Bootstrap-table how to use exportOptions

Question

I want to change the filename that is used when using the Table Export extension. I know I can use the exportOptions to add {fileName:'custom_file_name'}. But I don't know where to put this.

I tried:

data-export-options="{fileName:'custom_file_name'}"

and I tried to add as a method:

$('#table').bootstrapTable('exportOptions', {fileName: 'custom_file_name'})

But then I get an error: Uncaught Error: Unknown method: exportOptionsenter code here

What am I missing?

Answer 1

You can add the following as a html table attribute:

data-export-options='{"fileName": "desired filename here"}'

Make sure you have the proper quotes and that the key is fileName with camelCase.

Answer 2

Use like this:

$('#table').bootstrapTable({
    exportOptions: {
        fileName: 'custom_file_name'
    }
});

Now we do not support via data-attributes, docs: http://bootstrap-table.wenzhixin.net.cn/extensions/#table-export.
