Close datatable cell editor programmatically

[turnerhayes]

I looked around the docs for this, but didn't see it, so apologies if it's already available.

I would like to be able to make a cell stop being edited apart from whatever logic the datatable uses to stop a cell from being edited. My particular use case is that I have some shortcut keys to set certain dates on a date input element, but despite the shortcuts working (and changing the component props), the cell remains editable after pressing the shortcuts.

I've added closeEditingCell method, you can get the ref of the datatable instance and call closeEditingCell. Similar to how exportCSV works.

Hey @cagataycivici,
I don't see this method in the type file .d.ts

export class DataTable extends React.Component<DataTableProps,any> {
public exportCSV():void;
public filter(value:T, field:string, mode:string):void;
}
