Kendo UI how to read data in the model passing from Spring MVC Controller?

Question

The data in Controller:

model.addAttribute("colors", colorList);

In the jsp file, how to get the "colors" in the Kendo UI scripts?

    $("#color").kendoDropDownList({
        dataTextField: "text",
        dataValueField: "value",
        dataSource: **${colors}**,
        index: 0,
        change: onChange
    });

Please give suggestions without "kendo-jsp style"(kendo:dataSource) and "transport-read" ways, thanks a lot!

Answer 1

Needless to answer this silly question: convert the colorList to json in Controller ...

Answer 2

hope this can help you. happy coding bro.

var dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
        data: $.parseJSON('${colors}') 
    });
