simonbengtsson/jsPDF-AutoTable v3.0.0

on GitHub

BREAKING

The hooks API has been simplified. Note that colspans and rowspans now is supported so you can use that instead of the old drawCell hack.

• Removed hooks: createdCell, createdHeaderCell, drawHeaderCell, drawCell, drawRow, drawHeaderRow and addPageContent
• Added hooks: didParseCell, willDrawCell, didDrawCell and didDrawPage

All other changes should be backwards compatible, but it's a rewrite of the plugin so file an issue if you encounter something that did not work as expected after upgrading.

Migrating

Migrating to version 3.0 should be rather painless as most changes are backwards compatible. Everything was pretty much rewritten however so open an issue if you encounter any problems!

The removed hooks can be replaced as follows:

• drawCell, drawRow and similar → didDrawCell with potensial checks to only draw things if on the wanted section (head, body or foot)
• createdCell → didParseCell
• addPageContent → didDrawPage
