I want to remove the check all/none checkbox from a Reactable table. In this image, I do not want the orange circled checkbox to appear.
Using Chrome Inspector, I examine the css of this checkbox and set display: none;
This removes the entire column of checkboxes. How do I remove just this one?
R Script
library(reactable)
reactable(iris,
onClick = "select",
selection = "multiple")
U can append some javascript code and make it run when the reactable is rendered: ie
// Hide the select all check box
document.querySelector('.rt-select-input[aria-label="Select all rows"]').parentElement.parentElement.style.display = "none";
library(reactable)
library(htmlwidgets)
e<-reactable(iris,
onClick = "select",
selection = "multiple")
javascript <- JS('
document.querySelector(\'.rt-select-input[aria-label="Select all rows"]\').parentElement.parentElement.style.display="none";
')
(p <- prependContent(e,onStaticRenderComplete(javascript)))
In order to streamline the process and specifically target the wanted checkbox (as the aforementioned method would be unsuccessful when handling 2 tables in the same page) I wrote a function that'll dynamically target the wanted checkbox:
hide.select.all <- function(x){
javascript <- JS(paste0('
let id = null;
for (const script of document.querySelectorAll("script[data-for]")) {
if(script.text.includes("', x$x$tag$attribs$dataKey ,'")) {
id="#" + script.dataset.for;
break;
}
}
if(id) document.querySelector(id + \' .rt-select-input[aria-label="Select all rows"]\').parentElement.parentElement.style.display="none";
'))
prependContent(x,onStaticRenderComplete(javascript))
}
hide.select.all(e)
