Swimlane in ASP.NET MVC Kanban control

21 Dec 202224 minutes to read

Swimlanes are horizontal categorizations of cards on the Kanban board. It is used for grouping of cards, which brings transparency to the workflow process.

Render swimlane row

Cards can be grouped based on KeyField and displayed in rows, which are separated by columns. It is mandatory to define the KeyField that is mapped from the datasource for rendering swimlane rows in the Kanban board.

@Html.EJS().Kanban("kanban").KeyField("Status").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.data).Columns(col =>
            {
           col.HeaderText("To Do").KeyField("Open").Add();
           col.HeaderText("In Progress").KeyField("InProgress").Add();
           col.HeaderText("Testing").KeyField("Testing").Add();
           col.HeaderText("Done").KeyField("Close").Add();
       }).CardSettings(card =>  {
           card.ContentField("Summary").HeaderField("Id");
       }).SwimlaneSettings(swim =>  {
           swim.KeyField("Assignee");

Custom row text

Customize the swimlane row header text by using the TextField property mapped from datasource.

NOTE

It is not mandatory to define the TextField to SwimlaneSettings. It will automatically consider the KeyField to swimlane row header text.

If the mapping TextField key is not present in the datasource, it will consider the swimlane KeyField as swimlane row header text.

Template

You can customize the Kanban swimlane row by using the Template property, which is specified within the SwimlaneSettings property. In this demo, the swimlane header is customized with HTML element.

Calculate cards count

Users can show or hide the cards count by swimlane row in header when enabling the ShowItemCount property, which is enabled by default on the Kanban board.

NOTE

Provided localization support for Items text.

In below demo, disabled on ShowItemCount property on rendering swimlane row without total count.

Enable frozen rows

Frozen rows provide an option to make the current swimlane row header text always visible on top of the content while scrolling the Kanban content. The swimlane header text will be changed dynamically, when you scroll to another swimlane row.

By default, the EnableFrozenRows property is set as false. If you wish to show the swimlane frozen rows, you can enable the EnableFrozenRows property.

NOTE

This feature support only when using Kanban content scrolling.
