from moving from 3.x to 4.x set data source not working

[Wingie]

if (!$scope.gridOptions.datasource) { // must attach datasource only once
        $scope.gridOptions.datasource = $scope.dataSource;
        console.log($scope.gridOptions)
        $scope.gridOptions.api.onNewDatasource();
      }

i'm getting an error

build.min.js:25996 TypeError: Cannot read property 'onNewDatasource' of undefined
    at init_datasource (build.min.js:131911)
    at new SearchResultProjectsCtrl (build.min.js:131633)
    at Object.invoke (build.min.js:17364)
    at extend.instance (build.min.js:22615)

to note that i did not need the $scope.gridOptions.api.onNewDatasource(); when i was on 3.0.3
just updated now and went through documentation and found this change.
without the .api.onNewDatasource(); the issue was that nothing was displayed on the screen

onNewDatasource() is not used in the new version. please check the docs.

In the Datasource section of the docs it says this is possible way to add datasource.

// way 1 - set the the datasource using the API
gridOptions.api.setDatasource(myDataSource);

// way 2 - set the the datasource directly and inform the grid a new datasource is there
gridOptions.datasource = myNewDatasource;
gridOptions.api.onNewDatasource();

sorry for this. docs are out of date. i've fixed and they will be updated with the next release.

Could you please share the solution with us?

[ceolter]

use:

// way 1 - set the the datasource using the API
gridOptions.api.setDatasource(myDataSource);
