Answer a question

Is it possible to make v-data-table vertically span all available space and pagination bar stick to the bottom like on "Desired layout" snapshot

Here is my codepen where commented html shows what I've tried already

<div id="app">
              <v-data-table 
                            :items='alarms' 
                            :headers="headers"
                            class="elevation-1"
                            fill-height>
                <template slot="items" slot-scope="props">
                  <td>{{ props.item.fridgeDisplayName }}</td>
                  <td>{{ props.item.state }}</td>
                  <td>{{ props.item.task }}</td>
                </template>
              </v-data-table>
</div>

In the official docs there's no way to do that but you could do it simply using CSS by adding the following rules :

.theme--light.v-datatable .v-datatable__actions {
    position: fixed;
    bottom: 0;
    width: 100%;
}

new Vue({
  el: '#app',
  data() {
    return {
      //pagination: {},
      headers: [{
          text: 'Name',
          value: 'fridgeDisplayName'
        },
        {
          text: 'State',
          value: 'state'
        },
        {
          text: 'Task',
          value: 'task'
        },
      ],
      alarms: [{
          fridgeDisplayName: 'Test1',
          state: 'Some state',
          task: '6.0'
        },
        {
          fridgeDisplayName: 'Test2',
          state: 'Some state',
          task: '6.0'
        },
        {
          fridgeDisplayName: 'Test3',
          state: 'Some state',
          task: '6.0'
        },
        {
          fridgeDisplayName: 'Test4',
          state: 'Some state',
          task: '6.0'
        },
        {
          fridgeDisplayName: 'Test5',
          state: 'Some state',
          task: '6.0'
        },
        {
          fridgeDisplayName: 'Test6',
          state: 'Some state',
          task: '6.0'
        },
        {
          fridgeDisplayName: 'Test7',
          state: 'Some state',
          task: '6.0'
        },
        {
          fridgeDisplayName: 'Test8',
          state: 'Some state',
          task: '6.0'
        },
        {
          fridgeDisplayName: 'Test9',
          state: 'Some state',
          task: '6.0'
        },
        {
          fridgeDisplayName: 'Test10',
          state: 'Some state',
          task: '6.0'
        },
        {
          fridgeDisplayName: 'Test11',
          state: 'Some state',
          task: '6.0'
        },
        {

          fridgeDisplayName: 'Test13',
          state: 'Some state',
          task: '6.0'

        {
          fridgeDisplayName: 'Test14',
          state: 'Some state',
          task: '6.0'

        {
          fridgeDisplayName: 'Test15',
          state: 'Some state',
          task: '6.0'
        },
        {
          fridgeDisplayName: 'Test16',
          state: 'Some state',
          task: '6.0'

    width: 100%;
