Angular Material 7 - Table

The <mat-table>, an Angular Directives, is used to create table with material design and styling.

In this chapter, we will showcase the configuration required to show a Table using Angular Material.

Following is the content of the modified module descriptor app.module.ts.

import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import {BrowserAnimationsModule} from '@angular/platform-browser/animations';
import {MatTableModule} from '@angular/material'
import {FormsModule, ReactiveFormsModule} from '@angular/forms';
@NgModule({
   declarations: [
      AppComponent
   ],
   imports: [
      BrowserModule,
      BrowserAnimationsModule,
      MatTableModule,
      FormsModule,
      ReactiveFormsModule
   ],
   providers: [],
   bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

Following is the content of the modified HTML host file app.component.html.

<table mat-table [dataSource] = "dataSource" class = "mat-elevation-z8"> 
   <ng-container matColumnDef = "name">
      <th mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef> Dessert (100g)</th>
      <td mat-cell *matCellDef = "let element"> {{element.name}} </td>
   </ng-container>
   <ng-container matColumnDef = "calories">
      <th mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef>Calories</th>
      <td mat-cell *matCellDef = "let element"> {{element.calories}} </td>
   </ng-container>
   <ng-container matColumnDef = "fat">
      <th mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef>Fat (g)</th>
      <td mat-cell *matCellDef = "let element"> {{element.fat}} </td>
   </ng-container>
   <ng-container matColumnDef = "carbs">
      <th mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef>Carbs (g)</th>
      <td mat-cell *matCellDef = "let element"> {{element.carbs}} </td>
   </ng-container>
   <ng-container matColumnDef = "protein">
      <th mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef>Protein (g)</th>
     <td mat-cell *matCellDef = "let element"> {{element.protein}} </td>
   </ng-container> 
   <tr mat-header-row *matHeaderRowDef = "displayedColumns"></tr>
   <tr mat-row *matRowDef = "let row; columns: displayedColumns;"></tr>
</table>
