Set a default sort column in SlickGrid

Question

I'm using SlickGrid with DataView and I'm trying to set a default sort column on my table. Is there a way to trigger the sort or set an option so the column is sorted on load?

Answer 1

On the latest version you could do this:

grid.setSortColumn("myColId",true); //columnId, ascending

You can also set multiple with setSortColumn*s*

Answer 2

See my solution here. This applies sort on a column initially without using Dataview.

Calling sort on slickgrid

I think it does what you want.

Btw since you are using Dataview. You can also give this a try. But I have not personally tried this.

    dataview.reSort()
