How to disable a checkbox in Editor?

divad.thgirbla

I've been trying to create a disabled checkbox in Editor but keep failing. I can always click inside the checkbox and change its value no matter which permutations of attributes and options I've tried. I've also modified one of your examples on http://live.datatables.net/rotivole/3/edit but get the same results. (I don't know if I broke anything by modifying that. Sorry, if I did.) I reduced the table to five people, added a 'Y' or a 'N' to the data and added my checkbox definition to Editor and DataTables but no matter what combination of attributes or options I tried, I could always click within the checkbox and change its value.

disabled:true
disabled:'true'
disabled:'disabled'
onclick:'return false';
etc...

$(document).ready(function() {
   
  //$.fn.dataTable.render.moment("M/D/YYYY");
  var editor = new $.fn.dataTable.Editor({
    table: "#example",
    fields: [
            {
                label: 'Name:',
                name: 'name'
            },
            {
                label: 'Position:',
                name: 'position'
            },
            {
                label: 'Office:',
                name: 'office'
            },
            {
                label: 'Age:',
                name: 'age',
              attr:{
                class:'aNumericField2',
                type:'number',
                maxlength:13,
                min:'0',
                max:'99999999',
                step:'0.01'
              }
            },
            {
                label: 'Start date:',
                name: 'start_date',
                type: 'datetime',
                format: 'YYYY/M/D'
            },
            {
                label: 'Salary:',
                name: 'salary'
            },
            {
              label: 'Alive',
              name: 'alive',
              type: 'checkbox',
              separator: '', 
              unselectedValue: 'N', 
              options: [{ label: '', value: 'Y' }],
              attr: {disabled:true}
            } 
    ]
  });

  $("#example").DataTable({
    dom: "Bfrtip",
    columns: [
            { data: 'name' },
            { data: 'position' },
            { data: 'office' },
            { data: 'age' },
            { data: 'start_date' },
            { data: 'salary' },
            { data: 'alive' }
    ],
    select: true,
    buttons: [
      { extend: "create", editor: editor },
      { extend: "edit", editor: editor },
      { extend: "remove", editor: editor }
    ]
  });
  
  $('#example').on('click', 'tbody tr td', function() {
    editor.inline(this);
  }); 

});

According to the checkbox docs it doesn't have an attr option. I think you will want to setup your checkbox more like this example:
https://editor.datatables.net/examples/api/checkbox.html

And use Datatables to enable to disable it.
