How to render filename instead of image in editor upload working example?
How to render filename instead of image in editor upload working example?
I'm struggling to render the 'file name' of the document I uploaded with the editor upload function. So instead of the image like in the working example https://editor.datatables.net/examples/advanced/upload.html I would like to render the 'file name'. In the editor function it is working fine, but in the table I still get the file ID. By any chance, is somebody seeing what I'm missing?
Or how would the display function look like in the working example if I just want to have the file name ... e.g. test.csv
editor = new $.fn.dataTable.Editor( {
ajax: "...upload.php",
table: "#datatable",
fields: [ {
label: "Data Source:",
name: "document",
type: "upload",
display: function ( file_id ) {
return table.file( 'files', file_id ).filename;
},
clearText: "Clear",
noImageText: 'No document'
}
]
} );
var table = $('#datatable').DataTable( {
dom: "Brt",
ajax: "...upload.php",
columns: [
{
data: "document",
display: function ( file_id ) {
return file_id ?
table.file( 'files', file_id ).filename :
'No document';
},
title: "Document"
}
],
select: true,
buttons: [
{ extend: "edit", editor: editor }
]
} );
It should work corresponding to https://datatables.net/reference/api/file%28%29

I need to use 'render' instead of 'display' in the $().DataTable() function ... :-) Now it's working ...
Hi,
Thanks for posting back with your solution. You are correct -
columns.render
is the option to use in DataTables for this.Allan
