Async Context Menus
By ·
Infinite Table 6.1.0 introduces support for lazy loading context menus. This is useful when you need to load your context menu items conditionally, from the backend, based on the cell's value or other conditions.
How it works
Starting with version 6.1.0, the getCellContextMenuItems and getContextMenuItems props can now return a Promise that resolves to an array of MenuItem objects (or an object with items and columns properties, if you need to also configure the columns).
Right click any cell in the DataGrid - the context menu will be displayed with a delay of 400ms.
Note
The getCellContextMenuItems is called with an object that gives you access to all the info regarding the current right-clicked cell - both the row information and the current column. You can use that to decide whether you want to return a menu immediately or to fetch some data from the server and display the context menu after the server response comes in.
