Hello i'm using Ajax Methode to fill a DataTable i have tested my Web API and it's working correctly but i keep getting this message No data available in table
jQuery Code :
// DataTables
var table = $("#table").DataTable({
ajax: {
url: "/api/picklist/getpicklist",
dataSrc:"",
},
columns: [
{
data:"numero_picklist"
},
{
data:"PFIN"
}
]
});
HTML Table :
<table id="table" class="table table-bordered table-hover table-responsive table-striped">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Numéro picklist</th>
</tr>
</thead>
</table>
web API :
// GET /api/picklist
public IEnumerable<PicklistDto> GetPicklist()
{
return _context.Dimension_picklist.ToList().Select(Mapper.Map<Dimension_picklist,PicklistDto>);
}
Web API Test :
enter image description here
Here are some things you can do to help you debug. My guess is that your data is not where you thing it is on your json objejct.
var table = $("#table").DataTable({
ajax: {
url: "/api/picklist/getpicklist",
dataSrc:"",
// add this
dataFilter: function(res) {
// to see what actual data is being sent from the server.
// you can check to make sure that your data is where you think it is (some servers wrap data in other object, for example,
// Microsoft web services puts the data in an object call d.
console.log(res);
return res;
},
error: function(err, status){
// add this section to record any errors
console.log(err);
}
},
columns: [
{
data:"numero_picklist"
},
{
data:"PFIN"
}
]
});
First you need learn sractch of data table & its parameter.
On the ajax its send the some parameter to target method to fetch record and filterning. i've used DTParameters which contail the param.
Here is ActionMethod
[System.Web.Http.HttpPost]
public IHttpActionResult loadData(DTParameters param)
{
//Us IQuerable for server side processings -filterning and pagination
//i m just doing testing
var ListData = getList();
//take and skip record according to pagination
var takeData = ListData.Skip(param.Start).Take(param.Length).ToList();
// IF searching value is not null
if (param.Search.Value != null && param.Search.Value != "")
{
var sendData = takeData.Where(p => p.numero_picklist != null && p.numero_picklist.ToLower().Contains(param.Search.Value.ToLower())
|| p.PFIN != null && p.PFIN.ToLower().Contains(param.Search.Value.ToLower())).ToList();
DTResult<PicklistDto> result = new DTResult<PicklistDto>
{
draw = param.Draw,
data = sendData.ToList(),
recordsFiltered = ListData.Count(), // total number of record
recordsTotal = ListData.Count(), // total number of record
};
return Json(result);
}
else
{
var sendData = takeData;
DTResult<PicklistDto> result = new DTResult<PicklistDto>
{
draw = param.Draw,
data = sendData.ToList(),
recordsFiltered = ListData.Count(), // total number of record
recordsTotal = ListData.Count(), // total number of record
};
return Json(result);
}
}
