JavaScript/jQuery CardView Types

You can reuse default items and include custom items.

The UI component can allow a user to add, update and delete data. To control which of these operations are allowed, use the allowAdding, allowUpdating and allowDeleting properties.

Paging allows the UI component to load data in portions instead of loading it simultaneously. To enable paging, set the paging.enabled property to true.

Users can switch between pages and change paging settings using the pager or they can scroll the pages. Paging settings apply with any scrolling mode.

Server-side data processing improves the UI component's performance on large datasets. When the server does not implement particular operations (and/or the corresponding remoteOperations fields are false) they are executed on the client. Note that the UI component may send queries to the server while executing a client-side operation.

A user can select rows in a single or multiple mode. In multiple mode, a user can select all rows at once. To disable this feature, assign false to the allowSelectAll property.

The toolbar can contain the following elements as items:

• Predefined controls
  Predefined controls appear on the toolbar depending on whether a specific CardView feature is enabled. The following table illustrates the dependency:

  Control Name	Image	Prerequisites
  addCardButton		editing.allowAdding is true
  columnChooserButton		columnChooser.enabled is true
  searchPanel		searchPanel.visible is true
  selectAllButton		selection.allowSelectAll is true and selection.mode is 'multiple'
  clearSelectionButton		selection.mode is 'single' or 'multiple'

  If you need to customize a predefined control, add an object to the items[] array. This object must contain the control's name and properties that you want to customize. If a control does not need customization, simply include its name in the toolbar.items[] array.

  The example below customizes the Column Chooser button, adds an Add Card button, and enables the corresponding CardView features:

  jQuery

  index.js

  $(function(){
      $("#CardViewContainer").dxCardView({
          // ...
          editing: {
              allowAdding: true
          },
          columnChooser: {
              enabled: true
          },
          toolbar: {
              items: [ "addCardButton", {
                  name: "columnChooserButton",      
                  locateInMenu: "auto",
                  location: "after"
              }]  
          }
      });
  });

  Angular

  app.component.html

  app.module.ts

  <dx-card-view ... >
      <dxo-editing [allowAdding]="true"></dxo-editing>
      <dxo-column-chooser [enabled]="true"></dxo-column-chooser>
      <dxo-toolbar>
          <dxi-item name="addCardButton"></dxi-item>
          <dxi-item 
              name="columnChooserButton"
              locateInMenu="auto"
              location="after">
          </dxi-item>
      </dxo-toolbar>
  </dx-card-view>

  import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
  import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
  import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
  
  import { DxCardViewModule } from 'devextreme-angular';
  
  @NgModule({
      declarations: [
          AppComponent
      ],
      imports: [
          BrowserModule,
          DxCardViewModule,
      ],
      providers: [ ],
      bootstrap: [AppComponent]
  })
  export class AppModule { }

  Vue

  App.vue

  <template>
      <DxCardView ... >
          <DxEditing :allow-adding="true" />
          <DxColumnChooser :enabled="true"/>
          <DxToolbar>
              <DxItem name="addCardButton" />
              <DxItem
                  name="columnChooserButton"
                  locate-in-menu="auto"
                  location="after"
              />
          </DxToolbar>
      </DxCardView>
  </template>
  <script setup lang="ts">
  import { DxCardView, DxEditing, DxColumnChooser, DxToolbar, DxItem } from 'devextreme-vue/card-view';
  </script>

  React

  App.js

  import CardView, { Editing, Toolbar, Item, ColumnChooser } from 'devextreme-react/card-view';
  // ...
  function App() {
      return (
          <CardView ... >
              <Editing allowAdding={true} />
              <ColumnChooser enabled={true} />
              <Toolbar>
                  <Item name="addCardButton" />
                  <Item
                      name="columnChooserButton"
                      locateInMenu="auto"
                      location="after"
                  />
              </Toolbar>
          </CardView>
      );
  }

  IMPORTANT

  CardView does not display controls missing from the items[] array. Ensure that this array includes controls for all enabled features.

• DevExtreme components

  jQuery

  You can use DevExtreme components as toolbar items. Set the widget property to specify the component that you want to use and configure the component's options:

  index.js

  $(function(){
      $("#CardViewContainer").dxCardView({
          // ...
          toolbar: {
              items: [{
                  widget: "dxSelectBox",
                  options: {
                      // SelectBox properties are specified here
                  }
              }]  
          }
      });
  });

  Angular

  You can use DevExtreme components as toolbar items. Declare a dxi-item element to add a supported component:

  app.component.html

  app.module.ts

  <dx-card-view ... >
      <dxo-card-view-toolbar>
          <dxi-card-view-toolbar-item>
              <dx-select-box>
                  <!-- SelectBox properties are specified here -->
              </dx-select-box>
          </dxi-card-view-toolbar-item>
      </dxo-card-view-toolbar>
  </dx-card-view>

  import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
  import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
  import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
  
  import { DxCardViewModule, DxSelectBoxModule } from 'devextreme-angular';
  
  @NgModule({
      declarations: [
          AppComponent
      ],
      imports: [
          BrowserModule,
          DxCardViewModule,
          DxSelectBoxModule,
      ],
      providers: [ ],
      bootstrap: [AppComponent]
  })
  export class AppModule { }

  Vue

  You can use DevExtreme components as toolbar items. Declare a DxItem element to add a supported component:

  App.vue

  <template>
      <DxCardView ... >
          <DxToolbar>
              <DxItem>
                  <DxSelectBox>
                      <!-- SelectBox properties are specified here -->
                  </DxSelectBox>
              </DxItem>
          </DxToolbar>
      </DxCardView>
  </template>
  <script setup lang="ts">
  import { DxCardView, DxToolbar, DxItem } from 'devextreme-vue/card-view';
  import { DxSelectBox } from 'devextreme-vue/select-box';
  </script>

  React

  You can use DevExtreme components as toolbar items. Declare an Item element to add a supported component:

  App.js

  import { SelectBox } from 'devextreme-react/select-box';
  import CardView, { Toolbar, Item } from 'devextreme-react/card-view';
  // ...
  function App() {
      return (
          <CardView ... >
              <Toolbar>
                  <Item>
                      <SelectBox>
                          {/* SelectBox properties are specified here */}
                      </SelectBox>
                  </Item>
              </Toolbar>
          </CardView>
      );
  }

• Custom controls
  To use a custom control, specify a template.
