Scheduler grouping and resources attributes declaratively

[Alex]

Trying to see implement grouping and resources in scheduler widget, however am using declarative syntax for the widget construction and binding it to a view model.

This is the widget :

        <div data-role="scheduler"
             data-views="['day','week','month','agenda']"
             data-height="500"
             data-bind="source: plannerDS"
             ></div>

But to achieve the vertical grouping as in the demo:
http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/scheduler/resources-grouping-vertical

is this the syntax  and also has anyone advice for the syntax for implementing the datasource for each resource field? :          

             data-group-resources="Rooms"
             data-group-orientation="vertical"
             data-resources-field="roomID"
             data-resources-name="Rooms"
.....

Hi Alex,

Please check the example below about how to enable vertical grouping when the scheduler is initialized using MVVM:

• Scheduler MVVM: vertical grouping

I'm having trouble getting the correct syntax to bind the dataSource of  the data-resources  to a datasource defined  in  the viewmodel.   I've tried about 100 permutations but without success,  is it possible ? 

this is not correct of course:

             data-resources="[{
                             field: 'ownerId',
                             title: 'Owner',
                             name: 'Owner',
                             dataSource: myresourceDataSource
}]"

Hi Alex,

It's not possible to use directly the "source" binding for the scheduler resources, however you can reference the needed property from the view model as follows (the ViewModel should be accessible in current scope):

data-resources="[{
     field: 'ownerId',
     title: 'Owner',
     name: 'Owner',
     dataSource: viewModel.resourceDS}]"

Also you can check the updated example here.
