The Loading Component is displayed for a row to show data is loading.
Full Width Loading Row
The example below demonstrates replacing the Provided Loading Component with a Custom Loading Component.
- Custom Loading Component is supplied by name via
gridOptions.loadingCellRenderer
. - Custom Loading Component Parameters are supplied using
gridOptions.loadingCellRendererParams
. - Example simulates a long delay to display the spinner clearly.
- Scrolling the grid will request more rows and again display the loading cell renderer.
Custom Loading Row
Any valid Vue component can be a Loading Cell Renderer Component.
When a custom Loading Cell Renderer Component is instantiated within the the grid the following will be made available on this.params
:
Properties available on the ILoadingCellRendererParams<TData = any, TContext = any>
interface.
The row node. |
The grid api. |
Application context as set on gridOptions.context . |
Failed Loading
When using a Custom Loading Component, you can add handling for loading failures in the component directly.
In the example below, note that:
- Custom Loading Component is supplied by name via
gridOptions.loadingCellRenderer
. - Custom Loading Component Parameters are supplied using
gridOptions.loadingCellRendererParams
. - The example simulates a long delay to display the spinner clearly and simulates a loading failure.
Dynamic Loading Row Selection
It's possible to determine what Loading Cell Renderer to use dynamically - i.e. at runtime. This requires providing a loadingCellRendererSelector
.
loadingCellRendererSelector: (params) => {
const useCustomRenderer = ...some condition/check...
if (useCustomRenderer) {
return {
// the component to use - registered previously
component: 'customLoadingCellRenderer',
params: {
// parameters to supply to the custom loading cell renderer
loadingMessage: '--- CUSTOM LOADING MESSAGE ---',
},
};
} else {
// no loading cell renderer
return undefined;
}
}
}
Skeleton Loading
The grid can be configured to instead display loading indicators in cells, by enabling suppressServerSideFullWidthLoadingRow
.
const gridOptions = {
suppressServerSideFullWidthLoadingRow: true,
};
Custom Loading Cells
The default grid behaviour can be overridden in order to provide renderers on a per-column basis.
const gridOptions = {
suppressServerSideFullWidthLoadingRow: true,
columnDefs: [
{ field: 'athlete', loadingCellRenderer: CustomLoadingCellRenderer },
// More columns, with no load renderer...
],
defaultColDef: {
loadingCellRenderer: () => '',
},
};
The above example demonstrates the following:
suppressServerSideFullWidthLoadingRow
is enabled, preventing the grid from defaulting to full width loading.loadingCellRenderer
is configured on the Athlete column, allowing a loading spinner to be displayed for just this column.loadingCellRenderer
is configured on thedefaultColDef
providing an empty cell renderer in order to prevent the default grid loading renderer from displaying on other columns.
