Web Component: j-DataSource

j-DataSource

The component loads data from the external source via AJAX() method and it binds the value according to the config.path.

• jComponent v19|v20

Configuration:

• path {String} required a path where the value will be set
• url {String} optional, a URL address for obtaining data
• delay {Number} optional, a delay (in milliseconds) for obtaining data (defaul: 0)

Good to know:

• config.path = '#codelist' sets a value in code lists DEF.cl.codelist
• config.path = '%codelist' sets a value in as temporary
• config.path = '?.path sets a value according to the plugin path
• config.path = 'absolute.path sets a value according to the path

Can I use dynamic URL address?

Yes, you can use <ui-component name="datasource" path="..." for dynamic obtaining of data.

<ui-component name="datasource" path="?.urlcities" config="path:#cities"></ui-component>

How can I modify data before binding?

<ui-component name="datasource" config="url:https://www.yourdomain.com/api/countries/;path:#countries">
    <script type="text/plain">
        var output = [];
        for (var item of value)
            output.push({ id: item.Id, name: item.Name });
        return output;
    </script>
</ui-component>
