Nested Listview from the model

[Chandu]

Is there anyway we can populate the listview from the datamodel where the Data object will have nested objects example:

http://jsfiddle.net/RVCX5/ 

When the Lisview is first loaded show the Automobiles: Cars, Bikes.

When the user selects Cars: Show the items related to the Cars. Change the back button text to Cars, handle proper back and forth navigation. 

Can this be achieved with the current features of Listview?

Thanks,
Chandu

Hello Chandu,

Generally speaking I don't think that ListView is appropriate widget for this scenario. You can quite easily implement it by utilizing the Kendo templates.

To bind the ListView widget the data source should be list of object(i.e [{ field: "value"}....]). Which for the case of Cars/Bikes is not the case.

For you convenience I've build an example demonstrating how you can achieve similar effect by using ListView widget, by changing the data for the DataSource.

Please notice that in the implementation above I assume that the data structure for the DataSouce is homogeneous, i.e items for both types and manufactures are of type { name: "value"}.

Hi Nikolay,

I am also looking for same kind of solution, but https://jsfiddle.net/qJXAD/ is not running successfully.

It will be great if you can provide me running fiddle?

Thank You,
