Angular SelectBox - ArrayStore

Extend a JavaScript array's functionality by placing it into an ArrayStore. It provides an interface for loading and editing data, and allows you to handle data-related events.

jQuery
JavaScript
$(function() {
    $("#selectBoxContainer").dxSelectBox({
        dataSource: new DevExpress.data.ArrayStore({
            data: products,
            onLoaded: function() {
                // Event handling commands go here
            }
        }),
        valueExpr: 'price',
        displayExpr: 'name'
    });
});
Angular
TypeScript
HTML
import ArrayStore from "devextreme/data/array_store";
import { DxSelectBoxModule } from "devextreme-angular";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
    products = [ /* ... */ ];
    productsStore = new ArrayStore({
        data: this.products,
        onLoaded: function () {
            // Event handling commands go here
        }
    });
}
@NgModule({
     imports: [
         // ...
         DxSelectBoxModule
     ],
     // ...
 })
<dx-select-box
    [dataSource]="productsStore"
    valueExpr="price"
    displayExpr="name">
</dx-select-box>

Data kept in the ArrayStore can be processed in a DataSource. For example, the DataSource can sort data.

jQuery
JavaScript
const products = [
    { name: "HD Video Player", price: 100 },
    { name: "SuperHD Video Player", price: 420 },
    { name: "SuperPlasma 50", price: 1500 },
    { name: "SuperLED 50", price: 200 }
];

$(function() {
    $("#selectBoxContainer").dxSelectBox({
        dataSource: new DevExpress.data.DataSource({
            store: products,
            sort: { getter: "name", asc: true }
        }),
        valueExpr: 'price',
        displayExpr: 'name'
    });
});
Angular
TypeScript
HTML
import DataSource from "devextreme/data/data_source";
import { DxSelectBoxModule } from "devextreme-angular";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
    products = [
        { name: "HD Video Player", price: 100 },
        { name: "SuperHD Video Player", price: 420 },
        { name: "SuperPlasma 50", price: 1500 },
        { name: "SuperLED 50", price: 200 }
    ];
    productsDataSource = new DataSource({
        store: this.products,
        sort: { getter: "name", asc: true }
    });
}
@NgModule({
     imports: [
         // ...
         DxSelectBoxModule
     ],
     // ...
 })
<dx-select-box
    [dataSource]="productsDataSource"
    valueExpr="price"
    displayExpr="name">
</dx-select-box>
NOTE
Even if you have passed a JavaScript array to the dataSource property, the SelectBox automatically places it into an ArrayStore wrapped into the DataSource you can get with the getDataSource() method.
