JavaScript/jQuery CardView Methods
addCard()
Adds an empty card and switches it to the editing state.
Use this method if you want to add an empty card.
This method operates when paging.enabled is set to false, or when dataSource.reshapeOnPush is true and remoteOperations is false.
beginCustomLoading(text)
Displays the load panel.
The text for the load panel to display.
The load panel opens automatically when the UI component processes or retrieves data. To open the load panel manually, call this method. Without an argument, this method displays text from the loadPanel.text property. Customize the load panel through the loadPanel configuration. When opened manually, the load panel remains visible until endCustomLoading() is called.

beginUpdate()
Postpones rendering that can negatively affect performance until the endUpdate() method is called.
The beginUpdate() and endUpdate() methods reduce the number of renders in cases where extra rendering can negatively affect performance.

byKey()
Gets a data object with a specific key.
The data object's key.
The data object.
defaultOptions(rule)
Specifies the device-dependent default configuration properties for this component.
The component's default device properties.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| device | | |
Device parameters. |
| options |
Options to be applied. |
defaultOptions is a static method that the UI component class supports. The following code demonstrates how to specify default properties for all instances of the CardView UI component in an application executed on the desktop.
jQuery
DevExpress.ui.dxCardView.defaultOptions({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the CardView properties
}
});Angular
import CardView, { Properties } from "devextreme/ui/card_view";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
constructor () {
CardView.defaultOptions<Properties>({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the CardView properties
}
});
}
}Vue
<template>
<div>
<DxCardView id="cardView1" />
<DxCardView id="cardView2" />
</div>
</template>
<script>
import DxCardView from "devextreme-vue/card-view";
import CardView from "devextreme/ui/card_view";
CardView.defaultOptions({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the CardView properties
}
});
export default {
components: {
DxCardView
}
}
</script>React
import dxCardView from "devextreme/ui/card_view";
import CardView from "devextreme-react/card-view";
dxCardView.defaultOptions({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the CardView properties
}
});
export default function App() {
return (
<div>
<CardView id="cardView1" />
<CardView id="cardView2" />
</div>
)
}You can also set rules for multiple device types:
jQuery
const devicesConfig = [
{ deviceType: 'desktop' },
{ deviceType: 'tablet' },
{ deviceType: 'phone' },
];
devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => {
DevExpress.ui.dxCardView.defaultOptions({
device: deviceConfig,
options: {
// Here go the CardView properties
}
});
});Angular
import CardView, { Properties } from "devextreme/ui/card_view";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
constructor () {
const devicesConfig = [
{ deviceType: 'desktop' },
{ deviceType: 'tablet' },
{ deviceType: 'phone' },
];
devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => {
CardView.defaultOptions<Properties>({
device: deviceConfig,
options: {
// Here go the CardView properties
}
});
});
}
}Vue
<template>
<div>
<DxCardView />
</div>
</template>
<script>
import DxCardView from "devextreme-vue/card-view";
import CardView from "devextreme/ui/card_view";
const devicesConfig = [
{ deviceType: 'desktop' },
{ deviceType: 'tablet' },
{ deviceType: 'phone' },
];
devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => {
CardView.defaultOptions({
device: deviceConfig,
options: {
// Here go the CardView properties
}
});
});
export default {
components: {
DxCardView
}
}
</script>React
import dxCardView from "devextreme/ui/card_view";
import CardView from "devextreme-react/card-view";
const devicesConfig = [
{ deviceType: 'desktop' },
{ deviceType: 'tablet' },
{ deviceType: 'phone' },
];
devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => {
dxCardView.defaultOptions({
device: deviceConfig,
options: {
// Here go the CardView properties
}
});
});
export default function App() {
return (
<div>
<CardView />
</div>
)
}deselectAll()
Clears the selection of all cards on all pages or the currently rendered page only.
The value of the selectAllMode property determines whether this method clears selections from all cards across all pages or only from visible pages. If a filter is in effect, selections clear only from cards that match filter conditions. To clear all selections regardless selectAllMode or filters, use the clearSelection() method.
deselectCards(keys)
Cancels the selection of cards with specific keys.
Array<any>
The card keys.
dispose()
Disposes of all the resources allocated to the CardView instance.
jQuery
After calling this method, remove the DOM element associated with the UI component:
$("#myCardView").dxCardView("dispose");
$("#myCardView").remove();Angular
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
<dx-card-view ...
*ngIf="condition">
</dx-card-view>Vue
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
<template>
<DxCardView ...
v-if="condition">
</DxCardView>
</template>
<script>
import DxCardView from 'devextreme-vue/card-view';
export default {
components: {
DxCardView
}
}
</script>React
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
import React from 'react';
import CardView from 'devextreme-react/card-view';
function DxCardView(props) {
if (!props.shouldRender) {
return null;
}
return (
<CardView ... >
</CardView>
);
}
class App extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<DxCardView shouldRender="condition" />
);
}
}
export default App;editCard(cardIndex)
Switches a card with a specific index to the editing state.
The card index.
element()
Gets the root UI component element.
An HTML element or a jQuery element when you use jQuery.
See Also
endCustomLoading()
Hides the load panel.
CardView hides the load panel automatically when data is ready. If you used the beginCustomLoading(text) method to display the load panel, call the endCustomLoading() method to remove it.
See Also
endUpdate()
Refreshes the UI component after a call of the beginUpdate() method.
The beginUpdate() and endUpdate() methods reduce the number of renders in cases where extra rendering can negatively affect performance.

getInstance is a static method that the UI component class supports. The following code demonstrates how to get the CardView instance found in an element with the myCardView ID:
// Modular approach
import CardView from "devextreme/ui/card_view";
...
let element = document.getElementById("myCardView");
let instance = CardView.getInstance(element) as CardView;
// Non-modular approach
let element = document.getElementById("myCardView");
