How do I get the current line in Kendo context menu?
I have a Kendo context menu for a Kendo grid. I want to extract the value of the current row. It's my opinion:
@(Html.Kendo().Grid<Class>()
.Name("reqRows")
.Columns(columns =>
{
columns.Bound(x => x.0);
})
)
@(Html.Kendo().ContextMenu()
.Name("brc")
.Target("#reqRows")
.Items(items =>
{
items.Add()
.Text("1").LinkHtmlAttributes(new { onClick = "confirm()" });
})
)
<script>
function confirm(e) {
alert(e);
var dataItem = this.dataItem($(e.currentTarget).closest("tr"));
alert(dataItem.0);
}
</script>
I am getting the value Undefined
for e
. How can I retrieve the current line? And can I extract Model.Id
which is not related in columns?

You can use event Select
:
@(Html.Kendo().ContextMenu()
.Name("brc")
.Target("#reqRows")
.Items(items =>
{
items.Add().Text("1");
})
.Events(e => e.Select("selectItem"))
)
Then select the selected item as follows:
function selectItem(e) {
var grid = $(e.target).data("kendoGrid");
var item = grid.dataItem(grid.select());
var data = item.SomeColumn;
}
If you open the context menu with the right mouse button, it will not select the default row, but item
will undefined
. Add this javascript to make sure the row is selected (note your grid should be .Selectable()
):
$("#reqRows").on("mousedown", "tr[role='row']", function (e) {
if (e.which === 3) {
$("#reqRows tbody tr").removeClass("k-state-selected");
$(this).addClass("k-state-selected");
}
});
If you want an ID, you need to bind it to the grid. Just keep it hidden:
@(Html.Kendo().Grid<Class>()
.Name("reqRows")
.Columns(columns =>
{
columns.Bound(x => x.Id).Hidden();
columns.Bound(x => x.SomeColumn);
})
)

This approach only works when your grid is a Ajax
snap . When you have Server
a binding , $(e.target).data("kendoGrid")
has a value of null / undefined.
In this case, I did the following:
-
Define a template on a column with some hidden fields:
... columns.Bound(pg => pg.FileName) .Title("My column") .Template( @<text> @* Store information for JS in hidden row fields. *@ <input type="hidden" class="unique-id-hidden" value="@item.UniqueID" /> @* Output the visible content. *@ <div> @item.FileName </div> </text>); ...
-
Later, in the
select
context menu handler , I do something like:function selectItem(e) { var uniqueID = $(e.target).closest("tr").find('.unique-id-hidden').first().val(); // Do something with the data. }
To get the menu item that triggered the event, you can use $(e.item)
.
