A quick guide to getting started with learning and improving your skills using Blazor technology.
To bind remote data to grid component, assign service data as an instance of DataManager to the
dataSource property.
To interact with remote data source, provide the endpoint url.
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { DataManager, ODataAdaptor } from '@syncfusion/ej2-data';
@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
template: `<ejs-grid [dataSource]='data'>
<e-columns>
<e-column field='OrderID' headerText='Order ID' textAlign='Right' width=120></e-column>
<e-column field='CustomerID' headerText='Customer ID' width=150></e-column>
<e-column field='ShipCity' headerText='Ship City' width=150></e-column>
<e-column field='ShipName' headerText='Ship Name' width=150></e-column>
</e-columns>
</ejs-grid>`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
public data: DataManager;
ngOnInit(): void {
this.data = new DataManager({
url: 'https://js.syncfusion.com/demos/ejServices/Wcf/Northwind.svc/Orders?$top=7',
adaptor: new ODataAdaptor()
});
}
}import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { GridModule, PageService, SortService, FilterService } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-grids';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
/**
* Module
*/
@NgModule({
imports: [
BrowserModule,
GridModule
],
declarations: [AppComponent],
bootstrap: [AppComponent],
providers: [PageService, SortService, FilterService]
})
export class AppModule { }import { platformBrowserDynamic } from '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic';
import { enableProdMode } from '@angular/core';
import { AppModule } from './app.module';
enableProdMode();
platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule);By default, DataManager uses ODataAdaptor for remote data-binding.
OData is a standardized protocol for creating and consuming data.
You can retrieve data from OData service using DataManager. You can refer to the following code example of remote data binding using OData service.
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { DataManager, ODataAdaptor } from '@syncfusion/ej2-data';
@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
template: `<ejs-grid [dataSource]='data'>
<e-columns>
<e-column field='OrderID' headerText='Order ID' textAlign='Right' width=120></e-column>
<e-column field='CustomerID' headerText='Customer ID' width=150></e-column>
<e-column field='ShipCity' headerText='Ship City' width=150></e-column>
<e-column field='ShipName' headerText='Ship Name' width=150></e-column>
</e-columns>
</ejs-grid>`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
public data: DataManager;
ngOnInit(): void {
this.data = new DataManager({
url: 'https://js.syncfusion.com/demos/ejServices/Wcf/Northwind.svc/Orders?$top=7',
adaptor: new ODataAdaptor(),
crossDomain: true
});
}
}import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { GridModule, PageService, SortService, FilterService } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-grids';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
/**

@NgModule({
imports: [
BrowserModule,
GridModule
],
declarations: [AppComponent],
bootstrap: [AppComponent],
providers: [PageService, SortService, FilterService]
})
export class AppModule { }import { platformBrowserDynamic } from '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic';
import { enableProdMode } from '@angular/core';
import { AppModule } from './app.module';
enableProdMode();
platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule);The ODataV4 is an improved version of OData protocols, and the DataManager can also retrieve and consume OData v4 services.
For more details on OData v4 services, refer to the
odata documentation.
To bind OData v4 service, use the ODataV4Adaptor.
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { DataManager, ODataV4Adaptor } from '@syncfusion/ej2-data';
@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
template: `<ejs-grid [dataSource]='data'>
<e-columns>
<e-column field='OrderID' headerText='Order ID' textAlign='Right' width=120></e-column>
<e-column field='CustomerID' headerText='Customer ID' width=150></e-column>
<e-column field='ShipCity' headerText='Ship City' width=150></e-column>
<e-column field='ShipName' headerText='Ship Name' width=150></e-column>
</e-columns>
</ejs-grid>`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
public data: DataManager;
ngOnInit(): void {
this.data = new DataManager({
url: 'https://services.odata.org/V4/Northwind/Northwind.svc/Orders/?$top=7',
adaptor: new ODataV4Adaptor()
});
}
}import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { GridModule, PageService, SortService, FilterService } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-grids';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
/**

@NgModule({
imports: [
BrowserModule,
GridModule
],
declarations: [AppComponent],
bootstrap: [AppComponent],
providers: [PageService, SortService, FilterService]
})
export class AppModule { }import { platformBrowserDynamic } from '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic';
import { enableProdMode } from '@angular/core';
import { AppModule } from './app.module';
enableProdMode();
platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule);You can use WebApiAdaptor to bind grid with Web API created using OData endpoint.
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { DataManager, WebApiAdaptor } from '@syncfusion/ej2-data';
@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
template: `<ejs-grid [dataSource]='data'>
<e-columns>
<e-column field='OrderID' headerText='Order ID' textAlign='Right' width=120></e-column>
<e-column field='CustomerID' headerText='Customer ID' width=150></e-column>
<e-column field='ShipCity' headerText='Ship City' width=150></e-column>
<e-column field='ShipName' headerText='Ship Name' width=150></e-column>
</e-columns>
</ejs-grid>`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
public data: DataManager;
ngOnInit(): void {
this.data = new DataManager({
url: 'api/OrderApi',
adaptor: new WebApiAdaptor()
});
}
}The response object should contain properties Items and Count whose values are a collection of entities and the total count of the entities respectively.
The sample response object should look like below.
{
Items: [{..}, {..}, {..}, ...],
Count: 830
}You may need to perform all Grid Actions in client-side except the CRUD operations, that should be interacted with server-side to persist data. It can be achieved in Grid by using RemoteSaveAdaptor.
Datasource must be set to json property and set RemoteSaveAdaptor to the adaptor property. CRUD operations can be mapped to server-side using updateUrl, insertUrl, removeUrl, batchUrl, crudUrl properties.
You can use the following code example to use RemoteSaveAdaptor in Grid.
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { DataManager, RemoteSaveAdaptor } from '@syncfusion/ej2-data';
import { EditSettingsModel, ToolbarItems } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-grids';
@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
template: `<ejs-grid [dataSource]='dataSource' [editSettings]='editSettings' [toolbar]='toolbar'>
<e-columns>
<e-column field='OrderID' headerText='Order ID' textAlign='Right' width=120></e-column>
<e-column field='CustomerID' headerText='Customer ID' width=150></e-column>
<e-column field='ShipCity' headerText='Ship City' width=150></e-column>
<e-column field='ShipName' headerText='Ship Name' width=150></e-column>
</e-columns>
</ejs-grid>`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
public data: DataManager;
public value: any;
public editSettings: EditSettingsModel;
public toolbar: ToolbarItems[];
ngOnInit(): void {
this.value = (window as any).griddata;
this.data = new DataManager({
json: JSON.parse(this.value),
adaptor: new RemoteSaveAdaptor(),
insertUrl: '/Home/Insert',
updateUrl: '/Home/Update',
removeUrl: '/Home/Delete'
});
this.editSettings = { allowEditing: true, allowAdding: true, allowDeleting: true };
this.toolbar = ['Add', 'Edit', 'Delete', 'Update', 'Cancel'];
}
}The following code example describes how to fetch the data from ViewBag in angular.
<script type="text/javascript">
window.griddata = '@Html.Raw(Json.Encode(ViewBag.dataSource))';
</script>The following code example describes the CRUD operations handled at server-side.
public ActionResult Index()
{
ViewBag.dataSource = OrdersDetails.GetAllRecords().ToArray();
return View();
}
public ActionResult Update(OrdersDetails value)
{
...
return Json(value);
}
public ActionResult Insert(OrdersDetails value)
{
...
return Json(value);
}
public ActionResult Delete(int key)
{
...
return Json(data);
}You can create your own adaptor by extending the built-in adaptors. For the sake of demonstrating custom adaptor approach, we are going to see how to add a serial number for the records by overriding the built-in response processing using the processResponse method of the ODataAdaptor.
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { DataManager, ODataAdaptor } from '@syncfusion/ej2-data';
class SerialNoAdaptor extends ODataAdaptor {
processResponse() {
let i = 0;
const Sno = 'Sno';
// calling base class processResponse function
const original = super.processResponse.apply(this, arguments);
// Adding serial number
original.result.forEach((item) => item[Sno] = ++i);
return { result: original.result, count: original.count };
}
}
@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
template: `<ejs-grid [dataSource]='data'>
<e-columns>
<e-column field='Sno' headerText='SNO' textAlign='Right' width=150></e-column>
<e-column field='CustomerID' headerText='Customer ID' width=150></e-column>
<e-column field='ShipCity' headerText='Ship City' width=150></e-column>
<e-column field='ShipName' headerText='Ship Name' width=150></e-column>
</e-columns>
</ejs-grid>`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
public data: DataManager;
ngOnInit(): void {
this.data = new DataManager({
url: 'https://js.syncfusion.com/demos/ejServices/Wcf/Northwind.svc/Orders?$top=7',
adaptor: new SerialNoAdaptor()
});
}
}import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';

import { GridModule, PageService, SortService, FilterService } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-grids';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';

import { enableProdMode } from '@angular/core';
import { AppModule } from './app.module';
enableProdMode();
platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule);On remote data binding, all grid actions such as paging, sorting, editing, grouping, filtering, etc, will be processed on server-side. To avoid post back for every action, set the grid to load all data on initialization and make the actions process in client-side. To enable this behavior, use the offline property of DataManager.
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { DataManager, ODataAdaptor } from '@syncfusion/ej2-data';
@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
template: `<ejs-grid [dataSource]='data' [allowPaging]='true' [allowGrouping]='true' [allowSorting]='true' [pageSettings]='pageOptions'>

<e-column field='ShipName' headerText='Ship Name' width=150></e-column>
</e-columns>
</ejs-grid>`
