bootstrap datatable with sort pagination and search

How we can create a data table with all basic features easily? Solution: See this Bootstrap Datatable With Sort, Pagination, and Search, Sorting Table Program.

Previously I have shared a JavaScript table filter program that contains a search input for filtering. But this is a proper data table which has multiple filter options like sort, search, and visible items count also it has a pagination feature. This type of feature will see in multiple places like the ranking table, user management table, etc. This is proper datatable where you can put different conditions to search for a specified item.

Today you will learn to create a sorting data table using bootstrap and some JavaScript libraries. Basically, there is a table with 4 different columns like title, des, date, etc. And row count is above 10, which means there are more than 10 items available in the table. If I talk about features and filtering: first there is a select dropdown for select visible items, like how my items you want to visualize a single page. The second feature is you can search by inputting characters, third is you can sort items in accessing/descending order. The fourth feature is pagination, the items are dived in multiple pages using paging or pagination.

So, today you will learn to create Bootstrap Datatable With Sort, Pagination, and Search functions. There I have used bootstrap for creating the layout and bootstrap datatable library for creating the program. Also, there are some other JS libraries like jQuery and moment.js. As you know bootstrap’s JS files can’t run without jQuery. You can use this data table program on your website for multiple purposes.

If you are thinking now how this sorting table program actually is, then see the preview given below.

Bootstrap Datatable With Sort, Pagination, and Search Source Code

Before sharing source code, let’s talk about it. First I have created the divs according bootstrap grid layout, inside the divs I have created the table using <tr> <td> etc HTML table commands. I did not create any div or input of other features like pagination, search, etc. All these are based on libraries which I have linked. In the HTML file, I have linked bootstrap’s CSS and JS both files, jQuery, and the jQuery datatable plugin.

Now using CSS I have only gave values like color, margin, padding, etc to the table. Also used CSS @media query to reduce the size of some elements and block some in small screen sizes. The JavaScript file contains only 3-4 lines of codes, because it based on multiple libraries. As we know libraries save our time and effort.

Left all other things you will understand after getting the codes, I can’t explain all in writing. For creating this program, you have to create 3 files. First file for HTML, second for CSS, and the third file for JavaScript. Follow the steps to creating this program without any error.

index.html

Create an HTML file named ‘index.html‘ and put these codes given below.

style.css

Now create a CSS file named ‘style.css‘ and put these codes given below.

function.js

The final step, create a JavaScript file named ‘function.js‘ and put the codes.

That’s It. Now you have successfully created Bootstrap Datatable With Sort, Pagination, and Search, Sorting Data Table program. If you have any doubt or question comment down below.
