===== Installation =====
Search and install the plugin using the [[plugin:extension|Extension Manager]]. Refer to [[:Plugins]] on how to install plugins manually.

Install also [[https://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:json|JSON plugin]].

===== Description =====
JSON Table Plugin is based on [[https://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:json|JSON plugin]]. It adds a table to the page.  Table can be edited like spreadsheet and data can be saved inside a page without page reload. Table is based on [[https://handsontable.com/|Handsontable]]. Data for the table is defined by JSON plugin. Table has many options, for example: column header, data validator, select.

<code>
<jsontable id=cars path=cars options='{"colHeaders": ["Year", "Car", "Count"]}'>[
    ["2017", "Honda", 10],
    ["2018", "Toyota", 20],
    ["2019", "Nissan", 30]
]</jsontable>
</code>

Here is a [[https://dokuwiki-json-demo.1001beauty.si/|Dokuwiki JSON Demo Server]] with JSON database integrated into DokuWiki. Also source code of this plugin contains demo. You can copy the contents of the demo files into your Dokuwiki and experiment with them.

===== Usage =====
Syntax is similar as in [[https://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:json|JSON Data Plugin]]:\\
''<jsontable'' //attributes// ''>'' //inline_json// ''</jsontable>''

It is parsed with same parser as ''<json>'' elements, so rules for //attributes// and //inline_json// are the same. It loads JSON data the same way, from //src// attribute and from //inline_json//. It only has some extra attributes and additional tab for the table. Data source for the table is JSON data defined by the %%<jsontable>%% element (see attributes 'path', 'src', 'src_ext' and //inline_json//).

==== Attribute 'options' ====
It must be a valid [[https://json.org/|JSON]] string inside single quotes. Special characters inside string, like ''%%'%%'', ''%%<%%'' or ''%%>%%'', can be passed by ''&apos;'', ''&lt;'' or ''&gt;''. Options are directly passed into [[https://handsontable.com/docs/6.2.2/Options.html|Handsontable options]]. All Handsontable options are freely configurable, except data source. Options may also be defined inside JSON database. In this case they can be referenced from there, for example ''options=%''''$path.to.table_options%''.

==== Attribute 'save' ====
It specifies, how data are stored into ''//inline_data//''. If set to ''all'', then all 'combined_data' will be stored into 'inline_data' on table change. Otherwise only the difference from 'original data' will be saved. This is the default behavior.
