Hide/show columns

[danisal]

Hey @nick-keller , first of all, congratulations on the great library!

And second I saw that it is still in development of new features and I would like to ask if there is a way (or plan) to hide/show columns? Like when we click on the column name for the context menu and show an option to hide a particular column?

Thanks in advance!

Hey @danisal and thx for the kind words.

Good news, this is already feasible!
Bad news, it requires a little bit of work on your side.

• First, make sure to use the dynamic version of DSG to be able to add / remove columns on the fly.
• Then you'll need to have a state to hold a Set (or Array) of hidden columns. You could use their ids or name.
• Based on that Set of hidden columns, build the list of visible column objects to pass to DSG (use a useMemo for performance)

The way you allow the user to toggle columns is up to you, it could be a menu to the side, or you could use the context menu that is entirely customizable.
