowHook(calculated, row) {
      console.info(row);
      // if row.paid is true a class paid is added
      // if row.paid is false a class paid is not added
      calculated.class['paid'] = row.is_paid;
    }
  }
}
