Editing
Inline, row and batch editing, validation and undo/redo.
Bst-Table's editing is opt-in and layered: turn on enableEditing for the core edit
session, then add enableValidation, enableUndoRedo or enableRowActions as you need them.
Every edit routes through one callback — onDataChange (inline) or onSave (batch) — so your
backend sees a clean change-set, never a firehose of per-keystroke events.
Pick an edit mode with enableEditing={{ mode }}:
cell(default) — edit one cell, commit on Enter / blur. Snappy for quick corrections.row— edit a whole row, commit it as a unit (a Save / Discard bar appears).batch— every edit is an unsaved draft; the user reviews and saves them together in one backend call. Best for bulk data entry and spreadsheet-style workflows.
All three need getRowId (so edits target rows by id, never by index) and a place to send the
result. Start with enableEditing, then layer the rest.
