asp.net mvc - How to load kendo observable data array from MVC controller? -

i have following kendo observable object:

var observable = kendo.observable({     people: [         { name: "john doe" },         { name: "jane doe" },         { name: "jimmy doe" }     ],     products: [         { name: "table" },         { name: "chair" },         { name: "tomato" }     ],     animals: [         { name: "dog" },         { name: "cat" },         { name: "monkey" }     ] }); 

can make inner collections load json data directly seperate controllers?

yes. need create controller returns json result. make ajax call controllers route , stuff response variable. refer in observable. might on front end:

$.ajax("mysite/getstuff").done(     function(data){        var observable = kendo.observable(data);     }); 

in case getstuff method on controller needs return json object containing of properties , arrays need this:

{     people: [array of people],     products: [array of products],     animals: [array pf animals] //etc }
