ng2-smart-table - How to Open Record in a Different View - ng2-smart-table

Question

I was able to add a custom action to the table but I still don't know how to use that custom action to open a record in a different page/modal when it's clicked. How to assign the ID to that record row? How to pass it to a different view?
in the component.html
<ng2-smart-table [settings]="settings" [source]="source" (custom)="onCustomAction($event)"></ng2-smart-table>
in the component.ts
settings = {
mode: 'external',
hideSubHeader: true,
actions: {
position: 'right',
add: false,
edit:false,
delete: false,
custom: [
{ name: 'viewRecord', title: '<i class="far fa-file-alt"></i>'},
],
},
columns: {
firstName: {
title: 'First Name',
type: 'string',
},
lastName: {
title: 'Last Name',
type: 'string',
},
username: {
title: 'Username',
type: 'string',
},
email: {
title: 'E-mail',
type: 'string',
},
age: {
title: 'Age',
type: 'number',
},
},
};
onCustomAction(event): void {
//WHAT TO DO HERE?
}

Answer 1

SOLVED
onCustomAction(event): void {
//get action name to switch in case of different actions.
var actionName = event.action;
//get row id.
var id = event.data.id;
//navigate to edit/view url.
this.router.navigate(url)
}

Answer 2

your can inject NbdialogService in constuctor to open in dialog/Modal
private dialogService: NbDialogService
onCustomAction(event) {
switch (event.action) {
case 'view-details':
this.service.getDetails(event.data.Id)
.pipe(
tap(res => {
this.dialogService.open(UserDetailsComponent, { // inject your component will be displayed in modal
context: {
details: res,
},
});
})
).subscribe();
break;
default:
console.log('Not Implemented Action');
break;
}
or navigate sure as you did by this.router.navigate(url)
