Dropdown Menu in a Django-Tables2 cell
I have a table generated by Django-tables2 which all works fine. The first column is formatted as a button which removes the current line from the table. However I now want to have other functions such as copy etc. I could simply add a new button for each possible function but then I'd end up with a table of buttons and no room for data. So I would like to replace the first button with a dropdown menu of the various functions. It seems fairly straightforward to add the menu header, but I can't work out how or where to add my unordered list for the menu items. Has anyone tried to do this or does anyone know if this is even possible?
Code for my button as cell.
class TaskTable(ColumnShiftTable):
remove = tables.LinkColumn('tasks:deletetask', args=[A('pk')], text='Delete', orderable=False, empty_values=(), attrs={'th':{'class': 'nocolor'},'a':{'class':'btn btn-danger'}})
Code changed to be a menu option
class TaskTable(ColumnShiftTable):
menu = tables.LinkColumn(text='Options', attrs={'th':{'class': 'nocolor'},'a':{'href':'#','class':'dropdown-toggle','data-toggle':'dropdown'}})
How do I expand the second lot of code above to incorporate my menu items list.
