LIne chart and custom JSON

[David]

I have this JSON:

[{ ​Name: "A", Data: [1, 2, 3]}, { Name: "B", Data: [3, 4, 1]}]

Is there a way to tell the Line Chart that the name field is "Name" and field is "Data"?  I have tried Series.Field and Series.CategoryField and it doesn't work.  

 If you try the dojo JS page from the demo and just change "name" to "Name" and "data" to "Data", it will break.  Setting the field value in the seriesDefault will not work.  Is the lowercase value hard coded for line charts because for others like pie charts, it works just fine.

 Thanks.

var datajson = [{ Name: "A", Data: [1, 2, 3]}, { Name: "B", Data: [3, 4, 1]}];
      

<p>var series = [];<br> for (var i=0; i<datajson.length; i++){<br>        var s = { data: datajson[i].Data, name: datajson[i].Name };<br>        series.push(s);<br>}​</p><p> </p><p>$("#chart").kendoChart({<br>                legend: {<br>                    visible: true<br>                },<br>                seriesDefaults: {<br>                    type: "line",<br>                },<br>                series: series<br> });​</p>

var series = [];
for (var i=0; i<datajson.length; i++){
        var s = { data: datajson[i].Data, name: datajson[i].Name };
        series.push(s);
}​

 

$("#chart").kendoChart({
                legend: {
                    visible: true
                },
                seriesDefaults: {
                    type: "line",
                },
                series: series
});​

 

Here is a DEMO

You are taking the JSON and pushing it into another JSON array with the lower case name which is not the point.  I'm trying to avoid all that by telling Kendo charts that the fields are "Name" and "Data".

I'm guessing that's not possible as suspected.

Hi,

This particular setup is not supported. Per-series data arrays can be passed through configuration only and it is case-sensitive.

In data-bound mode, the data item fields can be arbitrary. In this case series are bound to individual fields on the data items. See Data Binding.

The alternative that EZ suggests is fine. The resulting series will be valid, configuration wise.
