Click a chart to filter in htmx

Click a slice and the grid narrows to it

chart.on('click', …)

This lets you click a slice or bar in a chart and narrows the grid to it. It turns a chart into a filter control, so a reader drills from the picture into the exact rows behind it with one click.

Building…

Loading a live grid…

This is the htmx version. A server-rendered table is upgraded in place, so the page is readable before any script runs and gains the full grid when the module loads, which suits a progressively enhanced app.

The configuration

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.latticegrid.dev/lattice-grid@1.107.0/lattice-grid.min.css">

<div id="chart" style="height: 260px"></div>
<!-- A real, server-rendered table: readable with JavaScript off. data-field on
     each header names the column that cell becomes, and data-id on each row is
     the key the grid carries it under. -->
