Saving data to a remote location using a custom script

[atkingtornado]

I am trying to save data to a remote location using paramquery, I am reading the JSON file with a python script and then passing that data to paramquery. The location on the webserver where the code is located is not writable from the web, hence the need for a custom function. IS there a way to get the data from the grid and then send it back out to the remote location?

Thanks!

The whole data of the grid i.e., dataModel.data (which is simply an array of row objects) can be sent to remote server with $.ajax POST.

Thank you for your reply!

When I try to print out dataModel.data to the console... for some reason It's not retrieving the data as it should. Here's my code:

$(document).ready(function(){
      
   var colM = [{ title: "DQPR", width: 100, dataType: "string", dataIndx: "dqpr" },
                  { title: "Status", width: 200, dataType: "string", dataIndx: "status" },
                  { title: "First Name", width: 200, dataType: "string", dataIndx: "firstName" },
                  { title: "Last Name", width: 200, dataType: "string", dataIndx: "lastName" }                                 
            ];
   

   var dataModel = {
       location: "remote",
      sorting: "local",
      paging: "local",
      dataType: "JSON",
      method: "GET",
      sortIndx: "dqpr",
      sortDir: "up",
      getUrl: function () {
         return{ url: "cgi-bin/get_json.py"}
      },
      getData: function (dataJSON) {
         var data = dataJSON.data;
         return { data: dataJSON.data };
      }
   };
   
   var newObj = {
      flexHeight: true,
      flexWidth: true,
      dataModel: dataModel,
      bottomVisible: true,
      colModel: colM,
      selectionModel: { mode: 'single' },
      editable: false,
      scrollModel: { horizontal: false },
      title: "DQPR Data",
      columnBorders: true
   };
   var $grid = $("#grid_json").pqGrid(newObj);
   console.log(JSON.stringify(dataModel.data));

});
