How to associate a chart and a table/datagrid with the same data source/collection?

2751631

I am working on creating a bound set of datagrid/table with a chart so that when the table gets updated, it reflects in the chart. Since there isn't yet a concept of an editable table yet, I will be using the CRUD example to update a table cell. How can I achieve one way binding between the table and the chart? I went through the discussion on "Associated Views: Cross Component Interactivity for Data Visualizations" and it gives me a hint to push the datasource to the linked components one by one, the way its supported for  each component. But want to know the proper and easier way of achieving this.

Thanks

Hi Monika,

I'd recommend using a computed observable to generate the data to pass to each component. The computed observables would depend on whatever is the source of truth for your data, and they would be updated along with the underlying data, triggering component updates. We try to keep the APIs as similar as possible between components, but the different shapes of data between components mean that we can't just take the same data structures across everything. We'll add a demo or blog post soon to make this easier going forward.

Thanks,

Hugh
