Yii2 GridView Editable Cell - editable cells in GridView for Yii2.

Installation

or add to composer.json:

{
    "require": {
        "martynchuk/yii2-editable-cell": "*"
    }
}

Usage

Basic Usage

In your GridView use EditableColumn instead of a regular column:

use martynchuk\editablecell\EditableColumn;

echo GridView::widget([
    'dataProvider' => $dataProvider,
    'columns' => [
        'id',
        [
            'class' => EditableColumn::class,
            'attribute' => 'name',
            'editableUrl' => ['site/editable'],
        ],
        'email',
    ],
]);

Configuration

[
    'class' => EditableColumn::class,
    'attribute' => 'status',
    'editableType' => 'select', // text, textarea, select, date, number
    'editableUrl' => ['user/update-status'],
    'editableOptions' => [
        'items' => [
            ['value' => 1, 'label' => 'Active'],
            ['value' => 0, 'label' => 'Inactive'],
        ],
    ],
    'primaryKey' => 'id',
    'pjaxContainer' => '#grid-pjax', // Pjax container selector to reload after save
    'afterSave' => 'onStatusUpdated', // JavaScript callback
    'onError' => 'onUpdateError', // JavaScript callback
]

Edit Types

• text - text input field (default)
• textarea - multiline text field
• select - dropdown list (requires editableOptions['items'])
• date - date picker field
• number - number input field

Server-side Handling

Use the built-in helper class for easy processing:

use martynchuk\editablecell\EditableHelper;

public function actionEditable()
{
    return EditableHelper::process(Articles::class);
}
