How to invoke the function on clicking the hyperlink applied cells in JavaScript Spreadsheet?

This article explains how to invoke the JavaScript function after clicking the hyperlink-applied cells in a JavaScript Spreadsheet.

We’ve bound the click event for the hyperlink (“e-hyperlink” class) to cells in the created and beforeCellRender events. Then, we call the custom JavaScript function by preventing the spreadsheet’s default hyperlink action.

[HTML]

<div id="spreadsheet"></div>

[TS]

import { enableRipple } from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';
enableRipple(true);
import { Spreadsheet } from '@syncfusion/ej2-spreadsheet';
import * as dataSource from './default-data.json';

//Initialize Spreadsheet component
let spreadsheet: Spreadsheet = new Spreadsheet({
 sheets: [
   {
     name: 'Car Sales Report',
     ranges: [{ dataSource: (dataSource as any).defaultData }],
     columns: [{ width: 150 }, { width: 130 }, { width: 100 }],
   },
 ],
 created: (): void => {
   //Applies cell and number formatting to specified range of the active sheet
   spreadsheet.cellFormat(
     { fontWeight: 'bold', textAlign: 'center', verticalAlign: 'middle' },
     'A1:F1'
   );
   // Add hyperlink to the range of cells.
   spreadsheet.addHyperlink('https://www.google.com/', 'B2:B5');

   // Custom function to bind the click event.
   bindClickEvent();
 },
 beforeCellRender(args: CellRenderEventArgs): void {
   if (args.cell && args.cell.hyperlink) {
     // Custom function to bind the click event.
     bindClickEvent(args.element);
   }
 },
});

spreadsheet.appendTo('#spreadsheet');

function bindClickEvent(cellRenderElement?: HTMLElement): void {
 //Bind the JavaScript function for the hyperlink element.
 let elements: HTMLCollection = cellRenderElement
   ? cellRenderElement.getElementsByClassName('e-hyperlink')
   : document.getElementsByClassName('e-hyperlink');
 for (let i: number = 0; i < elements.length; i++) {
   elements[i].addEventListener('click', function (event) {
     // Prevent the default action performed.
     event.preventDefault();
     // Call your own custom function.
     handleElementClick(event.target as Element);
   });
 }
}

// Your custom JavaScript function
function handleElementClick(clickedElement: Element): void {
 alert('You have choosen the ' + clickedElement.textContent + ' car model.');
 // Add your desired functions here.
}
