call a function in success of datatable ajax call

Question

Is that possible to invoke a javascript function in success of datatable ajax call. Here is the code am trying to use,

var oTable = $(\'#app-config\').dataTa         


        

Answer 1

The best way I have found is to use the initComplete method as it fires after the data has been retrieved and renders the table. NOTE this only fires once though.

$("#tableOfData").DataTable({
        "pageLength": 50,
        "ajax":{
            url: someurl,
            dataType : "json",
            type: "post",
            "data": {data to be sent}
        },
        "initComplete":function( settings, json){
            console.log(json);
            // call your function here
        }
    });
