What is the proper way to edit items in a listview when using Kendo UI Mobile & MVVM?
I don't get the expected results when using the following:
HTML
<div id="itemsView"
data-role="view"
data-model="vm">
<ul data-role="listview" data-bind="source: items"
data-template="itemsTemplate">
</ul>
<script id="itemsTemplate" type="text/x-kendo-template">
<li>
#=Name#
</li>
</script>
<input type="text" data-bind="value: newValue" />
<button data-role="button" data-bind="click: update">update</button>
</div>
JavaScript
var vm = kendo.observable({
items: [{
Name: "Item1"}],
newValue: '',
update: function(e) {
var item = this.get("items")[0];
item.set("Name", this.get("newValue"));
//adding the follwoing line makes it work as expected
kendo.bind($('#itemsView'), vm);
}
});
kendoApp = new kendo.mobile.Application(document.body, {
transition: "slide"});
I expect the listview to reflect the change to the Name property of that item. Instead, a new item is added to the listview. Examining the array reveals that there is no additional item, and that the change was made. (re)Binding the view to the view-model updates the list to reflect the change. Re-Binding after a change like this doesn't seem to make any sense.
