How do I get my list view page to refresh when I load new data into my kendo.data.DataSource?
I'm working on a Hybrid Mobile app using Telerik AppBuilder. I have a simple listview that is bound to a data source. I use an ajax POST request to load some JSON, then place it in the datasource. I have two pages, home and list view. The home has some anchors that lead to a single list view page, but with different data id values to produce different lists.
The first time I the list view page it loads correctly. After that, the list view does not refresh when I reload the datasource; the contents of the first list always display no matter what data id value I send in.
Here is the source:
JavaScript
window.APP =
{
blamListSource: null,
home:
{
fetchBlam: function(event)
{
var argumentData = event.button.data();
var requestBody =
{
"requestVersionId": "1",
"blamId": argumentData.id.toString()
};
$.ajax(
{
url: getBlamURI,
type: "POST",
data: JSON.stringify(requestBody),
dataType: "json",
contentType: 'application/json',
success: function(requestData, textStatus, jqxhr)
{
APP.blamListSource = new kendo.data.DataSource(
{
data: requestData.userList,
});
APP.blamListSource.read();
app.navigate("views/blamlist.html");
},
error: function(jqxhr, textStatus, error)
{
alert("Error");
},
});
}
}
};
home.html
<div data-role="view" data-title="Home" data-layout="main"
data-model="APP.models.home" data-zoom="true">
<div id="form-blam" data-role="content">
<a id="commercial" data-role="button"
data-bind="click: fetchBlam" data-id="27">Something</a>
<a id="personal" data-role="button"
data-bind="click: fetchBlam" data-id="39">Something Else</a>
</div>
</div>
views/blamlist.html
<div data-role="view" data-title="Blam List" data-layout="main"
data-model="APP" data-zoom="true">
<div data-role="navbar">
<a class="nav-button" data-align="left" data-role="backbutton">Back</a>
</div>
<ul id="blam-listview" data-style="inset" data-role="listview"
data-template="blamListTemplate" data-bind="source: blamListSource">
</ul>
<p id="no-contactlist-span" hidden="hidden" class="no-items-msg">
<b>No blam.</b>
</p>
</div>
<!-- Blam ListView Template -->
<script type="text/x-kendo-template" id="blamListTemplate">
<div>
<div>
<img id="blamPhoto" src="#: data.photoUri #"/>
</div>
<div>
<div id="name">#: data.name #</div>
<div>#: data.title #</div>
<div>
<div>
<a data-role="button" class="callimg"
data-phone="#: data.phone #" href="tel:#: data.phone #"
data-rel="external"></a>
</div>
<div>
<a data-role="button" class="emailimg"
href="mailto:#: data.email #"
data-rel="external"></a>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</script>
It appears to be fairly easy.
Add data-reload="true" to the view.
Old - does not refresh
<div data-role="view" data-title="Blam List" data-layout="main"
data-model="APP" data-zoom="true">
New - refreshes
<div data-role="view" data-title="Blam List" data-layout="main"
data-model="APP" data-zoom="true" data-reload="true">
Edit I accidentally put "data-refresh", which is wrong. The correct value (edited to be correct) is "data-reload".
