Set scheduler resources dataSource after initialization

[100%]

I want to initialize the scheduler in the beginning of my app (in the jquery ready handler) and when I get a list of something comparable to "owners" in

http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/web/scheduler/index.html

I want to set the resources.dataSource member (the one with Alex, Bob and Charlie, but in my case, there are some other owners, data coming from an ajax response).

I tried to create an array of items all having the members text, value and color, and then

var scheduler = $("#wScheduler").data("kendoScheduler");
scheduler.resources[0].dataSource = theArray;
scheduler.dataSource.sync();

but that did not change the possible "owners" of scheduler tasks.

I have also tried

var ds = new kendo.data.SchedulerDataSource({data:items});
scheduler.resources[0].dataSource = ds;

and

var ds = new kendo.data.DataSource({data:items});
scheduler.resources[0].dataSource = ds;

with no luck.

Hello,

Basically, you will need to add the data items using the data method of the data source and then just to re-render the widget. Here is a simple jsBin demo, which shows how to accomplish these tasks.

Hi,

I want to initialize the scheduler in the beginning like 

http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/scheduler/timeline

it will also have two level of grouping but that will be dynamically fetched at runtime from ajex call.

also i have checked scheduler.resources[0].dataSource.add() method to add groupiong item,

but it adds only first group not the next group.

also second group data will be dependent on first group value like for Meeting Room 101 will have value A and B in second group and for Meeting Room 201 will have C and D .

how we can do this.

Thanks

Siddhartha

Hello Siddhartha,

In general, every group level uses a separate resource datasource. That being said, you will need to use resources[1] (second resource) to add items to the second group level.

Here is a demo that demonstrates how to dynamically update the resources while the widget is grouped:
