Conceal or style the filter panel in a DT datatable

Here is an example to consider:

library(DT)
L <- 10
datatable(
  data.frame(
    var1 = sapply(1:L, function(x) 
      paste("<X>",paste0(x,
                         letters, 
                         LETTERS, 
                         "\n", 
                         collapse=" "))),
    var2 = round(rnorm(L),2)
  ) 
)

Below is the output for reference:

I am looking for a way to either hide or customize (change background color and font family) the top section of the output that includes "Show X entries" along with the "Search" tab. While I have managed to format rows and headers using custom CSS and JS code within the options of datatable, I am struggling with handling the filter pane.

If it matters, I plan to incorporate these outputs into a Shiny web-app.

Thank you in advance for any assistance.

Answer №1

Utilize the dom parameter to specify which parts of the datatable should be displayed and in what order.

For additional details, check out: https://datatables.net/reference/option/dom

Adjust the overall style of the entire datatable using the style parameter. Options include: "default", "bootstrap", "bootstrap4", "foundation", "jqueryui", "material", "semanticui", "uikit".

More information available here: https://datatables.net/manual/styling/

library(DT)
L <- 10

dataset <- data.frame(
    var1 = sapply(1:L, function(x) 
      paste("<X>",paste0(x,
                         letters, 
                         LETTERS, 
                         "\n", 
                         collapse=" "))),
    var2 = round(rnorm(L),2)
  )

  datatable(dataset, style = 'bootstrap', options = list(
    dom = 't')
)
