Getting values of selected table rows in bootstrap using jquery

Question

I'm using bootstrap table. In that I want to get Item ID value/values of selected table rows after clicking 'Add to cart' button present on same page.

Table code:

<table data-toggle="table" id="table-style" data-row-style="rowStyle" data-url="tables/data2.json"  data-show-refresh="true" data-show-toggle="true" data-show-columns="true" data-search="true" data-select-item-name="toolbar1" data-pagination="true" data-sort-name="name" data-sort-order="desc" data-single-select="false" data-click-to-select="true" data-maintain-selected="true">
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th data-field="state" data-checkbox="true"></th>
      <th data-field="id" >Item ID</th>
      <th data-field="name" data-sortable="true">Product Name</th>
      <th data-field="price" data-sortable="true">Actual Price</th>
      <th data-field="discount_price" data-sortable="true">Discount Price</th>
      <th data-field="stock_avail" data-sortable="true">Stock Available</th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
</table>

JQuery code:

$(document).ready(function()
{
   $("#add_cart").click(function()
   {
      //foreach selected row retrieve 'Item ID' values in array;
      //call ajax for otherpage.php?arr='Item ID array';
   });
});

As I'm new in bootstrap I'm trying to tackle this but not getting proper solution anybody please advise me this.

Answer 1

Just use the check.bs.table and uncheck.bs.table events to collect your checked rows.

BS-Table Basic Events

Here is an example:

var checkedRows = [];

$('#eventsTable').on('check.bs.table', function (e, row) {
  checkedRows.push({id: row.id, name: row.name, forks: row.forks});
  console.log(checkedRows);
});

$('#eventsTable').on('uncheck.bs.table', function (e, row) {
  $.each(checkedRows, function(index, value) {
    if (value.id === row.id) {
      checkedRows.splice(index,1);
    }
  });
  console.log(checkedRows);
});

$("#add_cart").click(function() {
  $("#output").empty();
  $.each(checkedRows, function(index, value) {
    $('#output').append($('<li></li>').text(value.id + " | " + value.name + " | " + value.forks));
  });
});

That's great, perfect. – Stone

Hi, It is posible to set this code (show only selected items) to work with a normal table (data source to be from html, not from JSON)? Sorry, I don't know JS. Thank you for any help. – Hoskinson

@Hoskinson It shouldn't make any difference if the data is static HTML or coming from JSON. Did you try it out ? – Harless

Yes. My problem is that I can't manage to do that from JS for this sniped: link . Can you please help? – Hoskinson

how do you get values of all items if you check box all? – Hornstein

Link (bootstrap-table.com/examples/#events) in the answer is not working anymore. – Mikiso

More elegant in 2020: .on('uncheck.bs.table', function (e, row) { checkedRows = checkedRows.filter(item => item.id != row.id) }); – Psychotechnics

Not working when check the page global check for all visible elements. Best use $('#id').bootstrapTable('getSelections'); – Normie

Answer 2

To get the selected (checked) rows, use getSelections method.

Note that if you are using pagination, then you have to use the maintainMetaData table option.

Here is an example which displays selected product's names when user clicks on Show Selected Rows button:

var $table = $('#myTable');

function getRowSelections() {
  return $.map($table.bootstrapTable('getSelections'), function(row) {
    return row;
  })
}

$('#showSelectedRows').click(function() {
  var selectedRows = getRowSelections();
  var selectedItems = '\n';
  $.each(selectedRows, function(index, value) {
    selectedItems += value.name + '\n';
  });

  alert('The following products are selected: ' + selectedItems);
});

This to me is a much cleaner solution and works perfectly – Gallous

Awesome solution, it's clean and uses the own bootstrap table methods, works great! – Perice

@hooman is this works for server side pagination? – Hawthorn

@Rahul: of course not, JavaScript works on the frontend – Blueprint

Answer 3

Here is example give it to you :

HTML

<table id="table-style">
<thead>
    <tr>
        <th data-field="state" data-checkbox="true"></th>
        <th data-field="id">Item ID</th>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>
            <input type="checkbox" />
        </td>
        <td>5</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>
            <input type="checkbox" />
        </td>
        <td>15</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>
            <input type="checkbox" />
        </td>
        <td>10</td>
    </tr>
</thead>
</table>

<button>Add to cart</button>

JS

var arr;
$('button').click(function(){
  arr = $('#table-style').find('[type="checkbox"]:checked').map(function(){
      return $(this).closest('tr').find('td:nth-child(2)').text();
  }).get();

  console.log(arr);
});

sorry your solution doesn't matching for me, the table takes data from data-url="tables/data2.json" and check-boxes are automatically taken by bootstrap. Then how can I get Item ID value if checked particular? – Stone

Do you try already? Doesn't matter where the data came from and what important is at end of how DOM rendered your data into page. Inspect element on table then copy it structure then paste it in here for more specified solution – Unfavorable

yse I'm uses this only – Stone

@Vg. See DavidDomain answer. Those plugin have their own event function for that. – Unfavorable

Thanks for taking efforts, DavidDomain's answer is correct. – Stone

Yes, glad to hear that! – Unfavorable

Answer 4

Bootstrap table has a function getSelections

with the javascript funciton you can get all selected rows. (your checkobx fiels should be bound to data-field="state")

            function getIdSelections() {
            return $.map($table.bootstrapTable('getSelections'), function (row) {
                return row.Id
            });
        }
