In Datatables 1.10 the ajax server side parameters changed from
public class DataTableParamModel
{
public string sEcho{ get; set; }
public string sSearch{ get; set; }
public int iDisplayLength{ get; set; }
public int iDisplayStart{ get; set; }
public int iColumns{ get; set; }
public int iSortingCols{ get; set; }
public string sColumns{ get; set; }
}
to (API Here http://datatables.net/manual/server-side)
columns[i][data]
columns[i][name]
columns[i][orderable]
columns[i][search][regex]
columns[i][search][value]
columns[i][searchable]
...
draw
length
order[i][column]
order[i][dir]
...
search[regex]
search[value]
start
Some are easy to bind
public class DataTableParamModel
{
public string draw { get; set; }
public int length{ get; set; }
public int start { get; set; }
}
But the new array format looks tricky.
What is the new appropriate model to map the new parameter format?
Here is a model binder and class that will bind these new parameters...
Nuget Package: https://www.nuget.org/packages/Wetware.DataTables
Parameter Model:

Usage:
MyController.cs
public JsonResult DataTablesList(DTParameterModel model)
{
...
}
MVC6
If you're going to MVC6 you no longer need the model binder as MVC6 includes a JQueryFormValueProvider into the default model binder that can bind these values.
The model classes themselves may still be useful, however.
There is a bug to be fixed in 2.1.0 that doesn't allow binding for HttpGet but still works for HttpPost
Give this a try #shoe: datatables-mvc project: https://github.com/ALMMa/datatables-mvc
I changed my javascript to use the legacy ajax params option which uses the old parameters to send to the server. This is done through $.fn.dataTable.ext.legacy.ajax = true; so now my code becomes something like...
$.fn.dataTable.ext.legacy.ajax = true;
var datatable = $('#data-table').DataTable({
"processing": true,
"serverSide": true,
"ajax": "MyController/AjaxHandlerPaging",
"pageLength": 25,
"order": [[2, 'desc']],
"columns": []
});
Know this post is 2 years old but to those who want to use this with ASP.Net Core MVC 6. This is the converted/ upgraded answer provided by #Shoe

I ran into the same issue when moving to 1.10. Basically, I changed my parameter class like this (getting rid of the unsupported parameters):
public class jQueryDataTableParamModel
{
/// <summary>
/// Request sequence number sent by DataTable,
/// same value must be returned in response
/// </summary>
public string draw { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// Number of records that should be shown in table
/// </summary>
public int length { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// First record that should be shown(used for paging)
/// </summary>
public int start { get; set; }
}
In my controller, I get the search value, sort order, and sort column like this:
var searchString = Request["search[value]"];
var sortColumnIndex = Convert.ToInt32(Request["order[0][column]"]);
var sortDirection = Request["order[0][dir]"]; // asc or desc
The full server side binding implementation can be found here. I ran into a similar issue and this was how I went about solving it.

And here i have the two classes representing the database tables:

/// <summary>
/// Id of the session, primary key of the table.

/// <summary>
/// Session description.

MEASURE TABLE (Has a foreign key for a one to many relationship: One session -> Many measures)
#region Enum

}
/// <summary>

public enum DataSource
{

}
#endregion Enum
#region Properties
/// <summary>

public int measure_id { get; set; } = 0;

Now i can connect to the database and insert an object (or list) to both table, i can also select some rows by using
var rows = context.Measures.Select(c => new { c.measure_id, c.raw, c.session_id, c.session.description }).Where(c => c.session_id == 666).ToList();
But when i try to get the all the column (the entire row) it fails in an exception "input string was not in the correct format", i've tried:
var rows = from t in context.Measures
where t.session_id == 666
select t;
var rows = (from t in context.Measures
where t.session_id == 666
select t).AsEnumerable<Measure_table>();
var rows = context.Measures.Where(a => a.session_id == 666).AsEnumerable<Measure_table>();
var rows = from a in context.Measures select a;
var rows = context.Measures;
But none of this works...for sure i'm missing something, but i cannot figure out what!
Thanks for any suggestion
I've also tried:
private void selectTest_2(string connet)
{
using (MySqlConnection connection = new MySqlConnection(connet))
{
try
{
connection.Open();
using (DatabaseContext context = new DatabaseContext(connection, false))
{
foreach (var row in context.Measures)
{
Console.WriteLine($"VALUE: {row.calib}" + Environment.NewLine);
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(2000);
}
// Save to the database
context.SaveChanges();
}
}
catch (Exception exc)
{
Console.WriteLine($"Exception: {exc}");
}
}
}
But result in the same error. Now i'm sure that i'm missing something important...
I've found a workaround...it seems that the enum properties are the problem, by using a string field everything works, for the moment i'm using this "solution" but how can i safely and properly use the enums?
/// <summary>
/// SubSystem: ZERO, FIRST, SECOND
/// </summary>
public SubSystem sub_system_enum { get; set; } = SubSystem.FIRST;
/// <summary>
/// String properties for database compatibility
/// </summary>
public string sub_system
{
get
{
return this.sub_system_enum.ToString();
}
set
{
this.sub_system_enum = Enum.TryParse<SubSystem>(value, true, out SubSystem val) ? val : default(SubSystem);
}
}
And onModelCreating override method:
// IGnore enums
measureTable.Ignore(e => e.sub_system_enum);
measureTable.Ignore(e => e.dataSource_enum);

But I got this error:

I was trying to send as string "/CosmosEntityName" as second parameter, but it doesnt work
I am using Cosmonaut
You need to use the request options. For example, if your collection is partitioned by CosmosEntityName;
await this.documentClient.DeleteDocumentAsync(productDocument._self, new RequestOptions { PartitionKey = new Microsoft.Azure.Documents.PartitionKey(productDocument.CosmosEntityName) });
EDIT:
Here's what you need with Cosmonaut SDK
You need to provide the partition key value not the partition key
definition when you delete. Your delete request should look like this,
assuming the id is your partition key.
var deleted = await this._cosmonautClient.DeleteDocumentAsync(this._databaseName, collectionName, message.Id, new RequestOptions { PartitionKey = new PartitionKey(message.Id) });
You need to pass the value of the partition key of the element you want to delete as second parameter, not the path and attribute name.
var result = await CosmosStoreHolder.Instance.CosmosStorePartner.RemoveByIdAsync(id, "<partition key value for that id>");
Since the attribute you have defined as PK is CosmosEntityName, you need that attribute's value for that document.

I am trying to find the most efficient way to display a set of nested comments from a database schema and into a c# object that i can convert to a serialised JSON object.
My Schema is as follows:
As you can see from the screenshot there is an Update which has a parent issue id (not relevant here) and a Comment. There is also a ParentUpdateID which enables the table to store nested replies for each reply and so on.
I have created a class within c# which i want to convert the results from my Entity Framework call;
/// <summary>
/// The resource view model.
/// </summary>
public class Comment
{
/// <summary>
/// Gets or sets the id.
/// </summary>
public Guid Id { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// Gets or sets the body.
/// </summary>
public string Body { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// Gets or sets the modified by.
/// </summary>
public string ModifiedBy { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// Gets or sets the modified date.
/// </summary>
public DateTime ModifiedDate { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// Gets or sets the created by.
/// </summary>
public string CreatedBy { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// Gets or sets the created date.
/// </summary>
public DateTime CreatedDate { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// Gets or sets the parent comment id.
/// </summary>
public Guid? ParentCommentId { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// Gets or sets the children.
/// </summary>
public List<Comment> Children { get; set; }
}
And here is how i am retrieving the List of Comments / Updates from the database.
List<ClientIssuesUpdate> updates = this.db.ClientIssuesUpdates.Where(i => i.IssueId == issueId).ToList();
Is there a clever way through either a loop or using lync that can order all of the comments showing most recent first, but then display in date order each comments children and so on. (e.g. All comments without a ParentUpdateId would be to level comments)
Any guidance would be helpful so i can learn for the future.
Many thanks
This should order them by date created.
Depending on how deep your comments children gets nested, you would have to add more loops.
List<ClientIssuesUpdate> updates = this.db.ClientIssuesUpdates.Where(i => i.IssueId == issueId).ToList().OrderByDescending(p => p.CreatedDate);
foreach (var comment in updates.Where(comment => comment.Children != null))
{
// order the children
comment.Children = new List<Comment>(comment.Children.OrderByDescending(c => c.CreatedDate));
}
*cant remember if you should use OrderBy<> or OrderByDescending<>
I've run into a issue when using JsonConvert.SerializeObject(addToBasketView) as it seems not to like tha list that i pass into it - until i passed in the list it was working fine - are you not able to pass a list?
Here is my code:
controller:
//We need a list of Automation scripts - this was in Apollo but now we need to pass it in teh message
var automationList = AutomationHelper(retailerId, productId);
var addToBasketView = new AddToBasketView
{
Url = retailerProduct.DeepLink,
Password = (password),
Username = (username),
RetailerProductJson = new RetailerProductJson(retailerProduct),
WidgetImpressionId = id,
Quantity = qty,
MessageId = messageId,
AutomationList = automationList
};
// now turn it into a string
var json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(addToBasketView);
Addtobasketview.cs:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
namespace WidgetData
{
/// <summary>
/// This is the view that we will give to the AddToBasketForm
/// </summary>
[Serializable]
public class AddToBasketView

public String Username { get; set; }

public String Password { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// The URl of the thing they want added to the site
/// </summary>
public String Url { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// The retailer product selected - from this I can get the retailer and the product.
/// </summary>
public RetailerProductJson RetailerProductJson { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// The widget impression id so that we can attach to the addTobaskets table for recording purposes
/// </summary>
public int WidgetImpressionId { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// set the quantity
/// </summary>
public int Quantity { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// The MessageId this is so we can identify it when waiting for a response
/// </summary>
public String MessageId { get; set; }
/// <summary>

public List<AutomationStepScript> AutomationList { get; set; }

// DO we have a retailer category?
if (retailerCategory != null)
{
// Yes, without a valid retailer category we cannot possibly find the automation
// Now here we have the RetailerCategory. The next question is Does this RetailerCategory HAVE an automation set up for it
if (retailerCategory.AutomationId != null)
{
// Yes, we have an automation. So lets get all of the Scripts for all of the steps for this automation
// Get All scripts for all steps for this automation.
automationStepScripts = automationStepScriptRepository.GetAllAutomationStepScriptsForAutomation((int)retailerCategory.AutomationId).ToList();
}
}
return automationStepScripts;
}
I am serializinf it as it bacomes teh body of a message which i am using in SQS which i then use later.
Please let me know if you need any more information.
Thanks.
