Situation:
kendo DataSource
var ordersDataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
type: "odata",
transport: {
read: {
url: "http://localhost/odata.svc/Orders?$expand=OrderDetails"
}
},
schema: {
type: "json",
data: function(response){
return response.value;
}
total: function(response){
return response['odata.count'];
}
},
serverPaging: true,
serverFiltering: true,
serverSorting: true
})
the json data read from the odata source is like:
{
odata.metadata: "xxxx",
odata.count: "5",
value: [
{
OrderId: 1,
OrderedDate: "2013-02-20",
OrderInfoA: "Info A",
OrderInfoB: "Info B"
OrderDetails: [
{
OrderDetailId: 6,
OrderDetailInfoC: "Info C",
OrderDetailInfoD: "Info D"
},
{
//Another OrderDetail's data
}
]
},
{
// Another Order's data
}
]
}
Question 1:
1.If I wanna define a "computed" property: OrderedDateRelative, which should be the number of days between Today(2013-02-25) and the Day the Order was Created(2013-02-20), Like: "5 days ago", HOW can i achieve this in the client side?

Question 2 --UPDATE--
2.Every Order has its Nested Property OrderDetails, so is it possible to define a Calculated Field for the Nested OrderDetails Property? Like: OrderDetailInfoCAndD for each OrderDetail, and the value should be something like: OrderDetailInfoC + OrderDetailInfoD, which is "Info C Info D"?
Thanks,

You can create a calculated field by specifying the model of the data source:
dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
data: [
{ first: "John", last: "Doe" },
{ first: "Jane", last: "Doe" }
],
schema: {
model: {
// Calculated field
fullName: function() {
return this.get("first") + " " + this.get("last");
}
}
}
});
