# With the DataTables TableTools

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

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

angular.module('datatablesSampleApp', ['datatables']).controller('withTableToolsCtrl', function ($scope, DTOptionsBuilder, DTColumnBuilder) { $scope.dtOptions = DTOptionsBuilder .fromSource('data.json') // Add Table tools compatibility .withTableTools('https://github.com/DataTables/TableTools/raw/master/swf/copy_csv_xls_pdf.swf') .withTableToolsButtons([ 'copy', 'print', { 'sExtends': 'collection', 'sButtonText': 'Save', 'aButtons': ['csv', 'xls', 'pdf'] } ]); $scope.dtColumns = [ DTColumnBuilder.newColumn('id').withTitle('ID').withClass('text-danger'), DTColumnBuilder.newColumn('firstName').withTitle('First name'), DTColumnBuilder.newColumn('lastName').withTitle('Last name') ]; });
