Solved: How to change the color of row based on cell value...

vvemula · ‎10-16-2020

I have table from the Dashboard, where I need to change color of whole row based on status. my table will look like this.

Version	Count	Status
win 2012	20	compliance
win 2008	35	Non-Compliance
Xen 2.4	40	compliance
win 2016	24	Non-Compliance

Look for result like this

Can someone able to help me please with XML. is it possible with out using the CSS or JS. Thank you.

Maybe there's a better way.

Nice technique @to4kawa

There's one minor variation you could do, which is add the colour directly to the mvfield and just use mvindex to get the colour.

      <table id="tableColorFinalRowBasedOnData2">
        <search>
          <query>| makeresults
| eval _raw="Version,Count,Status
win 2012,20,compliance
win 2008,35,Non-Compliance
Xen 2.4,40,compliance
win 2016,24,Non-Compliance"
| multikv forceheader=1
| table Version Count Status
| eval color=case(Status="compliance","#53A051",Status="Non-Compliance","#DC4E41")
| foreach Version Count Status [ eval &lt;&lt;FIELD&gt;&gt;=mvappend('&lt;&lt;FIELD&gt;&gt;',color)]
| fields - color</query>
          <earliest>-24h@h</earliest>
          <latest>now</latest>
          <sampleRatio>1</sampleRatio>
        </search>
        <format type="color" field="Version">
          <colorPalette type="expression">mvindex(value,1)</colorPalette>
        </format>
        <format type="color" field="Count">
          <colorPalette type="expression">mvindex(value,1)</colorPalette>
        </format>
        <format type="color" field="Status">
          <colorPalette type="expression">mvindex(value,1)</colorPalette>
        </format>
      </table>

in

mvindex(value,1)

, what does value represent? Couldn't find it in the documentation. Also, how did you account for the hex colors that are now a part of the results?

bowesmana · ‎07-14-2023

@makelovenotwar

The value in the mvindex expression applies to the field="X". The example makes a multivalue field for each of the fields you want to display and adds the colour as the second value of that field. The mvindex(value,1) takes that embedded colour value as the one to use for the diplay.

This seems to work ok but how do you keep the color values from displaying in your table of data?

Not still sure how it works, but you need the html section and the table id=

<dashboard version="1.1" theme="dark">
  <label>Table with color Based on Status</label>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <title>Compliance check</title>
      <html depends="$alwaysHideHTMLCSSPanel$">
        <style>
          #tableColorFinalRowBasedOnData table tbody td div.multivalue-subcell[data-mv-index="1"]{
            display: none;
          }
        </style>
      </html>
      <table id="tableColorFinalRowBasedOnData">
        <search>
          <query>
            | makeresults
            | eval _raw="Version,Count,Status
            win 2012,20,compliance
            win 2008,35,Non-Compliance
            Xen 2.4,40,compliance
            win 2016,24,Non-Compliance"
            | multikv forceheader=1
            | table Version Count Status
            | eval color=case(Status="compliance","#53A051",Status="Non-Compliance","#DC4E41")
            | foreach Version Count Status [ eval &lt;&lt;FIELD&gt;&gt;=mvappend('&lt;&lt;FIELD&gt;&gt;',color)]
            | fields - color
          </query>
        </search>
        <format type="color" field="Version">
          <colorPalette type="expression">mvindex(value,1)</colorPalette>
        </format>
        <format type="color" field="Count">
          <colorPalette type="expression">mvindex(value,1)</colorPalette>
        </format>
        <format type="color" field="Status">
          <colorPalette type="expression">mvindex(value,1)</colorPalette>
