This is a library that implements the interop between Blazor and Developer Express DevExtreme library.
I am tempted to discontinue the project since DevExpress announced official Blazor support. Keeping this alternative doesn't make much sense anymore, even more so because it is technically very challenging. Thanks for all the comments and contribution, it has been a fun ride.
Per version 0.2 initialization with options is implemented., no instance functions at this time.
Instance and static methods implemented in 0.4.
Support for server side has been added in 0.6.1.
Callbacks are implemented in a simple way (no arguments except for jQuery identifier are passed).
To use callbacks, set [onEVENTNAME]Enabled property to true in options. Then bind to static event of the target class and compare the passed identifier to understand which instance fired the event. Don't forget to unsubscribe to events (within Dispose method).
When there is a known string restriction for a certain property, a static class with const string restrictions is created. Class name consists of [ClassName][PropertyName].
For example:
public partial class AnimationConfig
{
public string direction { get; set; }
}
public static class AnimationConfigDirection
{
public const string Bottom = "bottom";
public const string Left = "left";
public const string Right = "right";
public const string Top = "top";
}Some methods have conflicting names with properties and have Ex appended (i.e. Values). Also some method overloads are duplicates when argument types are object types (type mismatch from typescript).
Javascript methods are postfixed with ordinal method number to avoid overloading problems.
Built against Blazor 0.4.

<h1>Hello, DevExtreme within Blazor!</h1>

{
ClickedCount++;
StateHasChanged();
UiInterop.Notify($"Clicked {ClickedCount}!", "info", 5000); // displays a notification using a static method
}
string ButtonText => $"Was clicked {ClickedCount} times";
}Notes:
- demonstrates how to create a dxButton, enabled and bind it's onClick event and change its text
- you have to explicitly enabled events with [EVENTNAME]Enabled flag (i.e. OnClickEnabled="true")
And init a dxButton with code like this.
@using BlazorDevExtreme
@implements IDisposable
@page "/"
<h1>Hello, world!</h1>
<div id="@ButtonId" ref="target"></div>
<button onclick="@InitDevExtreme">Init DevExtreme</button>
<div></div>
<label>Clicked count:</label>
<div>@ClickedCount</div>
@functions {
ElementRef target;
public const string ButtonId = "buttonContainer";
public int ClickedCount { get; set; } = 0;
public void InitDevExtreme()
{
// Init methods are async, but here is no need to await for
DxButton.Init(target, new DevExpress.Ui.DxButtonOptions { text = "DevExtreme Button", onClickEnabled = true });
}
protected override void OnInit()
{
DxButton.Click += DxButton_Click;
}
void DxButton_Click(object sender, JQueryEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Identifier == $"#{ButtonId}")
{
ClickedCount++;
StateHasChanged();
}
}
public void Dispose()
{
DxButton.Click -= DxButton_Click;
}
}Note:
- For now you have to click on the Init DevExtreme button to init the dxButton. That's because it is hard to understand when both jQuery and Blazor libraries are loaded.
