Create operation doesen't work

[Mattia]

Hi all,
I need help with the "Create" operation.
When I create a new task, the Scheduler doesn't send any data to the Controller method.

My C# object is:

public class Reservation : ISchedulerEvent
    {
        public virtual int IdReservation { get; set; }
        public virtual int? IdWorker { get; set; }
        public virtual int IdRoom { get; set; }
        public virtual string Title { get; set; }
        public virtual string Description { get; set; }
        public virtual DateTime Start { get; set; }
        public virtual string StartTimezone { get; set; }
        public virtual DateTime End { get; set; }
        public virtual string EndTimezone { get; set; }
        public virtual string RecurrenceRule { get; set; }
        public virtual string RecurrenceException { get; set; }
        public virtual bool IsAllDay { get; set; }
        public virtual DateTime ReservationDate { get; set; }
    }

and the Javascript is:

$("#scheduler").kendoScheduler({
        date: new Date("2014/3/25"),
        startTime: new Date("2014/3/25 07:00 AM"),
        height: 600,
        views: [
            "day",
            { type: "workWeek", selected: true },
            "week",
            "month",
            "agenda"
        ],
        timezone: "Etc/UTC",
        dataSource: {
            batch: true,
            transport: {
                read: {
                    url: "/Reservation/Read",
                    dataType: "json",
                    type: "POST"
                },
                update: {
                    url: "/Reservation/Update",
                    dataType: "json",
                    type: "POST"
                },
                create: {
                    url: "/Reservation/Create",
                    dataType: "json",
                    type: "POST"
                },
                destroy: {
                    url: "/Reservation/Delete",
                    dataType: "json",
                    type: "POST"
                },
                parameterMap: function (options, operation) {
                    if (operation !== "read" && options.models) {
                        return { models: kendo.stringify(options.models) };
                    }
                }
            },
            schema: {
                model: {
                    id: "idReservation",
                    fields: {
                        idReservation: { from: "IdReservation", type: "number", defaultValue: 1 },
                        worker: { from: "IdWorker", type: "number", defaultValue: 1 },
                        roomId: { from: "IdRoom", type: "number" },
                        title: { from: "Title", defaultValue: "No title" },
                        description: { from: "Description", defaultValue: "" },
                        start: { from: "Start", type: "date" },
                        startTimezone: { from: "StartTimezone", defaultValue: null },
                        end: { from: "End", type: "date" },
                        endTimezone: { from: "EndTimezone", defaultValue: null },
                        recurrenceRule: { from: "RecurrenceRule" , defaultValue: null },
                        recurrenceException: { from: "RecurrenceException", defaultValue: null },
                        isAllDay: { from: "IsAllDay", type: "boolean", defaultValue: false },
                        reservationDate: { from: "ReservationDate", type: "date", defaultValue: new Date() }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    });

and, this is my "Create" (MVC Controller) method is:

public virtual JsonResult Create([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request, Reservation reservation)
{
    ...
}

Please, can anyone help me to know why the properties in the "reservation" parameter ("Create" method) are all empties?

Thanks

Hi Mattia,

In current case you should set the Scheduler DataSource type to "aspnetmvc-ajax" and include the "kendo.aspnetmvc.min.js" script to the project. Please check the example below:

<script src="http://cdn.kendostatic.com/2014.1.318/js/kendo.aspnetmvc.min.js"></script>
<script>
    $("#scheduler").kendoScheduler({
        date: new Date("2014/3/25"),
        startTime: new Date("2014/3/25 07:00 AM"),
        height: 600,
        views: [
            "day",
            { type: "workWeek", selected: true },
            "week",
            "month",
            "agenda"
        ],
        timezone: "Etc/UTC",
        dataSource: {
            type:"aspnetmvc-ajax"
            batch: true,
            transport: {

Also could you please elaborate more on why are you using the web version of the Scheduler instead the MVC wrapper (as it's build to support such configuration  by default)?

Thanks for the reply.

I tried, but it doesn't work.

"why are you using the web version of the Scheduler instead the MVC wrapper"?

good question! :-)

I am new with Telerik controls.

My Web site is an ASP.NET MVC application but I don't want to use the MVC wrapper.

Please, can you show me an example (or link) with the Web version of the Scheduler and an Action method write in ASP.NET MVC?

Thank you for your help

Hi Mattia,

You can check the following example in our CodeLibrary which demonstrates another possible solution of binding Scheduler for Web to ASP.NET MVC Controller:

• Scheduler: Custom Editor

I apologize for the delay.

Thank you very much for the help.

Your example was very helpful.
