How to add button column in MAUI DataGrid (SfDataGrid)?
The .NET MAUI DataGrid (SfDataGrid) allows loading of any views in the DataGridTemplateColumn. In this article, you can learn how to load the button for a specific column and perform any action on the button click.
C#
Create the ButtonCommand using the Execute method to delete the current row when performing the click action on the button.
public class ViewModel : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
private ObservableCollection<OrderInfo> orderInfo;
private ICommand buttonCommand;
public ObservableCollection<OrderInfo> OrderInfoCollection
{
get { return orderInfo; }
set { this.orderInfo = value; RaisePropertyChanged("OrderInfoCollection"); }
}
public ICommand ButtonCommand
{
get { return buttonCommand; }
set { buttonCommand = value; }
}
public ViewModel()
{
this.OrderInfoCollection = new ObservableCollection<OrderInfo>();
this.GenerateOrders();
this.ButtonCommand = new Command(DeleteRecord);
}
public void GenerateOrders()
{
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1001, "Ana Trujillo", "Mexico", "ANATR"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1002, "Ant Fuller", "Mexico", "ANTON"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1003, "Thomas Hardy", "UK", "AROUT"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1004, "Tim Adams", "Sweden", "BERGS"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1005, "Hanna Moos", "Germany", "BLAUS"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1006, "Andrew Fuller", "France", "BLONP"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1007, "Martin King", "Spain", "BOLID"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1008, "Lenny Lin", "France", "BONAP"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1009, "John Carter", "Canada", "BOTTM"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1010, "Laura King", "UK", "AROUT"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1011, "Ant Fuller", "Mexico", "ANTON"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1012, "Thomas Hardy", "UK", "AROUT"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1013, "Tim Adams", "Sweden", "BERGS"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1014, "Hanna Moos", "Germany", "BLAUS"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1015, "Andrew Fuller", "France", "BLONP"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1016, "Martin King", "Spain", "BOLID"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1017, "Lenny Lin", "France", "BONAP"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1018, "John Carter", "Canada", "BOTTM"));
orderInfo.Add(new OrderInfo(1019, "Laura King", "UK", "AROUT"));
}
private void DeleteRecord(object orderInfo)
{
this.OrderInfoCollection.Remove(orderInfo as OrderInfo);
}
#region INotifyPropertyChanged
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
private void RaisePropertyChanged(string name)
{
if (PropertyChanged != null)
this.PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(name));
}
#endregion
}
XAML
Create a DataGridTemplateColumn with a button inside and bind the Button’s Command property to the ViewModel’s ButtonCommand property.
<syncfusion:SfDataGrid x:Name="dataGrid" AutoGenerateColumnsMode="None" ItemsSource="{Binding OrderInfoCollection}" DefaultColumnWidth="130" GridLinesVisibility="Both" HeaderGridLinesVisibility="Both">
<syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Columns>
<syncfusion:DataGridNumericColumn MappingName="OrderID" HeaderText="ID"></syncfusion:DataGridNumericColumn>
<syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn MappingName="Customer" HeaderText="Name"></syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn>
<syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn MappingName="Country"></syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn>
<syncfusion:DataGridTemplateColumn MappingName="CustomerID">
<syncfusion:DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Button Text="Delete" Command="{Binding Source={x:Reference dataGrid},Path=BindingContext.ButtonCommand}" CommandParameter="{Binding .}"></Button>
</DataTemplate>
</syncfusion:DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
</syncfusion:DataGridTemplateColumn>
</syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Columns>
</syncfusion:SfDataGrid>Download the complete sample from GitHub.
