FieldColumnConfig

require(["esri/widgets/FeatureTable/FieldColumnConfig"], function(FieldColumnConfig) { /* code goes here */ });
Class: esri/widgets/FeatureTable/FieldColumnConfig
Inheritance: FieldColumnConfig FieldConfig Accessor
Since: ArcGIS API for JavaScript 4.15

The configuration options for displaying an individual field within the FeatureTable widget.

Below are some things to consider when enabling/disabling editing in a field configuration.

Editing permissions can be broken down with the following levels of priority:

  1. Field - This is derived from the FeatureLayer. It takes what is set in the Field.editable property. This must always be true for editing to be enabled. This can be overriden using a field column configuration.
  2. Config - The editable permissions on a field can be configured by setting the editable property of the FieldColumnConfig.
  3. FeatureTable - The editingEnabled property must be set on the table in order for any type of editing to be enabled.

For example, if table editing is disabled in the widget, i.e. enableEditing is not set, it is still possible to enable editing for a specific column by setting the editable property. Vice versa is also true, if table editing is enabled, a field configuration can be used to disable editing for a specific column.

Ultimately, if the service's field is not editable, it is not possible to override its permissions using one of the options above.

Example:
// Shows how field column configs can be set to control editing
// within a table
const table = new FeatureTable({
  editingEnabled: true, //enables editing on the entire table (if service allows it)
  layer: featureLayer,
  container: document.getElementById("table"),
  fieldConfigs: [{
    name: "NAME",
    label: name,
    direction: "asc",
  },
  {
  name: "ADDRESS",
  label: address,
  editable: false, // disables editing for the ADDRESS field
  required: true
}]
});

optional

See the properties for a list of all the properties that may be passed into the constructor.

Example:
// Typical usage for FieldColumnConfig.
const fieldConfig1 = new FieldColumnConfig({
  name: "FID",
  label: "ID",
  // This field will not be shown in the table initially
  visible: false
 });

const fieldConfig2 = new FieldColumnConfig({
  name: "NAME",
  label: "School Name",
  // The table will be sorted by this column
  // in ascending order
  direction: "asc"
});

// Apply field configs to feature table
const featuretable = new FeatureTable({
  layer: featureLayer,
  fieldConfigs: [fieldConfig1, fieldConfig2],
  container: "tableDiv"
});

Property Details

declaredClass Stringreadonly inherited

The name of the class. The declared class name is formatted as esri.folder.className.

description String inherited

The field's description. The description is shown below the field.

direction String|null

Controls the sort order of the column. This property will only be honored on one fieldColumn in the FeatureTable widget. If direction is specified on more than one fieldColumn in the same FeatureTable, it will only be honored on the column with the highest index. For example, let's say the first column called ObjectId is set to asc and another column later in the table order also has a set direction, the initial ObjectId column's direction will be ignored for the last one with the set direction.

Possible ValueDescription
ascSorts the column in ascending order.
descSorts the column in descending order.
nullNo sort is applied to the column.

Possible Values:"asc"|"desc"

Indicates whether the field can be edited.

This does not change the underlying service's field and whether it can be edited.

Default Value:true
includeTime Boolean inherited
Since: ArcGIS API for JavaScript 4.17

Indicates whether date fields should display input for editing time.

Default Value:true
See also:

The field's label. The label is shown above the field.

Default Value:false
requiredExpression String inherited
Since: ArcGIS API for JavaScript 4.16

A reference to an Arcade expression that returns a boolean value. When this expression evaluates to true and the element is visible, the element must have a valid value in order for the feature to be created or edited. When the expression evaluates to false the element is not required. If no expression is provided, the default behavior is that the element is not required. If the referenced field is non-nullable, the required expression is ignored and the element is always required.

sortable Boolean

Indicates whether the field column can be sorted.

Default Value:true
visible Boolean

Indicates whether the field column is visible.
