Topic: Number formatting in Datatable
Expected behavior Set a particular format required of datatable columns (e.g. number in currency format ($XXX,XXX.00) thousand separators, 2 decimal places) and ability to right-align those columns individually.
Actual behavior No obvious ability to apply horizontal alignment by column or specify a formatter function.
Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.) Similar ability to https://bootstrap-table.com/ would be good. They allow specification of a 'data-formatter' attribute per column which can call a JS formatter function. Also allows for setting a horizontal alignment option per column.
is there any update regarding this problematic?

MDB5 Datatables allows custom cell formatting: https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/standard/data/datatables/#section-cell-format
Keep coding, Marcin

Are there any predefined formats like date, currency?
Marcin Luczak staff commented 3 years ago
Hi @futureweb,
We do not provide any predefined formats for date or currency as this can be achieved with just JavaScript: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Intl/NumberFormat https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Intl/DateTimeFormat
Keep coding, Marcin
