DataBind WooCommerce Data to the DevExpress Data Grid
The ADO.NET Provider for WooCommerce by CData incorporates conventional ADO.NET data access components compatible with third-party controls. You can adhere to the standard ADO.NET data binding procedures to establish two-way access to real-time data through UI controls. This article will demonstrate the utilization of CData components for data binding with DevExpress UI Controls (Windows Forms and Web controls), specifically binding to a chart that visualizes live data.
WooCommerce supports the following authentication methods: one-legged OAuth1.0 Authentication and standard OAuth2.0 Authentication.
Connecting using one-legged OAuth 1.0 Authentication
Specify the following properties (NOTE: the below credentials are generated from WooCommerce settings page and should not be confused with the credentials generated by using WordPress OAuth2.0 plugin):
- ConsumerKey
- ConsumerSecret
Connecting using WordPress OAuth 2.0 Authentication
After having configured the [ plugin, you may connect to WooCommerce by providing the following connection properties:
]
- OAuthClientId
- OAuthClientSecret
- CallbackURL
- InitiateOAuth - Set this to either GETANDREFRESH or REFRESH
In either case, you will need to set the Url property to the URL of the WooCommerce instance.
The code below shows how to populate a DevExpress chart with WooCommerce data. The WooCommerceDataAdapter binds to the Series property of the chart control. The Diagram property of the control defines the x- and y-axes as the column names.
using (WooCommerceConnection connection = new WooCommerceConnection(
"Url=https://example.com/; ConsumerKey=ck_ec52c76185c088ecaa3145287c8acba55a6f59ad; ConsumerSecret=cs_9fde14bf57126156701a7563fc87575713c355e5; InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH")) {
WooCommerceDataAdapter dataAdapter = new WooCommerceDataAdapter(
"SELECT ParentId, Total FROM Orders WHERE ParentId = '3'", connection);
DataTable table = new DataTable();
dataAdapter.Fill(table);
DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series series = new DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series();
chartControl1.Series.Add(series);
series.DataSource = table;
series.ValueDataMembers.AddRange(new string[] { "Total" });
series.ArgumentScaleType = DevExpress.XtraCharts.ScaleType.Qualitative;
series.ArgumentDataMember = "ParentId";
series.ValueScaleType = DevExpress.XtraCharts.ScaleType.Numerical;
chartControl1.Legend.Visibility = DevExpress.Utils.DefaultBoolean.False;
((DevExpress.XtraCharts.SideBySideBarSeriesView)series.View).ColorEach = true;
}

The code below shows how to populate a DevExpress Web control with WooCommerce data. The WooCommerceDataAdapter binds to the Series property of the chart; the Diagram property defines the x- and y-axes as the column names.
using DevExpress.XtraCharts;
using (WooCommerceConnection connection = new WooCommerceConnection(
"Url=https://example.com/; ConsumerKey=ck_ec52c76185c088ecaa3145287c8acba55a6f59ad; ConsumerSecret=cs_9fde14bf57126156701a7563fc87575713c355e5; InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH"))
{
WooCommerceDataAdapter WooCommerceDataAdapter1 = new WooCommerceDataAdapter("SELECT ParentId, Total FROM Orders WHERE ParentId = '3'", connection);
DataTable table = new DataTable();
WooCommerceDataAdapter1.Fill(table);
DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series series = new Series("Series1", ViewType.Bar);
WebChartControl1.Series.Add(series);
series.DataSource = table;
series.ValueDataMembers.AddRange(new string[] { "Total" });
series.ArgumentScaleType = ScaleType.Qualitative;
series.ArgumentDataMember = "ParentId";
series.ValueScaleType = ScaleType.Numerical;
((DevExpress.XtraCharts.SideBySideBarSeriesView)series.View).ColorEach = true;
}
