I need to get my hands on existing datatable's fnRowCallback setting but everything I try seems to fail.
What have I tried:
1:
var dt = $('#table').dataTable({
"bRetrieve": true,
"fnRowCallback" : function (nRow, aData, iDisplayIndex, iDisplayIndexFull) {
console.warn("working");
}
);
2:
var dt = $('#table').dataTable({"bRetrieve": true});
dt.fnSettings().fnRowCallback = function (nRow, aData, iDisplayIndex, iDisplayIndexFull) {
console.warn("working");
}
No luck, but if I change
var dt = $('#table').dataTable({"bRetrieve": true});
dt.fnSettings().sAjaxSource = "invalid url";
I get an error so that one seems to work. Also if I do fnRowCallback in the original datatable initialisation it works, but that's not what I want.
I deleted my old answer since I really didn't understand your post (it was late!)
It seems like you either have to use unofficial API, or destroy the old table and re-init it.
Unofficial API way (might not work in future version), tested; working in dataTable 1.9.2
$("#table").dataTable().fnSettings().aoDrawCallback.push( {
"fn": function (oSettings) {
if ( oSettings.aiDisplay.length == 0 ) {
return;
}
var nTrs = $('#table tbody tr');
var iColspan = nTrs[0].getElementsByTagName('td').length;
var sLastGroup = "";
for ( var i=0 ; i<nTrs.length ; i++ ) {
var iDisplayIndex = oSettings._iDisplayStart + i;
data = oSettings.aoData[ oSettings.aiDisplay[iDisplayIndex] ]._aData;
// Now you can access things like
if (data.percentage > 80) {
// And access the rows like this
$(nTrs[i]).addClass("highlight-green");
}
}
},
} );
Correct way: Save old settings, destroy, re-init
var oTable = $('#table').dataTable();
var oldoptions = oTable.fnSettings();
var newoptions = $.extend(oldoptions, {
fnRowCallback: function(nRow, aData, iDisplayIndex, iDisplayIndexFull) {
console.warn("working");
}
})
oTable.fnDestroy();
$('#table').dataTable(newoptions);
