How can I know if a column / cell / header is a display column / cell / header?

[jonahallibone]

I have a few tables with columns that are buttons, checkboxes, etc. I have a few functions where I export all the "data" from the table, but I'd like to be able to filter out columns / headers which are explicitly created via columnHelper.display(..)

I don't see anything obvious on the cell / header that would make me think there is some dynamic way of filtering these items. Should I make a PR for this feature, or is this something outside the purview of the library?

Hello,

if you use enableHiding: false in your column definition, you can do this :

table
.getAllColumns()
.filter((column) => typeof column.accessorFn !== "undefined" && column.getCanHide())
.map((column) => console.log(column))

or you can define meta.
