Hello Friends,

Once again a new finding I wanted to share with you related to JSLink in SharePoint 2013.

Scenario: I am displaying some data from list using a XSLTListView web part in SharePoint 2013 page. I have selected JSLink option to give a matching UI to that data. Data is getting rendered properly with new UI using my custom JSLink file but I wanted to call a jQuery function after loading of all the rows gets completed so that my jQuery call will not fail and will get the rendered rows properly.

Solution: We need to provide a handler on OnPostRender event or we can call the function directly as shown in following code, though no huge difference between those two.

Option 1
  1. (function ()
  2. {
  3. var overrideCtx = {};
  4. overrideCtx.Templates = {};
  5. overrideCtx.Templates.Header = "";
  6. overrideCtx.Templates.Footer = "";
  7. overrideCtx.Templates.Item = CustomDemoItem;
  8. overrideCtx.OnPostRender = [];
  9. overrideCtx.OnPostRender.push(function()
  10. {
  11. //call your ready function here
  12. });
  13. SPClientTemplates.TemplateManager.RegisterTemplateOverrides(overrideCtx);
  14. })();
Option 2
  1. (function ()
  2. {
  3. var overrideCtx = {};
  4. overrideCtx.Templates = {};
  5. overrideCtx.Templates.Header = "";
  6. overrideCtx.Templates.Footer = "";
  7. overrideCtx.Templates.Item = CustomDemoItem;
  8. overrideCtx.OnPostRender = [];
  9. overrideCtx.OnPostRender.push(function(){OnPostRenderFunc(); });
  10. SPClientTemplates.TemplateManager.RegisterTemplateOverrides(overrideCtx);
  11. })();
  13. function OnPostRenderFunc(renderCtx) {
  14. //call your ready function here
  15. }
Hope this will help some of the developer looking for same kind of answer.
Happy coding…
