Data Source Object

A dataSource object contains the information about the data source of the report.

Properties

Name	Type	Description
filename	String	optional The URL to JSON or CSV file. Also can be the URL to the server-side script generating the data.
fieldSeparator	String	optional Specific field delimiter for CSV data. By default, WebDataRocks can parse comma-separated values or semicolon-separated values. For all other cases, fieldSeparator should be specified.
data	String	optional Property to specify JSON data. WebDataRocks supports a certain kind of JSON data – array of objects, where each object is an unordered collection of KEY/VALUE pairs.

Example

Connect to a CSV file in WebDataRocks reporting tool:

var pivot = new WebDataRocks({
  container: "#wdr-component",
  toolbar: true,
  height: 395,
  report: {
    dataSource: {
      filename: "https://cdn.webdatarocks.com/data/data.csv"
    }
  }
});
