How to get members of a Json object

[Anton Swanevelder]

Hi,

Pretty sure this is my lack of Json knowledge but how can I get a member in a Json object returned?

I am also using a DataSource here is there any other suggested way to get data that will not be bound to a control?

test: function () {

        var dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({

            transport: {

                read: {

                    url: "http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=anton",

                    dataType: "jsonp"

                }

            },

            requestStart: function (e) {

                $('#loadingMain').show();

            },

            requestEnd: function (e) {

                alert(dataSource.data().completed_in);

            },

            error: function (e) {

                alert(e.status);

            }

        });

 

        dataSource.read();

    }

If you guys can add more simple non-bound examples to your documentation please.

Thanks,
Anton

Hello Anton,

The result returned from the server is available through the response event argument in the requestEnd event as described in the documentation. From the code snippet it seems that you are trying to access a custom field returned from the server:

requestEnd: function (e) {
    alert(e.response.completed_in);
},

The dataSource data method returns an observable array.
