How to just get dataSource?

[Daochuen]

Hello, 

I try to get dataSource from my MVC project but got syntax error. Could someone tell me what's wrong? Thanks.

Action method on MyController:

        public JsonResult Position_Read()
        {
                var entity = new PositionViewModel
                {
                   POS_ID = "10000",
                   POS_TYPE="INTER",
                   CREATE_DT = DateTime.Now
                };

                return Json(entity);
          }

 

JavaScript in View:

 <script>

        function GetServerSourceData() {
            var ds = new kendo.data.DataSource({
                type: "odata",
                transport: {
                    read: "/MySite/MyController/Position_Read"
                },
                schema: {
                    model: {
                        fields: {
                            POS_ID: { type: "string" }, 
                            POS_TYPE: { type: "string" }
    CREATE_DT: { type: "date" },
                        }
                    }
                }
            });
            return ds;
        } 

 </script>

Hi Daochuen,

Thank you for the code snippets and details provided.

In order to achieve the desired behavior, I would recommend using our DataSourceResult method that takes the request as a parameter.

The following demo represents the implementation and the behavior needed for the case(open ViewSource and observe the implementation in the Shared_DataSourceController.cs tab):

Give a try to the approach above and let me know if further assistance is needed.

Kind Regards,
