mainGridOptions support for Angular 5 / Typscript

[Gregor]

Hi there. 

I'm trying to move my app to angular 5 and want to use the mainGridOptions.

In the past i could use there the angular translation service.

Is it still possible or could you provide a sample ?

Hi Gregor,

"mainGridOptions" was just a custom property name, used in a code sample for the Kendo UI for jQuery Grid configuration options object as a part of the Kendo UI for jQuery - AngularJS integration:

https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/AngularJS/introduction

There is no Grid configuration property of that name, and the Kendo UI for Angular Grid component does not support binding to a whole configuration object (there is no single "options" property). All configuration inputs/event handling is performed via the regular Angular 2+ syntax, and as described in our documentation:

https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui/components/grid/

https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui/components/grid/api/GridComponent/

As for translating the Grid messages, we recommend following the established Angular practices, as described in the following section of our documentation:

https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui/components/grid/globalization/

https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui/components/localization/

There are alternative approaches to provide custom messages as well:

I hope this helps.
