Function: createTableHook()

function createTableHook<TFeatures, TTableComponents, TCellComponents, THeaderComponents>(__namedParameters): CreateTableHookResult<TFeatures, TTableComponents, TCellComponents, THeaderComponents>;

Defined in: createTableHook.tsx:693

Creates a custom table hook with pre-bound components for composition.

This is the table equivalent of TanStack Form's createFormHook. It allows you to:

Define features, row models, and default options once, shared across all tables
Register reusable table, cell, and header components
Access table/cell/header instances via context in those components
Get a useAppTable hook that returns an extended table with App wrapper components
Get a createAppColumnHelper function pre-bound to your features

Type Parameters

TFeatures

TFeatures extends TableFeatures

TTableComponents

TTableComponents extends Record<string, ComponentType<any>>

TCellComponents

TCellComponents extends Record<string, ComponentType<any>>

THeaderComponents

THeaderComponents extends Record<string, ComponentType<any>>

Parameters

__namedParameters

CreateTableHookOptions<TFeatures, TTableComponents, TCellComponents, THeaderComponents>

Returns

CreateTableHookResult<TFeatures, TTableComponents, TCellComponents, THeaderComponents>

    sortFns,
    filterFns,
  }),
  tableComponents: { PaginationControls, RowCount },
  cellComponents: { TextCell, NumberCell },
  headerComponents: { SortIndicator, ColumnFilter },

// Create column helper with TFeatures already bound
const columnHelper = createAppColumnHelper<Person>()

// components/table-components.tsx

  return <table.Subscribe selector={(s) => s.pagination}>...</table.Subscribe>
}

// features/users.tsx
function UsersTable({ data }: { data: Person[] }) {
  const table = useAppTable({
    columns,
    data, // TData inferred from Person[]
  })
