Bootstrap Server Side Sorting Cont....


On my previous post I had already mentioned about how to apply the sort to Bootstrap paginated tables. By making the following changes server side sorting can be achieved along with pagination.

On Filter Model

self.sortBy = ko.observable('Id');//Default sort Column
self.sortAscending = ko.observable(false);
self.iconType = ko.observable('glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-down'); // Icon to appear near Column


No Changes to Adarsh Log Model or Adarsh Log list Model


Knockout.js View Model for Adarsh Log Changes

Add the sortTable  method to it

self.sortTable = function (viewModel, e) {
            var columClicked = $(e.target).attr("data-column")
            var sortAscending = (self.filter().sortAscending() === true) ? false : true;
            self.filter().sortAscending(sortAscending);
            self.filter().sortBy(columClicked);
          
            datacontext.getAllPost(self.adarshLogListModel, config.adarshLogUrl, model.adarshLogListModel, self.filter).always(function () {
                var list = [];
                if (self.filter().currentPageIndex() <= 0) {
                    self.filter().enablePrev(false);
                }
                self.adarshLogListModel().adarshLogList().forEach(function (item) {
                    var newRecord = new model.adarshLog();
                    ko.mapping.fromJS(item, {}, newRecord); 
                    list.push(newRecord);
                });
                self.adarshLogs(list);
                // var newFilter = model.filter;
                ko.mapping.fromJS(self.adarshLogListModel().filterModel(), {}, self.filter());
                //(newFilter);
                self.individualPageList(self.adarshLogListModel().filterModel().individualPageList());
                if (self.filter().currentPageIndex() <= 1) {
                    self.filter().enablePrev(false);
                }
                if (self.filter().currentPageIndex() >= self.filter().totalPageCount()) {
                    self.filter().enableNext(false);
                }
                self.isBusy(false);
                self.filter().iconType((sortAscending === false) ? "glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-down" : "glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-up");
            });
        }


Filter.CS C#Model Changes

Add Following Properties

  public string SortBy { get; set; }
  public bool SortAscending { get; set; }

No Changes to Get All WebApi Controller Method

GetAll Repository Change


Before applying the pagination, add the sorting
switch (filter.SortBy)
                    {
                        case "Id":
                            if(filter.SortAscending)
                                adarshLogList = adarshLogList.OrderBy(a => a.Id);
                            else
                                adarshLogList = adarshLogList.OrderByDescending(a => a.Id);
                            break;
                        case "Name":
                            if (filter.SortAscending)
                                adarshLogList = adarshLogList.OrderBy(a => a.Name);
                            else
                                adarshLogList = adarshLogList.OrderByDescending(a => a.Name);
                            break;
                    }



Changes in View List View


<table class="table table-striped" id="tbUsers">
   
    <thead>
        <tr data-bind="click: $root.sortTable" class="pointerControl">
            <th data-column="Id">
                Id
                <span data-bind="attr: { class: sortBy() == 'Id' ? 'isVisible' : 'isHidden' }">

            <td data-bind="text: name"></td>
            <td class="col-sm-1">

Emergence and Creative Confidence

I started my career on 1st of September 2008 as a software developer at Manchester. Some people in my personal life might know about it. I like to say, that day as the day I found an aura in my life, transformation from the worst possible situation into a new beginning in a matter of 1 hour. The week before, I got an interview confirmation from that company and I was not at all excited about it because I know it is going to be the final interview in UK if I am unsuccessful. I was in that mental state because I was not successful for past 12 such occurrences and not expecting anything different. This shows I was not a brilliant person but had a strong passion and hardworking nature to achieve success. I passed my masters on Sep 2007 and after that, I decided to work only in software development, and lots of people including my parents told this as a worst possible decision. To be precise, they have no issues in choosing software development, but on my adamant decision only software de...

Single page application (SPA) using ext.js

what is spa? Single page application are applications that fit in one page with rich and fluid user experiences like a desktop based applications. Why is SPA? All web based elements (html, CSS,javascript) are downloaded from the server on single page load and avoid the continuous page post back. i can explain what this mean. Suppose your web application is made of certain flow and it consists of 5 different pages. Each page need to get data from the user and save before moving to the next page. So when we navigate from one page to other it need to make a round trip to server to store the data in one page and get the data for the next page to display. but in spa we can avoid the continuous post backs. The whole page will not post back any time other than the first load. But it communicate to the server dynamically behind the scene and can achieve the same functionality. Spa using ext.js designing a SPA using ext.js is a challenging task if you are unaware about the ext.js ...
