The Bootstrap Table plugin displays data in a tabular format, via data attributes or JavaScript.

Via data attributes

Activate bootstrap table without writing JavaScript. Set data-toggle="table" on a normal table.

<table data-toggle="table">
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th>Item ID</th>
            <th>Item Name</th>
            <th>Item Price</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td>1</td>
            <td>Item 1</td>
            <td>$1</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>2</td>
            <td>Item 2</td>
            <td>$2</td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>

We can also use remote url data by setting data-url="data1.json" on a normal table.

<table data-toggle="table" data-url="data1.json">
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th data-field="id">Item ID</th>
            <th data-field="name">Item Name</th>
            <th data-field="price">Item Price</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
</table>

Via JavaScript

Call a bootstrap table with id table with JavaScript.

<table id="table"></table>

$('#table').bootstrapTable({
    columns: [{
        field: 'id',
        title: 'Item ID'
    }, {
        field: 'name',
        title: 'Item Name'
    }, {
        field: 'price',
        title: 'Item Price'
    }],
    data: [{
        id: 1,
        name: 'Item 1',
        price: '$1'
    }, {
        id: 2,
        name: 'Item 2',
        price: '$2'
    }]
});

We can also use remote url data by setting url: 'data1.json'.

$('#table').bootstrapTable({
    url: 'data1.json',
    columns: [{
        field: 'id',
        title: 'Item ID'
    }, {
        field: 'name',
        title: 'Item Name'
    }, {
        field: 'price',
        title: 'Item Price'
    }, ]
});
