Create Spreadsheet / Table Widget #177

Open jonlamdev opened 3 years ago

jonlamdev commented 3 years ago

Spreadsheet (table view) is a useful format for certain use cases (e.g. bulk, high level) to ease content manipulation (in contrast with a form view).

Examples of spreadsheet view can be found in Airtable (https://airtable.com/) and Baserow (https://baserow.io/)

Existing Work

Tabulator (http://tabulator.info/) is JS library that provides dynamic editor functionality

Related OC

Bulk actions: e.g. https://github.com/OrchardCMS/OrchardCore/issues/1715

Deliverable

Create a tabulator widget that is configured to a content type and allows a user to edit a content list
See supported formats (http://tabulator.info/docs/4.9/format) for table initialization

So this would allow users to edit some fields in the list ?

Yes,

tie into the content management (i.e. content types/parts)
read only for MVP; could use for admin view for content items
