Is there a easy way to get dojo/dijit toolkit working with knockout observables?

If I have a declared select

<select id="sel1" dojoType="dijit.form.Select" >...

And I add my knockout data binding

<select id="sel1" dojoType="dijit.form.Select" data-bind=".....">...

If the knockout array/bind is initialised prior to the dojo.ready they the select box is populated with the correct values, however because dojo re-writes the templates we lose our observables.

I'd rather not migrate to dojo observables but this seems like I'd have to in this case.

I am continuing to investigate but it looks like we'll need to make this move.

Solution

  • Edit: This is not the answer, although it is a starting point.

    It looks like there is knockout dojo connector.

    https://github.com/imankulov/knockout-dojo-connector/blob/master/sample.html

    But no samples for observablearrays and binding with selects.
