What is the current behavior? (You can also link to an open issue here)
The dynamic addition of columns doesn't work out of the box. This is useful for reusability of a certain table, with the ability to add more columns.
What is the new behavior?
Users can pass extra columns to the table via
@Input()
in the form of aQueryList<DataTableColumnDirective>
. Users can also define an initial order for columns to override the initial position where they will be rendered.Refer to
Docs/Basic/Reusability
for examples on how to use this new functionality.Please note that Angular does not currently support content projection for multiple levels of components. So it is necessary to pass the columns via
@Input()
. This issue is tracked here:https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/8563
