The component extends the vuetable2,
placing a dropdown menu that allows the user to show and hide the grid columns.

Requirements

- Vue.js ^2.0.0

Installation

``bash
$ npm install vuetable2-column-visibility --save
`

Usage

First we need to import and register the vue-events
plugin somewhere in our project. We can do it in every file we use vuetable2
or simply in out App.vue:

`javascript
import Vue from 'vue'
import VueEvents from 'vue-events'
Vue.use(VueEvents)
`

Once registered vue-events, we can access the $events prototype object in
our Vue instance. This object is a centralized event hub that we can use
throughout the Vue instance and it provides event related functions.

Now, we must import and register vuetable2-column-visibility:

`javascript

`

Notice that we told to the component to listen to the column-visibility:changed
event, and then execute onColumnVisibilityChanged. This is necessary in order to
the vuetable2 re-render the columns that were shown or hidden.

Now we can use the component in our HTML:

`html

api-url="http://localhost:8000/path"
:fields="fields">

`

Where the fields variable stores the grid fields, for example:

`javascript
fields: [
{
name: 'first_name',
title: 'First name'
},
{
name: 'last_name',
title: 'Last name'
},
{
name: '__slot:id',
title: 'Actions',
showOnVisibilityMenu: false
},
],
`

We can define a showOnVisibilityMenu property in the column object to control
whether the column will appear in the visibility menu or not. By default,
showOnVisibilityMenu is set to true. In this case, the first_name and
last_name columns will appear on the menu, while __slot:id` wont.
