Add Styling to row/cell on igGrid based on Data

Liz Thompson posted 1 month ago

I'm trying to do something similar but can't seem to make it work the same way. One column in my ig grid is dates and if the date is expired then I want to highlight the row and change the color of the date cell. This my code:

                rowsRendered: function (evt, ui) {

                            //highlight row if employee expired
                             var rowData, $rowElem, grid = ui.owner;
                             var today = new Date();
                             today.setHours(0, 0, 0, 0);
                             $.each(grid.allRows(), function (idx, row) {
                                 $rowElem = $(row);
                                 rowData = grid.findRecordByKey($rowElem.data("id"));
                                 if (rowData.employeeLicenseExpirationDate !== null) {
                                     var expDate = new Date(rowData.employeeLicenseExpirationDate);
                                     if (expDate < today) {
                                         //highlight row
                                         $rowElem.addClass('highlight');
                                         //change color of date
                                         var cell = grid.cellById($rowElem.data("id"), 6);
                                         cell.addClass('exp');

                                     }
                                 }
                             });
                }

My css:

.ui-igrecord ui-iggrid-record {
background-color: #fcf8e3;
}

.exp {
color: red;
}

Can you help me figure out the issue?

Thanks!

Hello Liz,

Thank you for posting in our forum.

I have modified my code sample from the link you have provided above, here are the changes:

I am using the rowsRendered event because it gets raised by the grid every time it re-renders – this way even if the user has Filtering or Sorting features enabled, the coloring would stay.
I am iterating over the rows of the grid and using the getCellValue method from the API to get the date and comparing it to the current date and time. In case of expiry I am getting a reference to the whole row with the rowById method from the API and iterating over the row cells in order to change their background-color. After that I am getting the expired date cell and adding the red color.

Note that you could remove the "!important" from the CSS if you want to, but this way if you sort the date column it would get a blue color, as the grid changes the cell attributes at runtime. Also you would have to remove the .rowExpired class first and then add the .expired as otherwise it gets overridden.

This is the code sample:
