WebAPI integration?

[BenHayatMember]

Hi

Do you have a complete CRUD demo that integrates the widgets with ASP.Net WebAPI?

Thanks!

Hi,

All the samples that we have built with ASP .NET can be found here: http://www.jqwidgets.com/jquery-widgets-documentation in the ASP .NET Integration section. We will extend the list of samples in our future versions.

Hi Peter;

Thanks for reply. But I was asking specifically about using your widgets with “WebAPI” and not MVC (which most samples seems to be).
Thanks!

Hi,

It seems that we still do not have samples specifically for “WebAPI”. We will add some in the future.

Peter, can you please give an approximate time when you would have that sample?

Secondly, could you please make a complete CRUD operations using an input widget for data entry and using your grid for adding and editing? The client wants to see a working real sample and how much code is involved to create a CRUD page.

Their application will need to create a large maintenance system that must deal with lots of tables. Your sample will give them an idea how much man power power is needed.

Also, we can then compare to see if they should use MVC or WebAPI based on each implementation.

Thank you in advance!

Hi,

We already samples with CRUD and Inputs, but unfortunately still not for “WebAPI”. At present, the requested samples are not in our Roadmap, but I already created a work item about adding such in the future. We will consider them for Q4 2013. In general, you can learn how to implement the client-side editing from the samples available on our website. When a cell is edited, the Grid raises events such as “cellendedit” and “cellvaluechanged” and also calls a callback function called “updaterow”(if initialized in the Grid’s source object) which are appropriate for synchronization with your server throug the jQuery’s Ajax function.

Thanks Peter for your clear explanation. I actually thought of the same approach as you described it.

Q4 should be good for you as well, since by then MS will RTM WebAPI 2.0 which it went to beta a few days ago.

Thanks for your time!
