Binding a grid to the local model.

[Stuart Northcott]

I'm trying to bind the ASP.NET Core Grid control to the enumerable view model on the page, e.g.

@model IEnumerable<SyncFusionTests.Web.Models.BeneficialOwnerIndexModel>

All the examples appear to be binding to a rest end point, however the documentation states:

You can bind the data to Grid control by either locally or remotely. Assign the remote service URL to e-datamanager property of Grid control to bind remote data using ej.DataManager.

But with no examples on how to bind locally.

How would I achieve this?

I've even tried defining the grid data source as:

<e-datamanager  url="Home/DataSource" offline="true"></e-datamanager>

With the associated method in the controller:

        public ActionResult DataSource(Syncfusion.JavaScript.DataManager dm)
        {
            var DataSource = GetDummyBeneficialOwnersList();

            DataResult result = new DataResult();

            result.result = DataSource.Skip(dm.Skip).Take(dm.Take).ToList();

            result.count = DataSource.Count();

            return Json(result);

        }

But this didn't work either.

Preferably I'd like to be able to attach to the model associated with the page.

Thanks in advance,

Stuart.

 Hi Stuart 

In ASP.NET Core we need to render grid using Render method. Please refer to the below code example and sample.  

 

@{Html.EJ().Grid<object>("HierarchyGrid") 

                .Datasource(ds=>ds.Json(ViewBag.data)) 

                .AllowPaging() 

                .Columns(col => 

                { 

                    col.Field("OrderID").HeaderText("OrderID").Add(); 

                    col.Field("ShipCity").HeaderText("ShipCity").Add(); 

                    col.Field("Freight").Width(120).Format("{0:c2}").Add(); 

                }).Render(); 

}
