Overview

A custom id can be passed in together with other attributes to the hot-table wrapper element. It will be applied to the root Handsontable element, allowing further customization of the table.

Example

// file: app.component.ts import { Component } from '@angular/core'; import Handsontable from 'handsontable/base'; @Component({ selector: 'app-root', template: ` <div> <hot-table [settings]="hotSettings" [hotId]="id"> </hot-table> </div> `, }) export class AppComponent { hotSettings: Handsontable.GridSettings = { startRows: 5, startCols: 5, colHeaders: true, stretchH: 'all', height: 'auto', licenseKey: 'non-commercial-and-evaluation' }; id = 'my-custom-id'; } /* file: app.component.ts */ import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'; import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'; import { HotTableModule } from '@handsontable/angular'; import { registerAllModules } from 'handsontable/registry'; // register Handsontable's modules registerAllModules(); @NgModule({ imports: [ BrowserModule, HotTableModule ], declarations: [ AppComponent ], bootstrap: [ AppComponent ] }) export class AppModule { } import { platformBrowserDynamic } from '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic'; platformBrowserDynamic() .bootstrapModule(AppModule) .catch(err => { console.error(err) }); <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/handsontable@12.2/dist/handsontable.full.min.js"></script> <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/handsontable@12.2/dist/handsontable.full.min.css" /> <script src="https://handsontable.com/docs/12.2/scripts/fixer.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/rxjs@6/bundles/rxjs.umd.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/core-js@2/client/core.min.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/zone.js@0.9/dist/zone.min.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@angular/compiler@8/bundles/compiler.umd.min.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@angular/core@8/bundles/core.umd.min.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@angular/common@8/bundles/common.umd.min.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@angular/platform-browser@8/bundles/platform-browser.umd.min.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@angular/platform-browser-dynamic@8/bundles/platform-browser-dynamic.umd.min.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@handsontable/angular@12.2/bundles/handsontable-angular.umd.min.js"></script> <app-root></app-root>
