Config

DataTable Visualization that derives from HtmlTable and sets show_extra_columns to true.

Properties

This class defines the following properties:

$clientSideProperties

The list of ViewDataTable properties that are 'Client Side Properties'.

Signature

  • Its type is not specified.

$overridableProperties

The list of ViewDataTable properties that can be overridden by query parameters.

Signature

  • Its type is not specified.

Controls what footer icons are displayed on the bottom left of the DataTable view.

The value of this property must be an array of footer icon groups. Footer icon groups have set of properties, including an array of arrays describing footer icons. For example:

array(
    array( // footer icon group 1
        'class' => 'footerIconGroup1CssClass',
        'buttons' => array(
            'id' => 'myid',
            'title' => 'My Tooltip',
            'icon' => 'path/to/my/icon.png'
        )
    ),
    array( // footer icon group 2
        'class' => 'footerIconGroup2CssClass',
        'buttons' => array(...)
    )
)

By default, when a user clicks on a footer icon, Matomo (formerly Piwik) will assume the 'id' is a viewDataTable ID and try to reload the DataTable w/ the new viewDataTable. You can provide your own footer icon behavior by adding an appropriate handler via DataTable.registerFooterIconHandler in your JavaScript code.
