By name: init-grid-extensions description: > Enable JavaScript grid extensions for a listing page. Extensions add sorting, filtering, bulk actions, column toggling, position reordering, and other interactive behaviors to the grid. Trigger: "add grid extensions for {Domain}", "enable grid extensions for {Domain}", "initialize grid JS for {Domain}". needs: [create-ts-entry-point, create-grid-definition] produces: "Grid extensions initialized in the listing entry point"
init-grid-extensions
Read @.ai/Component/Javascript/CONTEXT.md for the grid component and extension system.
Basic pattern
In the listing entry point (index.ts):
const grid = new window.prestashop.component.Grid('{domain}');
grid.addExtension(new window.prestashop.component.GridExtensions.SortingExtension());
grid.addExtension(new window.prestashop.component.GridExtensions.FiltersResetExtension());
grid.addExtension(new window.prestashop.component.GridExtensions.SubmitRowActionExtension());
grid.addExtension(new window.prestashop.component.GridExtensions.SubmitBulkActionExtension());
grid.addExtension(new window.prestashop.component.GridExtensions.BulkActionCheckboxExtension());
grid.addExtension(new window.prestashop.component.GridExtensions.ColumnTogglingExtension());
The grid ID must match the GRID_ID const from the PHP grid definition factory.
Available extensions
Core extensions (most grids need these)
| Extension | Purpose |
|---|---|
SortingExtension |
Clickable column headers for sorting |
FiltersResetExtension |
Reset button for grid filters |
FiltersSubmitButtonEnablerExtension |
Enable/disable filter submit button |
BulkActionCheckboxExtension |
Select-all and per-row checkboxes |
SubmitBulkActionExtension |
Submit bulk action form (enable/disable/delete) |
SubmitRowActionExtension |
Handle row action link clicks |
LinkRowActionExtension |
Navigate to row action URLs |
ColumnTogglingExtension |
Show/hide columns via dropdown |
Specialized extensions (add only when needed)
| Extension | Purpose | When to use |
|---|---|---|
AsyncToggleColumnExtension |
AJAX toggle for boolean columns | Entity has toggle status in grid |
PositionExtension |
Drag-and-drop row reordering | Entity has position column |
AjaxBulkActionExtension |
AJAX bulk actions (no page reload) | Performance-sensitive bulk ops |
ExportToSqlManagerExtension |
Export grid data to SQL manager | Grid needs SQL export |
ReloadListExtension |
Reload grid data without page refresh | AJAX-driven grid updates |
PreviewExtension |
Inline row preview expansion | Entity has preview/details panel |
ModalFormSubmitExtension |
Submit forms in modal dialogs | Delete confirmation modals |
BulkOpenTabsExtension |
Open multiple items in new tabs | Batch review workflows |
SubmitGridActionExtension |
Grid-level action buttons | Grid has toolbar actions (export, import) |
Domain-specific extensions
Some domains have custom extensions in subdirectories:
column/catalog/— catalog-specific column extensionsaction/row/— domain-specific row action extensions (e.g. customer delete with order check)
Check admin-dev/themes/new-theme/js/components/grid/extension/ for the full list.
Multiple grids on one page
For pages with multiple grids (e.g. Manufacturer with manufacturers + addresses):
const manufacturerGrid = new window.prestashop.component.Grid('manufacturer');
manufacturerGrid.addExtension(new SortingExtension());
// ...
const addressGrid = new window.prestashop.component.Grid('manufacturer_address');
addressGrid.addExtension(new SortingExtension());
// ...
Each grid instance gets its own set of extensions.
Rules
Conventions (multiple Grid instances pattern) are in Javascript/CONTEXT.md. Skill-specific reminders:
- Grid ID must match the PHP
GRID_IDconstant — mismatch means extensions don't bind - Only add extensions that match the grid definition — don't add PositionExtension without a PositionColumn
- AsyncToggleColumnExtension requires a matching AJAX toggle route in the controller
