Iterate Through DataSource In Mat-table Angular

I have problem with iterations through dataSource, where I have data for mat-table

Solution 1:

Another way how to iterate through dataSource elements:

  dataElement: DataElement[] = [
    {position: 1, name: 'Hy', weight: 1.0079, height: 3.33},
    {position: 2, name: 'He', weight: 4.0026, height: 4.21},
    {position: 3, name: 'Li', weight: 6.941, height: 10.1},
    {position: 4, name: 'Be', weight: 9.0122, height: 11},
    {position: 5, name: 'Bo', weight: 10.811, height: 85},
    {position: 6, name: 'Ca', weight: 12.0107, height: 8.5},
    {position: 7, name: 'Ni', weight: 14.0067, height: 85.1},
    {position: 8, name: 'Ox', weight: 15.9994, height: 0.85},
    {position: 9, name: 'Fl', weight: 18.9984, height: 123},
    {position: 10, name: 'Ne', weight: 2110.1797, height: 8}
  ];

  columns = [
    {columnDef: 'position', header: 'No.', cell: (element: DataElement) => `${element.position}`},
    {columnDef: 'name', header: 'Name', cell: (element: DataElement) => `${element.name}`},
    {columnDef: 'weight', header: 'Weight', cell: (element: DataElement) => `${element.weight}`},
    {columnDef: 'height', header: 'Height', cell: (element: DataElement) => `${element.height}`},
    {columnDef: 'result', header: 'Result', cell: (element: DataElement) => `${element.result}`}
  ];

  displayedColumns = this.columns.map(result => result.columnDef);

  dataSource = this.dataElement;

and finally the html:

<mat-table #table [dataSource]="dataSource">
  <ng-container *ngFor="let column of columns" [cdkColumnDef]="column.columnDef">
    <mat-header-cell *cdkHeaderCellDef>{{ column.header }}</mat-header-cell>
    <mat-cell *cdkCellDef="let row">{{ column.cell(row) }}</mat-cell>
  </ng-container>
  <mat-header-row *matHeaderRowDef="displayedColumns"></mat-header-row>
  <mat-row *matRowDef="let row; columns: displayedColumns"></mat-row>
</mat-table>

Solution 2:

Try using index with ngFor to track your iterations. I hope its helpful.

<div *ngFor="let element of arrayMain, let myIndex=index" id="{{element}}" class="my_item"> 
    <div>
        <span class="skuska">
            <span class="mat-subheading-2">{{element}}</span>
        </span>
    </div> 
    <mat-table #table [dataSource]="dataSource[myIndex]" matSort> 
        <ng-container matColumnDef="{{column.id}}" *ngFor="let column of columnNames"> 
            <mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef mat-sort-header>
                {{column.value}} 
            </mat-header-cell> 

            <!-- your same code -->

        </ng-container>
    </mat-table>
</div>
