Introduction

In this article, we will create a reusable grid component for Blazor called BlazorGrid. It will display the user data in a grid and will support the client-side pagination.

Take a look at the final application.

.Net 6.x

Creating Blazor Library project

Creating BlazorGrid component

Now, we will add the component view page to our project. Right-click on the BlazorGridComponent project and then select Add >> New Item. An “Add New Item” dialog box will open; select “Web” from the left panel, then select “Razor” from templates panel, and name it BlazorGrid.razor. Click Add. Refer to the image below.

Create Blazor Server Web Application for test

Add Reference Razor Class Library project

Adding the BlazorGrid component to the Blazor project

Using BlazorGrid component 

Execution Demo 

.Net 5.x

Prerequisites

Here’s what you’ll need to use our Razor Class Library project with the Blazor framework:

Visual Studio 2019 with the ASP.NET and Web Development workload
.NET 5.0+ Framework

step 1:Create  a new Razor Class Library project

step 2:Create  a new Blazor Server Library project

source on github:https://github.com/iaspnetcore/iAspNetCore.RazorComponents/commit/7eeb63fdab78db8bae3ba68d1a2225e47697a288

Table.razor

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/blazor/components/templated-components?view=aspnetcore-5.0

step 1：Create a Table component (Table.razor)

<h3>Table</h3>

@typeparam TItem

<table class="table">
    <thead>
        <tr>@TableHeader</tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        @foreach (var item in Items)
        {
            <tr>@RowTemplate(item)</tr>
        }
    </tbody>
</table>

@code {
    [Parameter]
    public RenderFragment TableHeader { get; set; }

    [Parameter]
    public RenderFragment<TItem> RowTemplate { get; set; }

    [Parameter]
    public IReadOnlyList<TItem> Items { get; set; }
}

Step 2:Add Reference Razor Class Library project

Step 3:

@page "/fetchdata"

@using iAspNetCore.RazorComponents

@using BlazorServer.Data
@inject WeatherForecastService ForecastService

<h1>Table  Component Demo</h1>

<Table Items="forecasts">
    <TableHeader>
        <th>ID</th>
        <th>Name</th>
    </TableHeader>
    <RowTemplate>
        <td>@context.Date.ToShortDateString()</td>
        <td>@context.TemperatureC</td>
    </RowTemplate>
</Table>

Introduction
In this article, we will create a reusable grid component for Blazor called BlazorGrid. It will display the user data in a grid and supports client-side pagination.

Source Code

Get the source code from GitHub

Part one:Create  Razor Class Library project named with iAspNetCore.RazorComponents

step 1：Create new a new Razor Class Library project

From Visual Studio

From Visual Studio select Create new a new project.
Select Razor Class Library > Next.
Name the library (for example, "iAspNetCore.RazorComponents"), > Create. To avoid a file name collision with the generated view library, ensure the library name doesn't end in .Views.
Select Support pages and views if you need to support views. By default, only Razor Pages are supported. Select Create.

From the command line

Navigate to the folder where you want to create your project.
Open the command prompt or Windows PowerShell as an administrator.
Run the following command:

dotnet new razorclasslib -o iAspNetCore.RazorComponents

Demo in blazor server project

step 1:Create a Blazor server Web Application

step 2:Adding the BlazorGrid Component to the Blazor server Project

Select Add Reference... Then, select the BlazorGridComponent project and click OK

path:\src\demo\BlazorServer\BlazorServer.csproj

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web">

  <PropertyGroup>
    <TargetFramework>netcoreapp3.1</TargetFramework>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <ItemGroup>
    <ProjectReference Include="..\..\libraries\iAspNetCore.RazorComponents\iAspNetCore.RazorComponents.csproj" />
  </ItemGroup>

</Project>

step3:Using the BlazorGrid Component

Open TestApplication\Pages\FetchData.cshtml file. In the HTML section of the code put the following lines inside the else section.

path:\src\demo\BlazorServer\Pages\FetchData.razor

@using iAspNetCore.RazorComponents

<BlazorGrid Items="@forecasts" PageSize="4">
    <GridHeader>
        <th>Date</th>
        <th>TemperatureC</th>
        <th>TemperatureF</th>
        <th>Summary</th>
    </GridHeader>
    <GridRow>
