Refresh data

[CXXXVParticipant]

Using json. What is the method to fetch/refresh appopintments. Equivalent to grid.updatebounddata.

Hello CXXXV,

There is not a particular method for refreshing the appointments ad the updatebounddata for the grid.
You can achieve this by updating the data adapter and passing it again to the scheduler.
Please, take a look at this Example.

Makes it difficult when storing appointments in a database. So how does one go about showing newly created appointments that have been saved to a server? All other scheduler widgets offer this ability. Seem a feature you guys need to add. Just like your other data aware widgets.

[MartinParticipant]

Hello CXXXV,

You can still use:

adapter = new $.jqx.dataAdapter(source);
 $("#scheduler").jqxScheduler('source', adapter);

for refreshing the scheduler’s appointments when you need, as you would have used use “updatebounddata” in the grid.

Tried that. New items do not show up in the scheduler. How does thia trigger a new fetch in the source. Without that no new items will show.

[MartinParticipant]

Hello CXXXV,

Yes, you will first need to update the source yourself and then pass it to the dataAdapter, as shown above.

Martin:

I can make the source get new data. However, I am not able to make the SCHEDULER display refresh. I followed example.

[MartinParticipant]

Hello CXXV,

Can you send us your code, so I can take a look?
Thank you!

		GetMenuData();
		source.localdata = menuData;
		NewAdapter = new $.jqx.dataAdapter(source);
		$("#scheduler").jqxScheduler('source', NewAdapter);

GetMenuData is an ajax call to geet updated data.

[MartinParticipant]

Hello CXXXV,

Most probably you update the source before the menuData is retrieved by the ajax call, asynchronously.

Try moving the following:

source.localdata = menuData;
 NewAdapter = new $.jqx.dataAdapter(source);
 $("#scheduler").jqxScheduler('source', NewAdapter);

inside the success callback of the call.
