JavaScript/jQuery Scheduler - resources
Each element of this array is an object that defines a resource kind - a room, a car or any other resource kind. A resource kind object must have at least the following fields.
dataSource
Specify the available resources of this kind (room1, room2, etc.).fieldExpr
The name of the appointment object field that specifies a resource of this kind (e.g., "room").
There are more fields that can be specified within a resource kind object. They are listed below. For details on how to define a resource and assign it to scheduler appointments, refer to the Resources article. The Scheduler does not support grouping resources by multiple data fields in the agenda view.
allowMultiple
The appointment form displays the SelectBox UI component to select a single resource. If the allowMultiple property is set to true, the appointment form displays the TagBox UI component to select one or more resources.
Note that you should specify resources for appointments in your data source according to the allowMultiple property value: - As a scalar value (allowMultiple=false, the default value). - As an array of scalar values (allowMultiple=true).
jQuery
$(function() { $("#scheduler").dxScheduler({ resources: [ { fieldExpr: 'roomId', dataSource: rooms, label: 'Room', }, { fieldExpr: 'assigneeId', allowMultiple: true, dataSource: assignees, label: 'Assignee', }], //... }); });
const data = [ { text: 'Website Re-Design Plan', roomId: 1, assigneeId: [3, 4], startDate: new Date('2021-04-26T16:30:00.000Z'), endDate: new Date('2021-04-26T18:30:00.000Z'), }, // ... ];

colorExpr
Specifies the resource object field that is used as a resource color.
dataSource
Each resource instance is an object with the id
, color
, and text
fields. If your resource instances have a different structure, specify the valueExpr, colorExpr and displayExpr properties.
Depending on your data source, specify the dataSource property as follows. In each case, also specify the fieldExpr property to bind appointments to resource instances.
Data Array
Assign the array to the dataSource property. View DemoRead-Only Data in JSON Format
Set the dataSource property to the URL of a JSON file or service that returns JSON data.OData

Implement a CustomStore.
Review the following notes about data binding:
If you explicitly wrap the store in the DataSource object, set the paginate property to false to prevent data from partitioning.
Data field names cannot be equal to
this
and should not contain the following characters:.

displayExpr
Specifies which field from the resource data objects provides values to be displayed in the resource editor.
Set this property to the name of a data field that provides displayed values...
displayExpr: "name"
... or to a function that returns the displayed value:
displayExpr: function(item) { // "item" can be null return item && 'ID: ' + item.id + ', Name: ' + item.name; }

label
Specifies the label of the Appointment popup window field that allows end users to assign a resource of this kind.
useColorAsDefault
Appointments that have a single resource kind inherit its color. Appointments with several resource kinds are colored like the one whose useColorAsDefault property is set to true, which is the last resource kind in the resources array by default.
valueExpr
Specifies the resource object field that is used as a value of the Resource editor in the Appointment popup window.
End users can use a field in the Appointment pop-up window to choose a resource for the appointment. The label field of the resource kind object specifies this field's label. The editor that is used to select a resource depends on the value of the allowMultiple field. The TagBox UI component is used when multiple selection is possible, and the SelectBox UI component is used when only a single resource can be selected. These UI components have the displayExpr and valueExpr properties to specify the displayed text and the selected item's actual value. These properties are set to the displayExpr and valueExpr field values of the resource kind object.
