DevExtreme Angular - Access the DataSource
Regardless of the data source you use, the Lookup always wraps it in a DataSource. Call the getDataSource() method to get the instance of the DataSource.
TypeScript
- import { DxLookupModule, DxLookupComponent } from "devextreme-angular";
- // ...
- export class AppComponent {
- @ViewChild(DxLookupComponent, { static: false }) lookup: DxLookupComponent;
- // Prior to Angular 8
- // @ViewChild(DxLookupComponent) lookup: DxLookupComponent;
- lookupDataSource = this.lookup.instance.getDataSource();
- }
- @NgModule({
- imports: [
- // ...
- DxLookupModule
- ],
- // ...
- })
Now, you can call any method the DataSource exposes. For example, you can reload data using the load() method.
JavaScript
- lookupDataSource.load();
