GetData from SqlDataSource

Asked by Allan
12 years ago.

Is there any way when using the update panel version of this awesome tool to make the DayPilot get the data from a SQL Data Source instead of the data provided in the code behind?

Here is a snippet of the code found in the downlaoded version of DayPilot Lite.
protected void Page_Load(object sEnder, EventArgs e)
{
if (!IsPostBack)
{

Calendar1.SelectedDate = DateTime.Today;
setWeek();

DayPilotCalendar2.DataSource = getData();
DataBind();
}

}

protected DataTable getData()
{
DataTable dt;
dt = new DataTable();
dt.Columns.Add("CourseID", typeof(string));
dt.Columns.Add("Start", typeof(DateTime));
dt.Columns.Add("End", typeof(DateTime));
dt.Columns.Add("Name", typeof(string));
dt.Columns.Add("ID", typeof(string));

DataRow dr;

dr = dt.NewRow();
dr["ID"] = 0;
dr["CourseID"] = 0;
dr["Start"] = Convert.ToDateTime("15:50");
dr["End"] = Convert.ToDateTime("15:55");
dr["Name"] = "Event 1";
dt.Rows.Add(dr);

dr = dt.NewRow();
dr["ID"] = 1;
dr["CourseID"] = 1;
dr["Start"] = Convert.ToDateTime("16:00");
dr["End"] = Convert.ToDateTime("17:00");
dr["Name"] = "Event 2";
dt.Rows.Add(dr);

dr = dt.NewRow();
dr["ID"] = 2;
dr["CourseID"] = 2;
dr["Start"] = Convert.ToDateTime("16:15");
dr["End"] = Convert.ToDateTime("18:45");
dr["Name"] = "Event 3";
dt.Rows.Add(dr);

dr = dt.NewRow();
dr["ID"] = 3;
dr["CourseID"] = 3;
dr["Start"] = Convert.ToDateTime("16:30");
dr["End"] = Convert.ToDateTime("17:30");
dr["Name"] = "Sales Dept. Meeting Once Again";
dt.Rows.Add(dr);

dr = dt.NewRow();
dr["ID"] = 4;
dr["CourseID"] = 4;
dr["Start"] = Convert.ToDateTime("8:00");
dr["End"] = Convert.ToDateTime("9:00");
dr["Name"] = "Event 4";
dt.Rows.Add(dr);

dr = dt.NewRow();
dr["ID"] = 5;
dr["CourseID"] = 5;
dr["Start"] = Convert.ToDateTime("22:00");
dr["End"] = Convert.ToDateTime("6:00").AddDays(1);
dr["Name"] = "Event 5";
dt.Rows.Add(dr);

dr = dt.NewRow();
dr["ID"] = 6;
dr["CourseID"] = 6;
dr["Start"] = Convert.ToDateTime("11:00");
dr["End"] = Convert.ToDateTime("13:00");
dr["Name"] = "Event 6";
dt.Rows.Add(dr);

return dt;

}

Id like to alter this scenario to use data from my SQL Data Source but don't know how.

Many thanks indeed.

Yes, you can use DayPilotCalendar2.DataSourceID = "SqlDataSource1";
