DevExtreme jQuery - DataSource Options
NOTE
The DataSource allows specifying CustomStore properties in its configuration object, as shown in the following code:
jQuery
JavaScript
var infiniteList = new DevExpress.data.DataSource({
load: function (loadOptions) {
// Loading data objects
},
byKey: function (key) {
// Retrieving a data object by key
}
});Angular
TypeScript
import DataSource from "devextreme/data/data_source";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
infiniteList: DataSource;
constructor() {
this.infiniteList = new DataSource({
load: (loadOptions) => {
// Loading data objects
},
byKey: (key) => {
// Retrieving a data object by key
}
});
}
}Vue
App.vue
<script>

Supported operators: binary operators, "!".
Example:[ "!", [ "dataField", "=", 3 ] ]
Complex filter
Supported operators: binary and unary operators, "and", "or".
Example:[ [ "dataField", "=", 10 ], "and", [ [ "anotherDataField", "<", 3 ], "or", [ "anotherDataField", ">", 11 ] ] ]

export default App;pageSize
Specifies the maximum number of data items per page. Applies only if paginate is true.
Type:
Default Value: 20
When data is grouped, this property specifies the number of groups per page. However, in the DataGrid and TreeList, it specifies the number of rows per page including group rows.
paginate
Specifies whether the DataSource loads data items by pages or all at once. Defaults to false if group is set; otherwise, true.
Type:
Default Value: undefined

When the paginate property is enabled, the postProcess function handles only data available for the selected page. If you need to access all data, process data before it is passed to the store.

pushAggregationTimeout
Specifies the period (in milliseconds) when changes are aggregated before pushing them to the DataSource.
Type:
Default Value: undefined
When this property is undefined, the aggregation period is calculated automatically based on the rendering speed's measurements.
See Also
- push(changes) in: ArrayStore | CustomStore | LocalStore | ODataStore
- reshapeOnPush
requireTotalCount
Type:
If this property is set to true, the Promise that the load() method returns is resolved with a second argument that contains the totalCount field:
JavaScript
var ds = new DevExpress.data.DataSource({
// ...
requireTotalCount: true
});
ds.load()
.done(function (data, extra) {
// "data" contains the loaded data
// "extra" contains the "totalCount" field
});NOTE
When scrolling is infinite in the DataGrid, this property's value is always false.
reshapeOnPush
Specifies whether to reapply sorting, filtering, grouping, and other data processing operations after receiving a push.
Type:
Default Value: false
See Also
- pushAggregationTimeout
- push(changes) in: ArrayStore | CustomStore | LocalStore | ODataStore
searchExpr
In most cases, you should pass the name of a field by whose value data items are searched. Assign an array of field names to this property if you need to search elements by several field values.
jQuery
JavaScript
var ds = new DevExpress.data.DataSource({
// ...
searchExpr: ["firstName", "lastName"]
});Angular
TypeScript
import DataSource from "devextreme/data/data_source";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
ds: DataSource;
constructor() {
this.ds = new DataSource({
// ...
searchExpr: ["firstName", "lastName"]
});
}
}Vue

<script>
import DataSource from 'devextreme/data/data_source';
const ds = new DataSource({
// ...
searchExpr: ['firstName', 'lastName']

}
}

// ...
import DataSource from 'devextreme/data/data_source';
const ds = new DataSource({
// ...
searchExpr: ['firstName', 'lastName']
});
class App extends React.Component {
// ...
}
export default App;You can use this property along with searchOperation and searchValue to specify a simple filter. Use the filter property for more complex filtering conditions. Filters are combined if you specify them in both ways.
NOTE
Searching works when inputting a plain data structure only. However, if you need the searching capability and hierarchical data, transform the plain data using the DataSource's group property.
See Also
searchOperation
Specifies the comparison operation used in searching. The following values are accepted: "=", "<>", ">", ">=", "<", "<=", "startswith", "endswith", "contains", "notcontains".
Type:
Default Value: 'contains'
You can use this property with searchExpr and searchValue to specify a simple filter. Use the filter property for more complex filtering conditions. Filters are combined if you specify them in both ways.
See Also
searchValue
Type:
any
Default Value: null
You can use this property along with searchExpr and searchOperation to specify a simple filter. Use the filter property for more complex filtering conditions. Filters are combined if you specify them in both ways.
