Getting Started: A Practical Example

To integrate Flutter DataGrid into your project, follow these steps:

  1. Import the package:
import 'package:syncfusion_flutter_datagrid/datagrid.dart';
  1. Create a data source:
class Employee {
  Employee(this.id, this.name, this.designation, this.salary);
  final int id;
  final String name;
  final String designation;
  final int salary;
}

List<Employee> employees = <Employee>[];
  1. Create a DataGridSource:
class EmployeeDataSource extends DataGridSource {
  EmployeeDataSource() {
    _employees = employees
        .map<DataGridRow>((e) => DataGridRow(cells: [
              DataGridCell<int>(columnName: 'id', value: e.id),
              DataGridCell<String>(columnName: 'name', value: e.name),
              DataGridCell<String>(
                  columnName: 'designation', value: e.designation),
              DataGridCell<int>(columnName: 'salary', value: e.salary),
            ]))
        .toList();
  }

  List<DataGridRow> _employees = [];

  @override
  List<DataGridRow> get rows => _employees;

  @override
  DataGridRowAdapter? buildRow(DataGridRow row) {
    return DataGridRowAdapter(
        cells: row.getCells().map<Widget>((dataGridCell) {
      return Container(
          alignment: (dataGridCell.columnName == 'id' ||
                  dataGridCell.columnName == 'salary')
              ? Alignment.centerRight
              : Alignment.centerLeft,
          padding: EdgeInsets.all(16.0),
          child: Text(dataGridCell.value.toString()));
    }).toList());
  }
}
  1. Create the DataGrid:
SfDataGrid(
  source: _employeeDataSource,
  columns: <GridColumn>[
    GridColumn(
        columnName: 'id',
        label: Container(
            padding: EdgeInsets.all(16.0),
            alignment: Alignment.centerRight,
            child: Text('ID'))),
    GridColumn(
        columnName: 'name',
        label: Container(
            padding: EdgeInsets.all(16.0),
            alignment: Alignment.centerLeft,
            child: Text('Name'))),
    GridColumn(
        columnName: 'designation',
        width: 120,
        label: Container(
            padding: EdgeInsets.all(16.0),
            alignment: Alignment.centerLeft,
            child: Text('Designation'))),
    GridColumn(
        columnName: 'salary',
        label: Container(
            padding: EdgeInsets.all(16.0),
            alignment: Alignment.centerRight,
            child: Text('Salary'))),
  ],
)
