$$('grid').add() using a variable

I have made a grid which contains two columns ‘No’ and ‘Name’.
Now one way to add is

$$(‘grid’).add({No:“1”,Name:“Teddy”});

But if I go this way
var addQuery="{No:“1”,Name:“Teddy”}";
$$(‘grid’).add(addQuery);

Then it doesn’t work. I have to use addQuery variable. So then how should I proceed ?
Reply.
Thank you.

It must be

  var addQuery={No:"1",Name:"Teddy"};

without extra quotes.

Thanks.
But there is a some problem now. Actually I was building that string dynamically using a loop.
So I did

var addQuery="{"+colHeader+":"+"""+value+""";
for loop
{
…
}
addQuery=addQuery+"}";

Then I used
$$(‘grid’).add(addQuery);
But I didn’t succeed.

…

Then I tried
var addQuery=colHeader+":"+"""+value+""";
for loop{…}

var newQuery={addQuery};…(Gives Error on this line)
$$(‘grid’).add(newQuery);
But it gives error on the above shown line.

How can I proceed ?
Please reply.
Thank you.

If you want to load from string you can use

var new_data_as_string= "[{ ... some data ... }]"; $$('grid').parse(new_data_as_string);
but object creation is more correct way

var addQuery={ colHeader: value }; for loop { ....... addQuery[some] = some_value; } $$('grid').add(addQuery);

Ya its working. Thank you. But I did not understand the working.
What is the need and meaning of the sentence mentioned below ?
var addQuery={ colHeader: value };
Thanks once again

var addQuery={ colHeader: value };
This line create new data object, basically instead of creating the string with object description, you can create object directly and use “add” command to load it in the component
