• Code corrections

  • Do not use encodeURIComponent to escape selectors. Use quotes instead. Remove quotes if they exist in the name
  • Do we need to check for if (dirty_td.length > 0) {
  • options.edit.editFunction() should probably be options.edit.editFunction -- and should probably be edit.function. Also call editFunction on .done() if it is defined. Not via complete:. Always use promises
  • if (options[name] == 'grid') name = 'table_grid' is duplicated
  • Rename compile_template() to render_template() and document it

• Documentation

  • Add row needs documentation
  • Actions are poorly explained
  • Add example of how to use icon function

• Usability

  • If the server responds with a Bad Request, show the actual error message
  • When using keyboard navigation, changed inputs are not detected as dirty
  • Loading indicator is not visible
  • Simulate server / network failure and test. If data is lost, user should be aware
  • After adding a row and saving, the row should remain where it was added (i.e. at the top of the table)
  • All functions must accept a single object with these names (unless it's impossible.)
    • data: the dataset from src
    • row: row data - dict of {name: value}
    • index: row index
    • name: column name
    • value: cell data value
    • link: cell link value
    • format: formatted cell display value
  • How can a developer add a delete button simply?

• Feature enhancements

  • Icon URLs are static. They must be based on the row data -- as a string template or function
