jQuery

JavaScript

var pivotGridDataSource = new DevExpress.data.PivotGridDataSource({
    // PivotGridDataSource is configured here
});

pivotGridDataSource.collapseAll("Region");

Angular

TypeScript

import PivotGridDataSource from "devextreme/ui/pivot_grid/data_source";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
    pivotGridDataSource: PivotGridDataSource;
    constructor() {
        this.pivotGridDataSource = new PivotGridDataSource({
            // PivotGridDataSource is configured here
        });

}

collapseHeaderItem(area, path)

Collapses a specific header item.

Parameters:

area:

The area that contains the header item to collapse.

path:

Array<String | Number | Date>

A path to the header item.

jQuery

JavaScript

var pivotGridDataSource = new DevExpress.data.PivotGridDataSource({
    // PivotGridDataSource is configured here
});

// Collapses the second quarter of 2015 in the column area
pivotGridDataSource.collapseHeaderItem("column", [2015, 2]);

Angular

TypeScript

import PivotGridDataSource from "devextreme/ui/pivot_grid/data_source";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
    pivotGridDataSource: PivotGridDataSource;
    constructor() {
        this.pivotGridDataSource = new PivotGridDataSource({

createDrillDownDataSource(options)

Provides access to the facts that were used to calculate a specific summary value.

Parameters:

options:

Configuration object.

Object structure:

Name	Type	Description
columnPath	Array<String \| Number \| Date>	A path to the cell with the summary value by columns.
rowPath	Array<String \| Number \| Date>	A path to the cell with the summary value by rows.

NOTE

Data in the drill-down data source is paginated by default. Only the items on the first page are loaded when you call the load() method. To get all the items, turn the pagination off:

jQuery

JavaScript

var pivotGridDataSource = new DevExpress.data.PivotGridDataSource({
    // PivotGridDataSource is configured here
});

var drillDownDataSource = pivotGridDataSource.createDrillDownDataSource({
    // Options are passed here
});

drillDownDataSource.paginate(false);

drillDownDataSource.load()
    .done(function (data) {
        // Process "data" here
    })
    .fail(function (error) {
        // Handle the "error" here
    });

Angular

TypeScript

import PivotGridDataSource from "devextreme/ui/pivot_grid/data_source";
import DataSource from "devextreme/data/data_source";
// ...
export class AppComponent {

    drillDownDataSource: DataSource;
    constructor() {
        this.pivotGridDataSource = new PivotGridDataSource({
            // PivotGridDataSource is configured here
        });

        this.drillDownDataSource = this.pivotGridDataSource.createDrillDownDataSource({

        });

        this.drillDownDataSource.paginate(false);

        this.drillDownDataSource.load()
            .then(
                (data) => { /* Process "data" here */ },
                (error) => { /* Handle the "error" here */ }
            )

            // ...
        ],
        // ...
    ],
    grandTotalRowIndex: 0,
    grandTotalColumnIndex: 0

}

NOTE

"Measure" refers to a pivot grid field in the data area.

The object mentioned above contains three arrays: rows, columns, and values. Objects in the rows and columns arrays describe header items in the row and column areas and contain the following fields:

index - the index of the row/column that contains the header item; used to find a summary value in the values array;
value - the field value from the data source that corresponds to the header item;
text - the header item's caption;
children - an optional array that contains lower-level header items.

The values array contains summary values. Each of them has three indexes. To get a summary value, use the following pattern:

JavaScript

var value = values[/* row index */][/* column index */][/* measure index */];

You can pass grandTotalRowIndex and grandTotalColumnIndex as row index and column index to get grand total values.

NOTE

If you use the XmlaStore and your data area is empty, this method returns the default measure values. They are hidden from the UI until you place the default measure in the data area using the field(id, options) method. The default measure is specified on the OLAP server.

JavaScript

pivotGridDataSource.field(/* measure name */, { area: "data" });

isLoading()

Checks whether the PivotGridDataSource is loading data.

Return Value:

Boolean

true if data is being loaded; otherwise false.

load()

Starts loading data.

Return Value:

Promise<any> (jQuery or native)

A Promise that is resolved after data is loaded. It is a native Promise or a jQuery.Promise when you use jQuery.

jQuery

JavaScript

var pivotGridDataSource = new DevExpress.data.PivotGridDataSource({
    // PivotGridDataSource is configured here
});

pivotGridDataSource.load()
    .done(function (data) {
        // Process "data" here
    })
    .fail(function (error) {
        // Handle the "error" here
    });

Angular

TypeScript

            // PivotGridDataSource is configured here
        });
        this.pivotGridDataSource.load()
            .then(
                (data) => { /* Process "data" here */ },
                (error) => { /* Handle the "error" here */ }
            )
