Your own custom export button can be easily created by simply capturing the TableExport instance.
- First, save the TableExport instance to a variable.
- Second, call
getExportData()on the instance from step 1. The return value will be an object literal with keys corresponding to the table selector(s)idattribute (or a unique uuid generated by TableExport if anidis not provided). - Lastly, call
export2file(data, mimeType, filename, fileExtension). The arguments correspond to the keys of the Object returned from step 2 above.
var ExportButtons = document.getElementById('export-buttons-table');
var instance = new TableExport(ExportButtons, {
formats: ['xls'],
exportButtons: false
});
// // "id" of selector // format
var exportData = instance.getExportData()['export-buttons-table']['xls'];
var XLSbutton = document.getElementById('customXLSButton');
XLSbutton.addEventListener('click', function (e) {
// // data // mime // name // extension
instance.export2file(exportData.data, exportData.mimeType, exportData.filename, exportData.fileExtension);
});
Additionally, the raw binary data (and byte length) can be retrieved using the
getBinaryData prototype method.
// get raw binary data (i.e. filesize) var bytes = TableExport.prototype.getBinaryData(exportData.data, exportData.fileExtension); var byteLength = bytes.byteLength;
