Aggregates in JavaScript Grid control

14 Apr 2021 / 7 minutes to read

Aggregate values are displayed in the footer, group footer, or group caption of the Grid. It can be configured through aggregates property. Field and type are the minimum properties required to represent an aggregate column.

To use the aggregate feature, you have to inject the Aggregate module.

By default, the aggregate value can be displayed in the footer, group, and caption cells. To show the aggregate value in one of the cells, use the footerTemplate, groupFooterTemplate, or groupCaptionTemplate property.

Built-in aggregate types

The aggregate type should be specified in the type property to configure an aggregate column.

The built-in aggregates are,

Sum
Average
Min
Max
Count
Truecount
Falsecount

Multiple aggregates can be used for an aggregate column by setting the type property with an array of aggregate types.

Multiple types for a column is supported only when one of the aggregate templates is used.

Footer aggregate value is calculated for all the rows, and it is displayed in the footer cells. Use the footerTemplate property to render the aggregate value in footer cells.

The aggregate values must be accessed inside the template using their corresponding type name.

Custom aggregate

To calculate the aggregate value with your own aggregate functions, use the custom aggregate option. To use custom aggregation, specify the type as Custom, and provide the custom aggregate function in the customAggregate property.

The custom aggregate function will be invoked with different arguments for total and group aggregations.

Total aggregation: The custom aggregate function will be called with the whole data and current AggregateColumn object.
Group aggregation: This will be called with the current group details and AggregateColumn object.

To access the custom aggregate value inside the template, use the key as Custom.

Reactive aggregate update

When using batch editing, the aggregate values will be refreshed on every cell save. The footer, group footer, and group caption aggregate values will be refreshed.

Adding a new record to the grouped grid will not refresh the aggregate values.

Refresh aggregates in inline edit mode

By default, reactive aggregate update is not supported by inline and dialog edit modes as it is not feasible to anticipate the value change event for every editor. But, you can refresh the aggregates manually in the inline edit mode using the refresh method of aggregate module.

In the following code, the input event for the Freight column editor has been registered and the aggregate value has been refreshed manually.
