<p>The information read from an Ajax data source can be arbitrarily complex, but still be displayed by
|
2013-12-19 15:03:24 +01:00
|
|
|
DataTables through the <a href="//datatables.net/reference/option/columns.data"><code class="option"
|
|
|
|
|
title="Initialisation option">columns.data</code></a> option, which is particularly useful for working
|

with JSON feeds in an already defined format.</p>

<p>The <a href="//datatables.net/reference/option/columns.data"><code class="option" title=
|
2013-10-16 13:13:30 +02:00
|
|
|
"Initialisation option">columns.data</code></a> option has the ability to read information not only
|
|
|
|
|
from objects, but also from arrays using the same dotted object syntax as for objects. In addition to
|
2013-12-19 15:03:24 +01:00
|
|
|
this, when working with an array data source <a href=
|
|
|
|
|
"//datatables.net/reference/option/columns.data"><code class="option" title=
|
|
|
|
|
"Initialisation option">columns.data</code></a> can process the data to combine and display the data in
|
|
|
|
|
simple forms (more complex forms can be defined by using <a href=
|
|
|
|
|
"//datatables.net/reference/option/columns.data"><code class="option" title=
|
2013-10-16 13:13:30 +02:00
|
|
|
"Initialisation option">columns.data</code></a> as a function).</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>This example shows two different aspects of using <a href=
|
2013-12-19 15:03:24 +01:00
|
|
|
"//datatables.net/reference/option/columns.data"><code class="option" title=
|
2013-10-16 13:13:30 +02:00
|
|
|
"Initialisation option">columns.data</code></a> to read arrays:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The <em>Name</em> column is sourced from an array of two elements (first and last name), which
|
|
|
|
|
are automatically concatenated together. This is done by using array bracket syntax, with the
|
|
|
|
|
characters between the brackets being used as the glue between elements (e.g. <code>name[,
|
|
|
|
|
]</code>).</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The <em>Position</em>, <em>Start date</em> and <em>Salary</em> columns are read directly from
|
|
|
|
|
array elements using dotted object notation (e.g. <code>hr.0</code>). Note that the order in which
|
|
|
|
|
the data can be used in the columns does not have to match the order in which it is defined in the
|
|
|
|
|
data source. The structure of the row's data source in this example is:</li>
