Table Columns

Table Columns are added to Rancher via the addTableColumn method.

An addition parameter can be provided which will be used to support the column when server-side pagination is enabled. For more information and other changes required to server-side pagination see here.

when adding a new column to a table on Rancher Dashboard, the default is for the table column to be added just before the Age column.

There's a new property in the configuration object called weight, on which you can specify in which position you want to add the column to. Position 0 will be the first in the table columns order.

plugin.addTableColumn(where: String, when: LocationConfig, column: TableColumn, paginationColumn?: PaginationTableColumn);
