getSelectedRows
JavaScript API Reference/Ab.grid.ReportGrid object
getSelectedRows()
Returns an array of JS objects containing selected grid rows, containing visible fields and primary keys.
Each data row JS object contains:
-
formatted visible field values
(
dataRow['project.status']
) -
unformatted visible field
values (
dataRow['project.status.raw']
) -
primary key values, even
if the report does not display any of the primary key values(
dataRow['project.project_id.key']
) - reference to the parent report grid object
Because of this last reference, you should never pass data row objects
directly to the
toJSON()
function.
If you need to serialize data rows to JSON format, you will need to create
new objects and copy data values from data row objects into new objects
– then you can pass new objects to the
toJSON()
function.
Note that a raw value is only stored and is only accessible if the field value has been formatted
Returns:
JS array containing JS objects
containing names and values:
[
{name_1: value_1, name_2: value_2, ...},
{name_1: value_1, name_2: value_2, ...}
]
Parameters: none
Example:
Get selected rows:
var
selectedRows = this.grid.getSelectedRows();
for (var i = 0; i < selectedRows.length; i++) {
var dataRow = selectedRows[i];
// data row objects reference parent grid control
// you should never pass data row objects to toJSON()
// to serialize data rows to JSON, create new objects:
var dataRowCopy = new Object();
dataRowCopy['project.project_id'] =
dataRow['project.project_id'];
dataRowCopy['project.status'] =
dataRow['project.status'];
alert(toJSON(dataRowCopy));
}
