grid.js

grid.js is a jQuery plugin for displaying and manipulating tabular data. It is a fork of jqGrid, or to be more specific, a fork of the last version before the licence change. Now you could argue that the licence change was invalid, since Trirand did not get permission of all the copyright holders and continue using it under the old licence, but this is really an inconvenient situation unless you're looking for a fight.

So as an alternative, the MIT/GPL-licenced version is available in this repo. It is currently a work in progress, so the documentation/website is very incomplete (but since the code is based on jqGrid, the original jqGrid documentation and demos can still be used).

The idea is to turn this repo into a community-driven and free version of jqGrid. To facilitate this, we've switched to Grunt as it is much more common and easier to handle, and we'll keep documentation in the repo itself so it can be managed with Github workflows. On the same note please feel free to take on any of our outstanding issues.

Enjoy!

Development Setup

To use grid.js, you can simply download the files from the dist/ folder. For a deveploment setup, you will need npm and bower installed. Once you have them, clone this repo and change into the new directory:

git clone https://github.com/openpsa/grid.js
cd grid.js/

Then, install the dependencies:

npm install
bower install

Afterwards, you can build like this:

grunt --force

(The force switch is currently necessary because of some jshint warnings)

You can generate the compressed files with

grunt compile

The documentation can be built with

grunt docs

For development, use grunt watch to build continuously (both documentation and code):

grunt watch --force
