Angular DataGrid - Selection

NOTE
You must specify the DataGrid's keyExpr or the Store's key property to ensure that selection works properly.

User Interaction

The DataGrid UI component supports single and multiple row selection. Use the selection.mode property to change the current mode.

jQuery
JavaScript
$(function() {
    $("#dataGridContainer").dxDataGrid({
        // ...
        selection: {
            mode: "single" // or "multiple" | "none"
        }
    });
});

    </dxo-selection>

import DxDataGrid, {
    DxSelection
} from 'devextreme-vue/data-grid';

        DxDataGrid,
        DxSelection
    }

} from 'devextreme-react/data-grid';

class App extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <DataGrid ... >
                <Selection mode="single" /> {/* "multiple" | "none" */}
            </DataGrid>
        );
    }
}
export default App;

In the single mode, only one row can be selected at a time, while in the multiple mode, several rows can be selected with check boxes that appear in the selection column.

DevExtreme HTML5 JavaScript jQuery Angular Knockout UI component DataGrid Sorting

The check box in the column's header selects all rows or only the currently rendered ones, depending on the selectAllMode. Note that clicking this check box selects/deselects only those rows that meet filtering conditions if a filter is applied.

    $("#dataGridContainer").dxDataGrid({

You can prevent users from selecting all rows by setting the selection.allowSelectAll property to false.

jQuery
JavaScript
$(function() {
    $("#dataGridContainer").dxDataGrid({
        // ...
        selection: {
            mode: "multiple",

        }
    });

        return (

                <Selection
                    mode="multiple"
                    allowSelectAll={false}

The showCheckBoxesMode the property specifies when the UI component renders checkboxes in the selection column. For example, the following code tells the UI component to never render them, though a user can still select rows using keyboard shortcuts:

jQuery
JavaScript
$(function() {
    $("#dataGridContainer").dxDataGrid({
        // ...
        selection: {
            mode: "multiple",
            showCheckBoxesMode: "none"    // or "onClick" | "onLongTap" | "always" 
        }
    });
});
Angular

Initial and Runtime Selection

Use the selectedRowKeys property to select rows initially. Note that to access a row by its key, you should specify the DataGrid's keyExpr or the Store's key property.

jQuery
JavaScript
$(function() {
    $("#dataGridContainer").dxDataGrid({
        // ...
        dataSource: {
            store: {
                // ...
                key: "id"
            }
        },
        selectedRowKeys: [1, 5, 18]
    });

The DataGrid provides two methods that select rows at runtime: selectRows(keys, preserve) and selectRowsByIndexes(indexes). They both clear the previous selection by default, although with the selectRows(keys, preserve) method you can keep it if you pass true as the preserve parameter. Before selecting a row, you can call the isRowSelected(key) method to check if this row is not already selected.

jQuery
JavaScript
var selectSingleRow = function (dataGridInstance, key, preserve) {
    if (!dataGridInstance.isRowSelected(key)) {
        dataGridInstance.selectRows([key], preserve);
    }
}
JavaScript
$("#dataGridContainer").dxDataGrid({
    // ...
    onContentReady: function (e) {
        // Selects the first visible row
        e.component.selectRowsByIndexes([0]);
    }
}).dxDataGrid("instance");

    selectSingleRow (key, preserve) {

            this.dataGrid.instance.selectRows([key], preserve);
        }

Call the clearSelection() method to clear selection of all rows. If you apply a filter and want to keep the selection of invisible rows that do not meet the filtering conditions, use the deselectAll() method. Also call this method to clear selection depending on the selectAllMode.

Events

The DataGrid UI component raises the selectionChanged event when a row is selected, or the selection is cleared. If the function that handles this event is going to remain unchanged, assign it to the onSelectionChanged property when you configure the UI component. Note that information on selected and deselected rows is passed to the handler only when selection is not deferred.

jQuery
JavaScript
$(function() {
    $("#dataGridContainer").dxDataGrid({
        onSelectionChanged: function(e) { // Handler of the "selectionChanged" event
            var currentSelectedRowKeys = e.currentSelectedRowKeys;
            var currentDeselectedRowKeys = e.currentDeselectedRowKeys;
            var allSelectedRowKeys = e.selectedRowKeys;
            var allSelectedRowsData = e.selectedRowsData;
            // ...
        }
    });
});

If you are going to change the event handler at runtime, or if you need to attach several handlers to the event, subscribe to it using the on(eventName, eventHandler) method.

JavaScript
var selectionChangedEventHandler1 = function(e) {
    // First handler of the "selectionChanged" event
};

var selectionChangedEventHandler2 = function(e) {
    // Second handler of the "selectionChanged" event
};

$("#dataGridContainer").dxDataGrid("instance")
    .on("selectionChanged", selectionChangedEventHandler1)
    .on("selectionChanged", selectionChangedEventHandler2);
