JavaScript/jQuery ActionSheet Options

• Configure a Widget: Angular | Vue | React | jQuery | AngularJS | Knockout | ASP.NET MVC 5 | ASP.NET Core

If you use DevExtreme ASP.NET MVC Controls, refer to the Bind Controls to Data article.

The ActionSheet works with collections of string values or objects.

Depending on your data source, bind the ActionSheet to data as follows. If the data source provides objects, also specify the itemTemplate. You can skip this part if the objects contain fields described in the Default Item Template section.

• Data Array
  Assign the array to the dataSource option.

• Read-Only Data in JSON Format
  Set the dataSource option to the URL of a JSON file or service that returns JSON data.

• OData
  Implement an ODataStore.

• Web API, PHP, MongoDB
  Use one of the following extensions to enable the server to process data according to the protocol DevExtreme widgets use:

  • DevExtreme.AspNet.Data
  • DevExtreme-PHP-Data
  • devextreme-query-mongodb

  Then, use the createStore method to configure access to the server on the client as shown below. This method is part of DevExtreme.AspNet.Data.

  jQuery

  JavaScript

  $(function() {
      let serviceUrl = "https://url/to/my/service";
      $("#actionSheetContainer").dxActionSheet({
          // ...
          dataSource: DevExpress.data.AspNet.createStore({
              key: "ID",
              loadUrl: serviceUrl + "/GetAction",
              insertUrl: serviceUrl + "/InsertAction",
              updateUrl: serviceUrl + "/UpdateAction",
              deleteUrl: serviceUrl + "/DeleteAction"
          })
      })
  });

  </template>
  
  <script>
  import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.common.css';

          DxActionSheet
      },
      data() {

          return {
              store
          }
      }
  }
  </script>

  React

  App.js

  import React from 'react';
  import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.common.css';
  import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css';
  
  import CustomStore from 'devextreme/data/custom_store';
  import { createStore } from 'devextreme-aspnet-data-nojquery';
  import ActionSheet from 'devextreme-react/action-sheet';
  
  const serviceUrl = "https://url/to/my/service";
  const store = createStore({
      key: "ID",
      loadUrl: serviceUrl + "/GetAction",
      insertUrl: serviceUrl + "/InsertAction",
      updateUrl: serviceUrl + "/UpdateAction",
      deleteUrl: serviceUrl + "/DeleteAction"
  });
  
  class App extends React.Component {
      render() {
          return (
              <ActionSheet ...
                  dataSource={store} />
          );
      }
  }
  export default App;

• Any other data source
  Implement a CustomStore.

Regardless of the data source on the input, the ActionSheet always wraps it in the DataSource object. This object allows you to sort, filter, group, and otherwise shape data. To get its instance, call the getDataSource() method.

This option accepts a value of one of the following types:

• Number
  The height in pixels.

• String
  A CSS-accepted measurement of height. For example, "55px", "80%", "inherit".

• Function
  A function returning either of the above. For example:

  JavaScript

  height: function() {
      return window.innerHeight / 1.5;
  }

If you need to update the widget items, reassign the entire items[] array as shown in the following example:

actionSheetInstance.option('items', newItems);

As an alternative to items, you can use the dataSource option. It accepts the DataSource object, whose underlying stores provide an API that allows you to update individual items without reassigning the entire item collection.

Particular fields in objects can control the widget's appearance. See Default Templates for more information.

Set the cancel field of the function's parameter to true to cancel the hiding of the action sheet after the Cancel button is clicked.

When this option is set to true, the widget text flows from right to left, and the layout of elements is reversed. To switch the entire application/site to the right-to-left representation, assign true to the rtlEnabled field of the object passed to the DevExpress.config(config) method.

DevExpress.config({
    rtlEnabled: true
});

The Cancel button closes the action sheet.

This option accepts one of the following values.

• A CSS selector, or a jQuery selector if you use jQuery

  target: '#targetElement';

• A jQuery wrapper

  target: $('#targetElement');

• A DOM element

  target: document.getElementById('#targetElement');

To display the action sheet as a popover specify an element the popover points at via the target option.

This option accepts a value of one of the following types:

• Number
  The width in pixels.

• String
  A CSS-accepted measurement of width. For example, "55px", "80%", "auto", "inherit".

• Function
  A function returning either of the above. For example:

  JavaScript

  width: function() {
      return window.innerWidth / 1.5;
  }
