Getting started with JavaScript Kanban control

08 May 2023 / 4 minutes to read

This section briefly explains how to create Kanban component and configure its available functionalities in TypeScript using the Essential JS 2 quickstart seed repository.

Dependencies

The following list of dependencies are required to use the Kanban component in your application:

Copied to clipboard
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-kanban
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-base
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-buttons
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-data
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-dropdowns
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-icons
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-inputs
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-layouts
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-lists
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-navigations
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-popups
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-splitbuttons

Installation and configuration

Clone the Essential JS2 quickstart application project from GitHub using the command prompt and install the necessary npm packages using the following command line scripts.

Copied to clipboard
git clone https://github.com/syncfusion/ej2-quickstart.git quickstart
cd quickstart
npm install

By default, the project is pre-configured with all the EJ2 dependencies. For better understanding, remove all the dependencies from src/system.config.js to get started with the Kanban component.

Map the Kanban component’s dependency packages in system.config.js configuration file.

[src/system.config.js]

Copied to clipboard
System.config({
    paths: {
        'syncfusion:': './node_modules/@syncfusion/',
    },
    map: {
        app: 'app',

        //Syncfusion packages mapping
        "@syncfusion/ej2-base": "syncfusion:ej2-base/dist/ej2-base.umd.min.js",
        "@syncfusion/ej2-buttons": "syncfusion:ej2-buttons/dist/ej2-buttons.umd.min.js",
        "@syncfusion/ej2-data": "syncfusion:ej2-data/dist/ej2-data.umd.min.js",
        "@syncfusion/ej2-dropdowns": "syncfusion:ej2-dropdowns/dist/ej2-dropdowns.umd.min.js",
        "@syncfusion/ej2-inputs": "syncfusion:ej2-inputs/dist/ej2-inputs.umd.min.js",
        "@syncfusion/ej2-splitbuttons": "syncfusion:ej2-splitbuttons/dist/ej2-splitbuttons.umd.min.js",
        "@syncfusion/ej2-lists": "syncfusion:ej2-lists/dist/ej2-lists.umd.min.js",
        "@syncfusion/ej2-navigations": "syncfusion:ej2-navigations/dist/ej2-navigations.umd.min.js",
        "@syncfusion/ej2-layouts": "syncfusion:ej2-layouts/dist/ej2-layouts.umd.min.js",
        "@syncfusion/ej2-popups": "syncfusion:ej2-popups/dist/ej2-popups.umd.min.js",
        "@syncfusion/ej2-kanban": "syncfusion:ej2-kanban/dist/ej2-kanban.umd.min.js"
    },
    packages: {
        'app': { main: 'app', defaultExtension: 'js' }
    }
});

System.import('app');

Kanban CSS files are available in the ej2-kanban and its sub-component package folder. This can be referenced in your application using the following code.

[src/styles/styles.css].

Copied to clipboard
@import '../../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-base/styles/material.css';
@import '../../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-buttons/styles/material.css';
@import '../../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-dropdowns/styles/material.css';
@import '../../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-inputs/styles/material.css';
@import '../../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-layouts/styles/material.css';
@import '../../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-navigations/styles/material.css';
@import '../../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-popups/styles/material.css';
@import '../../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-kanban/styles/material.css';

In case, if you want to make use of the combined CSS files of entire components, then you can avail it from the root folder of Essential JS 2 package and reference it with the following code.

@import '../../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2/material.css';

Initialize the Kanban

Add the HTML div tag defined with an id attribute to your index.html file, where the Kanban element is initialized.

[src/index.html]

</head>
<body>
    <!--Element where the Kanban will be rendered-->
    <div id="Kanban"></div>
</body>
</html>

Import the Kanban component to your app.ts file as follows and initialize it to the element defined with an id Kanban in the index.html file.

[src/app/app.ts]

Copied to clipboard
import { Kanban } from '@syncfusion/ej2-kanban';

let kanbanObj: Kanban = new Kanban({
    columns: [
        { headerText: 'Backlog', keyField: 'Open' },
        { headerText: 'In Progress', keyField: 'InProgress' },
        { headerText: 'Testing', keyField: 'Testing' },
        { headerText: 'Done', keyField: 'Close' }
    ]
});
kanbanObj.appendTo('#Kanban');

Now, run the application in the browser using the following command.

Copied to clipboard
npm start

The output will display the empty Kanban.

Populating cards

To populate the empty Kanban with cards, define the local JSON data or remote data using the dataSource property. To define dataSource, the mandatory fields in JSON object should be relevant to keyField. In the following example, you can see the cards defined with default fields such as ID, Summary, and Status.

Enable swimlane

Swimlane can be enabled by mapping the fields swimlaneSettings.keyField to appropriate column name in dataSource. This enables the grouping of the cards based on the mapped column values.
