Hi!

You can use a little bit of JavaScript to achieve that. An example I've created below should be helpful :)

import React, { useEffect } from 'react';
import { MDBContainer, MDBRow, MDBCol, MDBCard, MDBCardBody, MDBDataTableV5 } from 'mdbreact';

const DatatablePage = () => {
  const data = {...};

  useEffect(() => {
    setTimeout(() => {
      const tableCard = document.getElementById('test');
      const rows = tableCard.querySelectorAll('tr');

      rows.forEach((row) => {
        const val = parseInt(row.children[3].textContent);

        if (!isNaN(val) && val > 40) {
          row.children[3].style.backgroundColor = 'red';
        }
      });
    }, 4)
  });

  return (
    <MDBContainer className='mt-3'>
      <MDBRow className='py-3'>
        <MDBCol md='12'>
            <MDBCard>
              <MDBCardBody id='test'>
                <MDBDataTableV5
                  hover
                  entriesOptions={[5, 20, 25]}
                  entries={5}
                  pagesAmount={4}
                  data={data}
                  searchTop
                  searchBottom={false}
                />
              </MDBCardBody>
            </MDBCard>
        </MDBCol>
      </MDBRow>
    </MDBContainer>
  );
};

export default DatatablePage;

Keep coding!

the issue with this code is when a column is arranged in Ascending or descending order the value changes but the css remains as it is.

Hi!

You can move this setTimeout into the function and apply it to every item on the page you want. Consider code below :)

 const handleSort = () => {
    setTimeout(() => {
      const tableCard = document.getElementById('test');
      const rows = tableCard.querySelectorAll('tr');

      rows.forEach((row) => {
        const val = parseInt(row.children[3].textContent);

        if (!isNaN(val) && val > 40) {
          row.children[3].style.backgroundColor = 'red';
        } else {
          row.children[3].style.backgroundColor = 'white';
        }
      });
    }, 4);
  };

  useEffect(() => {
    handleSort();

    const itemsToHandle = ['.page-item', '.sorting', '.sorting_asc', '.sorting_desc'];

    itemsToHandle.forEach((item) => {
      document.querySelectorAll(item).forEach((el) => el.addEventListener('click', handleSort));
    });

    return () => {
      itemsToHandle.forEach((item) => {
        document.querySelectorAll(item).forEach((el) => el.removeEventListener('click', handleSort));
      });
    };
  }, []);

Keep coding!
