Namespace: DevExpress.DashboardCommon

Assembly: DevExpress.Dashboard.v25.1.Core.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Dashboard.Core

Type	Default	Description
String	null	An Object data source’s identifier.

Remarks

Use the DataId property to identify the data source for which the DataLoading event is raised.

This example shows how to bind the ASP.NET MVC Dashboard extension to the Object Data Source and use the DashboardConfigurator.DataLoading event to supply the data source with data:

DashboardConfig.cs

using System.Web.Routing;
using DevExpress.DashboardWeb;
using DevExpress.DashboardWeb.Mvc;
using DevExpress.DashboardCommon;

namespace DashboardMVC {
    public static class DashboardConfig {
        public static void RegisterService(RouteCollection routes) {
            routes.MapDashboardRoute("dashboardControl");

            DashboardFileStorage dashboardFileStorage = new DashboardFileStorage("~/App_Data/Dashboards");
            DashboardConfigurator.Default.SetDashboardStorage(dashboardFileStorage);
            DataSourceInMemoryStorage dataSourceStorage = new DataSourceInMemoryStorage();
             // Registers an Object data source.
            DashboardObjectDataSource objDataSource = new DashboardObjectDataSource("Object Data Source");
            objDataSource.DataId = "Object Data Source ID";
            dataSourceStorage.RegisterDataSource("objDataSource", objDataSource.SaveToXml());
            DashboardConfigurator.Default.SetDataSourceStorage(dataSourceStorage);
            DashboardConfigurator.Default.DataLoading += DataLoading;
        }
         private static void DataLoading(object sender, DataLoadingWebEventArgs e) {
            if(e.DataId == "Object Data Source ID") {
                e.Data = Invoices.CreateData();
            }
        }
    }
}

DashboardConfig.vb

Imports System.Web.Routing
Imports DevExpress.DashboardWeb
Imports DevExpress.DashboardWeb.Mvc
Imports DevExpress.DashboardCommon

Namespace DashboardMVC
    Public Module DashboardConfig
        Public Sub RegisterService(ByVal routes As RouteCollection)
            routes.MapDashboardRoute("dashboardControl")

            Dim dashboardFileStorage As New DashboardFileStorage("~/App_Data/Dashboards")
            DashboardConfigurator.Default.SetDashboardStorage(dashboardFileStorage)
             Dim dataSourceStorage As New DataSourceInMemoryStorage()
             ' Registers an Object data source.
            Dim objDataSource As New DashboardObjectDataSource("Object Data Source")
            objDataSource.DataId = "Object Data Source ID"
            dataSourceStorage.RegisterDataSource("objDataSource", objDataSource.SaveToXml())
            DashboardConfigurator.Default.SetDataSourceStorage(dataSourceStorage)
            AddHandler DashboardConfigurator.Default.DataLoading, AddressOf DataLoading
        End Sub
         Private Sub DataLoading(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As DataLoadingWebEventArgs)
            If e.DataId = "Object Data Source ID" Then
                e.Data = Invoices.CreateData()
            End If
         End Sub
    End Module
End Namespace
