Hello,
I am totally new to Angular and I’m currently working on handsontable. Is there a way to get all the changes in row of handsontable before passing the request to the backend? Currently, the changes are being passed to the backend every cell update.
Hi @eabardies
You can get all the changes as they are made within be beforeChange / afterChange hooks. But, if you prefer to get the new data once - you can call the getData() method.
Thank you for your reply. Do you mind making a demo?
The goal is to get all the changes of a row and when the cursor goes out of that changed row, then the call to update must be called.
Right now, what’s happening is if a cell is changed and the cursor moved to another cell (not another row), the call to update is always called.
Thank you.
We have a hook called beforeOnCellMouseOut and afterOnCellMouseOut but they run for each cell. I think that you could save the index of the previously existed row and the new one. However, I do not have a demo for that.
When it comes to gathering the data maybe, it will be easier for you to get the data of a row within the afterChange hook https://jsfiddle.net/g4mh72bv/? I believe that a user can change cells within one row but they also can move from one row to another and come back to the same row once again.
This is really helpful, thank you so much for this! I really appreciate it.
