Get JSON object model with dataSource.data() without "_events" node

[Guillaume]

Hello,

Before the new release, if i wanted to get the JSON object model in a data source, i did :

JSON.stringify(myGrid.dataSource.data());

But now, in the JSON string i have also a "_events" node inside it.

So, how can i get real data ?

Here the jsFiddle : http://jsfiddle.net/eyAkP/13/ 

Best Regards,
Guillaume

Hi,

 We seem to have overlooked this. Adding the following snippet will fix that:

kendo.data.ObservableArray.fn.toJSON = function() {
    return [].slice.call(this);
} 

I have updated the jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/korchev/eyAkP/14/

We will fix this for the next release.

Hi,
This is a great tip! The last update I did to our kendo broke past functionality because we are using the kendo datasource not just along with Kendo components but as a way to wrap our data. This update caused complex JSON objects (with nested objects and arrays of objects inside them) to be polluted by these additional fields. It would be nice if there was a way to fix this across the whole object because now for every sub object I get into I have to call .toJSON().

My current workaround is to have to do

JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(dataSource.data()))

Thanks for your help,
Valanto
