I do have an application where user selects an option to get grid data from server side and depend upon what option user selects, the number of columns in grid data may vary. I am using Angularjs and ng-grid to display data. The first time, it works fine and it does display correct number of columns (e.g 2 columns). but when user selects other option, which gets 3 columns grid-data, ng-grid still thinks of old columns information and tries to map second 3-cols grid-data in old 2 columns. Since columns info is not available, I cannot use columnDefs in controller. How can I refresh ng-grid columns.
Note: I tried to put code at jsFiddle (http://jsfiddle.net/User888/pwUeX/11/), but somehow, I am not able to run it. My complete code is here.
Also: How can I display row# in ng-grid without sending it from server.
My HTML file:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html ng-app="myApp">
<head lang="en">
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>test </title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/style.css" />
</head>
<body ng-controller="GridExampleCtrl">
<div>
Grid Selection:
<select ng-model="gridSelectedId">
<option ng-repeat="gridSel in gridSels" value="{{gridSel.GridSelId}}">{{gridSel.GridSelName}}</option>
</select>
<br/>User selected: {{gridSelectedId}} <br><hr>
<div>
<button ng-click="display()">Display</button><hr>
<div class="gridStyle" ng-grid="gridOptions"></div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
My Controller is:
var app = angular.module('myApp', ['ngGrid']);
app.controller('GridExampleCtrl', function ($scope, $http, $timeout) {
$scope.myData = [];
$scope.grid1 = [{name: "grid1a", age: 50},
{name: "grid1b", age: 43},
{name: "grid1c", age: 50},
{name: "grid1d", age: 29},
{name: "grid1e", age: 34}];
$scope.grid2 = [{lastname: "grid2a", age: 50, state:'Idaho'},
{lastname: "grid2b", age: 43, state:'NewYork'},
{lastname: "grid2c", age: 50, state:'California'},
{lastname: "grid2d", age: 29, state:'Arizona'},
{lastname: "grid2e", age: 34, state:'Utah'}];
$scope.gridSels = [
{GridSelId : 1, GridSelName : 'Grid 1' },
{GridSelId : 2, GridSelName : 'Grid 2' }
]
$scope.gridOptions = {
data: 'myData',
enableColumnResize: true,
showGroupPanel: true,
//pagingOptions: $scope.pagingOptions
};
$scope.display = function(){
console.log("User selected grid : " + $scope.gridSelectedId);
if ($scope.gridSelectedId == 1) {
$scope.myData = $scope.grid1;
} else {
$scope.myData = $scope.grid2;
}
};
});
and css looks like:
.gridStyle {
border: 1px solid rgb(212,212,212);
width: 800px;
height: 400px;
}
