ASP.NET Core retrieving datatable params

plazav

Hi!
I am trying this example: Using jQuery DataTables Grid With ASP.NET CORE MVC
But I can't get any param with construction like:

 var length = Request.Form["length"].FirstOrDefault();  

I need them as I want to make paging.

Are you telling DataTables' ajax option to POST the data? See this example for how to do that.

Yes, sure. Here is my client side code:

 $('#texts-dataTable').DataTable({
            "serverSide": true,
            "ajax": {
                "type": "POST",
                "datatype": "json",
                headers: { 'RequestVerificationToken': gettoken() },
                "url": '@Html.Raw(Url.Action("DataHandler", "Home", 
                            new { someparam = 1 }))',
                'data': function (data) {
                    data = JSON.stringify(data);
                    data.iStart = 10;
                    return data;
                }
            },
            "processing": true,
            "paging": true,
            "order": [[1, "desc"]]
        });

You'd probably need to contact the author of that post or post in a C# forum in that case. On the client-side it looks like you are doing what I would expect. I'm not sure why that isn't working.

Seems the solution was to remove:

data = JSON.stringify(data);

and

"datatype": "json",
