Magento 2: How to Add a Custom Button to Open Custom Popup in Admin Grid

Hello Magento Friends,

In today’s blog, I will explain How to Add a Custom Button to Open a Custom Popup in Magento 2 Admin Grid.

In Magento 2, extending the admin grid functionality can significantly improve the admin experience by making data management more efficient. One useful enhancement is adding a custom button that opens a custom popup. This tutorial will guide you through the process of adding a custom button to an admin grid and configuring it to open a custom popup.

Steps to Add a Custom Button to Open Custom Popup in Magento 2 Admin Grid:

Step 1: Create the customer_listing.xml file in given below path.

{{magento_root}}\app\code\Vendor\Extension\view\adminhtml\ui_component\customer_listing.xml

Then add the code as follows

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<listing xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Ui:etc/ui_configuration.xsd">
    <columns name="customer_columns">
        <actionsColumn name="btn_column" class="Vendor\Extension\Ui\Component\Listing\Columns\Button">
            <argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
                <item name="config" xsi:type="array">
                    <item name="component" xsi:type="string">Vendor_Extension/js/grid/columns/button</item>
                    <item name="indexField" xsi:type="string">entity_id</item>
                    <item name="sortable" xsi:type="boolean">false</item>
                    <item name="label" xsi:type="string" translate="true">Custom label</item>
                    <item name="sortOrder" xsi:type="number">999</item>
                </item>
            </argument>
        </actionsColumn>
    </columns>
</listing>

Step 2: Create a Button.php in the following path.

{{magento_root}}\app\code\Vendor\Extension\Ui\Component\Listing\Columns\Button.php 

Now include the below-mentioned piece of code

<?php

namespace Vendor\Extension\Ui\Component\Listing\Columns;

use Magento\Framework\UrlInterface;
use Magento\Framework\View\Element\UiComponent\ContextInterface;
use Magento\Framework\View\Element\UiComponentFactory;
use Magento\Ui\Component\Listing\Columns\Column;

class Button extends Column
{
    /**
     *@var UrlInterface
     */    protected $urlBuilder;
    /**
     * Constructor
     *
     * @param ContextInterface $context
     * @param UiComponentFactory $uiComponentFactory
     * @param UrlInterface $urlBuilder
     * @param array $components
     * @param array $data      
     */    public function __construct(
        ContextInterface $context,
        UiComponentFactory $uiComponentFactory,
        UrlInterface $urlBuilder,
        array $components = [],
        array $data = []
    ) {
        $this->urlBuilder = $urlBuilder;
        parent::__construct($context, $uiComponentFactory, $components, $data);
    }
    /**      
     * Prepare Data Source
     * 
     * @param array $dataSource
     * @return array
     */    public function prepareDataSource(array $dataSource)
    {
        if (isset($dataSource['data']['items'])) {
            $fieldName = $this->getData('name');
            foreach ($dataSource['data']['items'] as &$item) {
                $item[$fieldName . '_html'] = "<button class='button'><span>Custom Button</span></button>";
                $item[$fieldName . '_title'] = __('Please enter your custom message');
                $item[$fieldName . '_submitlabel'] = __('Send');
                $item[$fieldName . '_cancellabel'] = __('Reset');
                $item[$fieldName . '_customerid'] = $item['entity_id'];
                $item[$fieldName . '_formaction'] = $this->urlBuilder->getUrl('router/actionname/index');
            }
        }
        return $dataSource;
    }
}

Step 3: Create a button.js file in the following path.

{{magento_root}}\app\code\Vendor\Extension\view\base\web\js\grid\columns\button.js

Now add the following code

define(
    ['Magento_Ui/js/grid/columns/column',
        'jquery', 'mage/template',
        'text!Vendor_Extension/templates/grid/cells/customer/button.html',
        'Magento_Ui/js/modal/modal'], function (Column, $, mageTemplate, extensionPreviewTemplate) {
            'use strict'; return Column.extend({
                defaults: {
                    bodyTmpl: 'ui/grid/cells/html',
                    fieldClass: { 'data-grid-html-cell': true }
                },
                gethtml: function (row) {
                    return row[this.index + '_html'];
                },
                getFormaction: function (row) {
                    return row[this.index + '_formaction'];
                },
                getCustomerid: function (row) {
                    return row[this.index + '_customerid'];
                },
                getLabel: function (row) { return row[this.index + '_html'] },
                getTitle: function (row) { return row[this.index + '_title'] },
                getSubmitlabel: function (row) { return row[this.index + '_submitlabel'] },
                getCancellabel: function (row) { return row[this.index + '_cancellabel'] },
                preview: function (row) {
                    var modalHtml = mageTemplate(extensionPreviewTemplate, {
                        html: this.gethtml(row),
                        title: this.getTitle(row),
                        label: this.getLabel(row),
                        formaction: this.getFormaction(row),
                        customerid: this.getCustomerid(row),
                        submitlabel: this.getSubmitlabel(row),
                        cancellabel: this.getCancellabel(row),
                        linkText: $.mage.__('Go to Details Page')
                    });
                    var previewPopup = $('<div/>').html(modalHtml);
                    previewPopup.modal({
                        title: this.getTitle(row),
                        innerScroll: true, modalClass: '_image-box',
                        buttons: []
                    }).trigger('openModal');
                },
                getFieldHandler: function (row) { return this.preview.bind(this, row); }
            });
        });

Step 4: Create a button.html file in the path given below.

{{magento_root}}\app\code\Vendor\Extension\view\base\web\templates\grid\cells\customer\button.html

Now, add the following code

<form id="send-msg-form-<%- customerid %>" method="get" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="<%- formaction %>">
    <div class="modal-body">
        <div class="bootbox-body"> 
              <textarea class="bootbox-input bootbox-input-text form-control required-entry"
                name="message" rows="4" cols="83"></textarea> <input type="hidden" name="entity_id"
                value="<%- customerid %>"> 
        </div>
    </div>
    <div class="modal-footer"> 
            <span class="error"></span> <button type="reset" class="btn btn-default"><span><%-
                    cancellabel %></span></button> <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary"><span><%- submitlabel
                    %></span></button> <span class="clear">
           </span> 
   </div>
</form>
