Angular JS UI-Grid Delete Row - angularjs

Question

I'm new to ui-grid and I'm trying to implement a table in AngularJS as shown in the picture below. I'm trying to select a row and delete it using a delete button on that particular row. The ui-grid documentation requires us to use the gridApi but I can't find sufficient documentation for the same.

Answer 1

Please see a working example of how to delete a row here.

The key is to use indexOf(row.entity) and not relying on row.index as it doesn't dynamically get updated.
$scope.deleteRow = function(row) {
var index = $scope.gridOptions.data.indexOf(row.entity);
$scope.gridOptions.data.splice(index, 1);
};
Generic approach
function deleteRow(row,grid) {
var i = grid.options.data.indexOf(row.entity);
grid.options.data.splice(i, 1);
}

You can use #Blousie solution as far as you adapt it to the newer API: https://github.com/angular-ui/ng-grid/blob/master/3.0_UPGRADE.md
Now "grid.appScope.edit(row.entity)" gives you access to your scope's "edit" function.
Something like this:
var removeTemplate = '<button class="btn btn-danger" ng-click="grid.appScope.removeRow(row)"><i class="glyphicon glyphicon-remove"></i></button>';
$scope.removeRow = function(row) {
var index = $scope.<yourDataModelProperty>.indexOf(row.entity);
if (index !== -1) {
$scope.<yourDataModelProperty>.splice(index, 1);
}
};

We need to use the $scope.grid.appScope. It is available in all templates. Besides that, you need to send the row object from the template, so that you can delete the row from the grid data.
jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/3ryLqa9e/4/
cellTemplate:'<button class="btn primary" ng-click="grid.appScope.Delete(row)">Delete Me</button>'
$scope.Delete = function(row) {
var index = $scope.gridOptions.data.indexOf(row.entity);
$scope.gridOptions.data.splice(index, 1);
};

Answer 4

The other solutions provided here didn't worked for me(May be because of my latest different version of ui-grid). So removing element from the scope array worked for me. This should even work with other versions of ui-grid because grid must be updated when the data changes. (Thanks to Angular!!!)
I am using lodash to remove element from array and here is sample code:
$scope.deleteRow = function(row){
_.remove($scope.gridData, {
id: row.id
});
};

Just remove the row you want to delete from ui-grids data source model using splice.
For example
$scope.myGridOptions.data.splice(<YOUR ROW INDEX HERE>, 1);
