Description
How can I use AngularJS directives to bind the Kendo UI Grid for jQuery to Telerik Backend Services?
Solution
The following example demonstrates how to bind the Grid to the Kinvey Backend Services in an AngularJS application.
The example loads Kendo UI 2023.3.1010 version.
<script src="https://kendo.cdn.telerik.com/2023.3.1010/js/angular.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://kendo.cdn.telerik.com/2023.3.1010/js/kendo.all.min.js"></script>
<div id="example" ng-app="KendoDemos">
<div ng-controller="MyCtrl" data-ng-init="init()">
<!-- Use grid directive with scope options -->
<kendo-grid options="gridOptions"></kendo-grid>
</div>
</div>
<!-- Kinvey JS SDK (HTML, PhoneGap, etc.) -->
<script src="https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/content/shared/js/kinvey-html5-sdk.min.js"></script>
<!-- Kinvey Kendo UI Data Source -->
<script src="https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/content/shared/js/kendo.data.kinvey.min.js"></script>
<script>
// configure API key
Kinvey.init({
appKey: 'kid_SJyRpx96G',
appSecret: 'a88466f87e434ca4a1a0194e33d3168d'
});
angular.module("KendoDemos", ["kendo.directives"])
.controller('MyCtrl', ["$scope", MyCtrl]);
function MyCtrl($scope) {
$scope.init = function() {
if (!Kinvey.User.getActiveUser()) {
var that = this;
Kinvey.User.signup()
.then(function() {
that.dataSource.read();
})
.catch(function(error) {
alert(error.message);
});
} else {
this.dataSource.read();
}
};
// declare dataSource bound to backend
$scope.dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
type: "kinvey",
transport: {
typeName: "products"
},
schema: {
model: {
id: "_id",
fields: {
UnitPrice: {
type: "number"
},
UnitsInStock: {
type: "number"
},
Discontinued: {
type: "boolean"
}
}
}
},
pageSize: 20,
serverSorting: true,
serverPaging: true,
error: function(err) {
alert(JSON.stringify(err));
}
});
$scope.gridOptions = {
autoBind: false,
dataSource: $scope.dataSource,
height: 430,
sortable: true,
pageable: true,
columns: [{
field: "ProductName",
title: "Product Name"
}, {
field: "UnitPrice",
title: "Unit Price",
width: 220
}, {
field: "UnitsInStock",
title: "Units In Stock",
width: 220
}, {
field: "Discontinued",
title: "Discontinued",
width: 220
}]
};
}
