Step 3 – Add JavaScript
We use some external JavaScript link to this code. No need to worry about this, copy and paste below code between <head></head> tag.
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/angular.js/1.3.10/angular.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.3.6/angular-animate.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.3.6/angular-aria.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angular_material/0.7.1/angular-material.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://greggman.com/downloads/examples/colresizable/colResizable-1.5.min.js"></script>
</head>
And also copy and paste below JavaScript code between <script></script> tag.
<script>
var app = angular.module("StarterApp", ["ngMaterial"]);
app.controller("AppCtrl", [
"$scope",
function ($scope) {
$scope.toggleSearch = false;
$scope.headers = [
{
name: "",
field: "thumb"
},
{
name: "Name",
field: "name"
},
{
name: "Description",
field: "description"
},
{
name: "Last Modified",
field: "last_modified"
}
];
$scope.content = [
{
thumb:

}
];
$scope.custom = {
name: "bold",
description: "grey",
last_modified: "grey"
};
$scope.sortable = ["name", "description", "last_modified"];
$scope.thumbs = "thumb";
$scope.count = 3;
}
]);
app.directive("mdTable", function () {
return {
restrict: "E",
scope: {
headers: "=",
content: "=",
sortable: "=",
filters: "=",
customClass: "=customClass",
thumbs: "=",
count: "="
},
controller: function ($scope, $filter, $window) {
var orderBy = $filter("orderBy");
$scope.tablePage = 0;
($scope.nbOfPages = function () {
return Math.ceil($scope.content.length / $scope.count);
}),
($scope.handleSort = function (field) {
if ($scope.sortable.indexOf(field) > -1) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
});
$scope.order = function (predicate, reverse) {
$scope.content = orderBy($scope.content, predicate, reverse);
$scope.predicate = predicate;
};
$scope.order($scope.sortable[0], false);
$scope.getNumber = function (num) {
return new Array(num);
};
$scope.goToPage = function (page) {
$scope.tablePage = page;
};
},
template: angular
.element(document.querySelector("#md-table-template"))
.html()
};
});
//UNCOMMENT BELOW TO BE ABLE TO RESIZE COLUMNS OF THE TABLE
/*
app.directive('mdColresize', function ($timeout) {
return {
restrict: 'A',
link: function (scope, element, attrs) {
scope.$evalAsync(function () {
$timeout(function(){ $(element).colResizable({
liveDrag: true,
fixed: true
});},100);
});
}
}
});
*/
app.directive("showFocus", function ($timeout) {
return function (scope, element, attrs) {
scope.$watch(
attrs.showFocus,
function (newValue) {
$timeout(function () {
newValue && element.focus();
});
},
true
);
};
});
app.filter("startFrom", function () {
return function (input, start) {
start = +start;
return input.slice(start);
};
});
