assignments Object

The configuration of the assignments of the gantt resources. An assignment is a one-to-one mapping between a gantt task and a gantt resource containing the number of units for which a resource is assigned to a task.

assignments.dataSource Object|Array|kendo.data.DataSource

The data source which contains assignment data items. Can be a JavaScript object which represents a valid data source configuration, a JavaScript array or an existing kendo.data.DataSource instance.

If the dataSource option is set to a JavaScript object or array the widget will initialize a new kendo.data.DataSource instance using that value as data source configuration.

If the dataSource option is an existing kendo.data.DataSource instance the widget will use that instance and will not initialize a new one.

Example - set the assignments data source

<div id="gantt"></div>
<script>
$("#gantt").kendoGantt({
  dataSource: [
    {
      id: 0,
      orderId: 0,
      parentId: null,
      title: "Task1",
