kendo local and remote datasource

Question

I am integrating with the spotfire web player, when I select rows I can trap the event and send the rows to my datasource, however, when I save I'd like to call a service. Is there a way to combine local data source and remote?

Thank you.

Answer 1

What do you mean by combine local data and remote?

Variant 1: You can use dataSource.data - to set the initial records used. And define separate transport that will be used for future requests (after the initial one)

Variant 2: You can define the dataSource.transport.read as function and thus perform the binding on your own (allowing you to fetch the data either from local source or from remote service)

Variant 3: You can use dataSource.data method to set the records after the Grid is initialized.

All those configurations/settings are listed in the API reference.
