Supporting Different Inputs

[frankV]

Is there a way to support different input types in individual cells? Like selects or checkboxes?

Looking at the code, I don't think there is an easy way to do this. The editor value is a function called at initialization time. I looked through the PRs here and didn't see anything offhand that does this. If there was a way to defer calling the editor function until you actually needed it, it might be possible to then craft a function that takes into account what you actually clicked and provide the appropriate editor at use time.

I could really use this functionality so I will play around with it and see if I can come up with something. I see this issue is almost three years old, and this repo looks kind of abandoned? So if you solved this problem with something else, I'd love to see it.

I have a version that does this in my branch: https://github.com/tungstencarbide/editable-table

wc-table-editor.js is a partial re-write with a little bit of cleanup and it should work as a drop-in replacement for the original. The README shows you how to specify a callback function that allows you to change the editor control. It Works For Me™ for my uses, but it's not been exhaustively tested.

HTH.
