How would I refresh my listview data on a timed schedule?

[Jay]

I'm creating a dashboard app and I have a listview to retrieve some data. I want to re-fetch the data ever 10 minutes. Do I use javascript setInterval()  or do you have some built in function on your datasource to do this? I assume Telerik would do this on most of your gauges and charts components.

Hello Jay,

I already responded to the suport thread and am posting the answer here as well:

Indeed setInterval() would be the way to implement such functionality. For example: 

$(function () {
          $("#listView").kendoListView({
            dataSource: dataSource,
            template: kendo.template($("#template").html())
          });
          
          setInterval(function (){ readData();}, 300000);
        });

        function readData() {
          var lv = $("#listView").getKendoListView()
          lv.dataSource.read();
        }

Here is a runnable dojo that reads the ListView's dataSource every 5min.
