I'm trying to convert a CDK data-table to a Material Design styled data-table (see: https://material.angular.io/components/table/overview), but when I change the cdk prefixes to md, I get the following error...
Uncaught Error: Template parse errors: Can't bind to 'mdHeaderRowDef' since it isn't a known property of 'md-header-row'. 1. If 'md-header-row' is an Angular component and it has 'mdHeaderRowDef' input, then verify that it is part of this module. 2. If 'md-header-row' is a Web Component then add 'CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA' to the '@NgModule.schemas' of this component to suppress this message. 3. To allow any property add 'NO_ERRORS_SCHEMA' to the '@NgModule.schemas' of this component.
Every answer I've found online tells me that I need to import CdkTableModule, but I have done so & cdk tables work perfectly.
import {Component, OnInit, ViewChild} from '@angular/core';
import {DataSource} from '@angular/cdk';
import { CdkTableModule } from '@angular/cdk';
import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Observable';
import 'rxjs/add/observable/of';
import 'rxjs/add/operator/first';
import 'rxjs/add/operator/startWith';
import 'rxjs/add/operator/catch';
import 'rxjs/add/operator/switchMap';
import 'rxjs/add/observable/merge';
import 'rxjs/add/observable/of';
import 'rxjs/add/observable/interval';
import 'rxjs/add/operator/map';
I am importing CdkTableModule, and when I use the cdk prefix, the table displays as expected...
<md-table [dataSource]="dataSource">
<ng-container cdkColumnDef="number">
<md-header-cell *cdkHeaderCellDef> number </md-header-cell>
<md-cell *cdkCellDef="let element"><a routerLink="{{element.number}}"> {{element.number}} </a></md-cell>
</ng-container>
<ng-container cdkColumnDef="book">
<md-header-cell *cdkHeaderCellDef> book </md-header-cell>
<md-cell *cdkCellDef="let element"> {{element.book}} </md-cell>
</ng-container>
<md-header-row *cdkHeaderRowDef="['number', 'book']"></md-header-row>
<md-row *cdkRowDef="let row; columns: ['number', 'book']"></md-row>
</md-table>
RESULT: So far so good... but if i change "cdk" to "md"
<md-table [dataSource]="dataSource">
<ng-container mdColumnDef="number">
<md-header-cell *mdHeaderCellDef> number </md-header-cell>
<md-cell *mdCellDef="let element"><a routerLink="{{element.number}}"> {{element.number}} </a></md-cell>
</ng-container>
<ng-container mdColumnDef="book">
<md-header-cell *mdHeaderCellDef> book </md-header-cell>
<md-cell *mdCellDef="let element"> {{element.book}} </md-cell>
</ng-container>
<md-header-row *mdHeaderRowDef="['number', 'book']"></md-header-row>
<md-row *mdRowDef="let row; columns: ['number', 'book']"></md-row>
</md-table>
I've tried importing other modules... including MdTableModule & MdTable, but that hasn't proven helpful either. Any ideas?
P.S. Here's my main app.module.ts import statement in case that helps
imports: [
BrowserModule,
FormsModule,
HttpModule,
AppRoutingModule,
ReactiveFormsModule,
BrowserAnimationsModule,
MdAutocompleteModule,
MdButtonModule,
MdButtonToggleModule,
MdCardModule,
MdCheckboxModule,
MdChipsModule,
MdTableModule,
MdDatepickerModule,
MdDialogModule,
MdExpansionModule,
MdGridListModule,
MdIconModule,
MdInputModule,
MdListModule,
MdMenuModule,
MdCoreModule,
MdPaginatorModule,
MdProgressBarModule,
MdProgressSpinnerModule,
MdRadioModule,
MdRippleModule,
MdSelectModule,
MdSidenavModule,
MdSlideToggleModule,
MdSliderModule,
MdSnackBarModule,
MdSortModule,
MdTabsModule,
MdToolbarModule,
MdTooltipModule,
MdNativeDateModule,
CdkTableModule,
StyleModule
]
After another hour of fiddling with things, I ran
npm update --save
and updated @angular/cdk and @angular/material to 2.0.0-beta.10
in package.json
"@angular/material": "^2.0.0-beta.10",
"@angular/cdk": "^2.0.0-beta.10",
This broke some things, so I had to dig around and needed to update imports of DataSource and CdkTableModule
import { CdkTableModule} from '@angular/cdk/table';
import {DataSource} from '@angular/cdk/table';
component.html
<md-table [dataSource]="dataSource">
<ng-container mdColumnDef="number">

</ng-container>

Phew!
