# AutoFill
|
|
|
|
AutoFill adds an Excel data fill like option to a DataTable to click and drag over multiple cells, filling in information over the selected cells and incrementing numbers as needed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Installation
|
|
|
|
To use AutoFill the best way to obtain the software is to use the [DataTables downloader](//datatables.net/download). You can also include the individual files from the [DataTables CDN](//cdn.datatables.net). See the [documentation](http://datatables.net/extensions/autofill/) for full details.

## NPM and Bower
|
|
|
|
If you prefer to use a package manager such as NPM or Bower, distribution repositories are available with software built from this repository under the name `datatables.net-autofill`. Styling packages for Bootstrap, Foundation and other styling libraries are also available by adding a suffix to the package name.
|
|
|
|
Please see the DataTables [NPM](//datatables.net/download/npm) and [Bower](//datatables.net/download/bower) installation pages for further information. The [DataTables installation manual](//datatables.net/manual/installation) also has details on how to use package managers with DataTables.

# Basic usage
|
|
|
|
AutoFill is initialised using the `autoFill` option in the DataTables constructor. Further options can be specified using this option as an object - see the documentation for details. For example:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
$(document).ready( function () {
|
|
$('#example').DataTable( {
|
|
autoFill: true
|
|
} );
|
|
} );
|
|
```
