passing filter & sort params to grid from client without hitting the controller

[Manoj]

Hello,

I have an grid bounded to some data & now I want to apply some pre-defined filters & sort to the Grid. If I use the methods dataSource.filter(initialFilter) or dataSource.sort(sortParams) an immediate request is sent to the controller. 

I want to do this operations offline & once I have added both the Sorts & Filters I want to do dataSource.read() which than my server side code shall take care of the added sorts & filters

Can you let me know how can I achieve the same?

Thanks & Regards,
Manoj Kapoor

I got it addressed by pushing the sorts within dataSource._sort before calling the read method.
