Add Server-Side Pagination Support for Custom Visualization Widgets with Grid Type in Reveal BI

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I'm looking to add server-side pagination for Custom Visualization widgets in Reveal BI. Currently, it's challenging to manage large datasets effectively without built-in pagination options, particularly when dealing with Grid type visualizations, which are rendered as HTML tables.

I propose adding server-side pagination support for Custom Visualization widgets. Specifically:

• Add a chartType to specify the visualization type:

storedChartTypes.forEach((chartType: {title: string, url: string, icon: string, groups: string[]}) => {
    revealView.chartTypes.push({
        title: chartType.title,
        url: `${window.location.origin}/${chartType.url}`,
        icon: `${CONFIG.BASE_URL}/${chartType.icon}`,
        chartType: "Grid",
        groups: chartType.groups
    });
});

When chartType is set to Grid, additional settings should appear in the widget Settings:

• Show Paged Row (boolean)

• Paged Rows Size (number)

If the above configuration is present, reuse the existing pagination flow as found in GridVisualizationDataSpecType.

Additional nice-to-have functionality

• The ability to customize the pagination UI component.

• The ability to define Custom Widget Settings Parameters, based on chartType: Grid or other types.

This feature would enhance flexibility and improve usability when working with large datasets in Custom Visualization widgets.

Thank you for considering this feature request!
