How to add a column for displaying small size of img inside backgrid.

Question

I want to add a column field inside backgrid to display img and other information related to that user.

var columns = [

    { name: "id", label: "Id", cell: "integer",editable: false },

    { name: "active_image", label: "Image", cell: "uri",editable: false },

    { name: "worker_id", label: "Worker", cell: "string",editable: false },

    { name: "city", label: "City", cell: "string",editable: false }

    ];

Answer 1

I would recommend you to create new image cell type. However, the simplest solution is to extend the basic Backgrid.Cell:

{
  name: 'active_image',
  label: 'Image',
  editable: false,
  cell: Backgrid.Cell.extend({
    render: function() {
      var src = this.model.get(this.column.get('name'));
      this.$el.html($('<img>').attr('src', src));
      return this;
    }
  })
}

The render function here is rather simplified (and not tested), just to give the idea of howto.
