Scheduler resources datasource

[tomas]

Hi, i'm a novice with kendo and grails, sorry if i make a dumb question

I want to use a remote datasource for the resources in the scheduler, and i have this:

        resources: [
            {
                field: "roomId",
                name: "Rooms",
                title: "Room",
                dataSource: {
                    type: "json",
                    transport:
                    {
                        read: {
                            url: "${createLink(controller:'panelControl', action:'getResources')}",
                            dataType: "json",
                            type: "GET"
                        }
                    }

And, in my controller i have this:

def getResources = {

   def map = [text:"Gromit", value:1, color:"#f58a8a"]

   return [myStringArray:map] as JSON

 }


When i run mi app, i have a 404 error: 
The requested resource (/ReservaYJuga/WEB-INF/grails-app/views/panelControl/getResources.jsp) is not available.

If i change my controller to render the view, doing something like that:

def getResources = {
def map = [text:"Gromit", value:1, color:"#f58a8a"]
render map as JSON
}

I get this: 
{"text":"Gromit","value":1,"color":"#f58a8a"}


Can somebody help me?

Thank you!

Hi Tomas,

I checked the pointed Framework documentation and it seems that the correct way of returning Json to the client side is using the "render" keyword (the second example that you provide), however you should make sure that the response is wrapped as array in order to be understand by the scheduler resource dataSource. Please check the example response below:

[{"text":"Gromit","value":1,"color":"#f58a8a"}]

Vladimir, thanks for the reply

Unfortunately, that doesnt work for me. In fact, it doesn't compile.

Any suggestions?

Hi Tomas,

Apologise if I was not clear enough - the provided example was intended only to show you how the response from the server should look like on the client side and it's not intended to be applied directly to your server code. I would suggest to check the "Grails" documentation about how to achieve that behavior.

Vladimir,

Thank you for your replay and sorry for my delay.

Finally i can wrapp my response as an array, but when i render the list, i get this:

[{"text":"Gromit","value":1,"color":"#f58a8a"}]

Is the same that you said, but the scheduler doesnt work! Any ideas?

Thank you again for your help

Hi Tomas,

Could you please make sure that the service is not returning "404 Error" (when you try to access it as you mention in the fist post) as well as if there is any JavaScript errors on the page that can prevents the scheduler from working?

Also please provide runable project where the issue is reproduced - this would help us pinpoint the exact reason for this behavior.

 public JsonResult GetAllEvents()
        {
            IList<Event> events = _eventService.GetAllEvents();
            return Json(events, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
        }
above call retuns
[{"EventId":1,"Title":"Chitta Birth Day","StartDate":"\/Date(1403145000000)\/","EndDate":"\/Date(1403148600000)\/","EventColor":"#CFCFCF"}]

Hi Chittaranjan,

As this thread is out of the original topic, may I kindly ask you to open a new support thread for the Scheduler? In this way it is much easier to follow and concentrate on the particular issue which usually leads to its faster resolving.
