# With the DataTables TableTools [deprecated]

The `angular-datatables` also provides an API in order to make the plugin `TableTools` work with datatables.

You need to add the file `angular-datatables.tabletools.min.js` to your HTML file.

You also need to add the dependency `datatables.tabletools` to your Angular app.

See the API for the complete list of methods of the helper.

This extension has been retired and has been replaced by the Select extension and the Button extension.

angular.module('showcase.withTableTools', ['datatables', 'datatables.tabletools']) .controller('WithTableToolsCtrl', WithTableToolsCtrl); function WithTableToolsCtrl(DTOptionsBuilder, DTColumnBuilder) { var vm = this; vm.dtOptions = DTOptionsBuilder .fromSource('data.json') // Add Table tools compatibility .withTableTools('vendor/datatables-tabletools/swf/copy_csv_xls_pdf.swf') .withTableToolsButtons([ 'copy', 'print', { 'sExtends': 'collection', 'sButtonText': 'Save', 'aButtons': ['csv', 'xls', 'pdf'] } ]); vm.dtColumns = [ DTColumnBuilder.newColumn('id').withTitle('ID').withClass('text-danger'), DTColumnBuilder.newColumn('firstName').withTitle('First name'), DTColumnBuilder.newColumn('lastName').withTitle('Last name') ]; }
