Datatable : format of collectValues() return

Webix JS
1

Hi,

I have a problem with the format of the array returned by the collectValues function (used in a datatable).

code :

var my_array = $$(‘myid’).collectValues(‘column_id’);

How to list the values of my_array (values of column_id) ?

my_arrays seems to be composed of an object “id” and an object “value”.

I don’t know how to get the values.

any ideas ?

thanks

Hi,

The collectValues method is used to get data for suggest lists used by column filters. It is expected that it return id-value pairs.

If you need all the values for the column as simple array, you can loop through the data in such a way:

var values = [];
dtable.data.each(function(obj){
   values.push(obj.column_id);
});

where column_id is the name of the necessary column.
