Specifying default sort in grid

问题

Is it possible to specify a default sort when using the knockout-kendo binding to bind the Telerik Kendo grid?

I am binding the grid like this:

kendoGrid: { data: grid.Rows, sortable: {allowUnsort: false,mode:'single'}, columns: grid.Columns} 

However, I have not found a way to specify the default sort. Standard Kendo has a sort:{field:"Col1",dir:"asc"} element that can be specified on the data source, but it's unclear how this can be applied to the kendoGrid binding

Default Kendo sort element: http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/framework/datasource#sort-array--objectdefault

The comments from the following answer gave me a clue:

What is the difference between the data and dataSource in knockout-kendo grid widget?

It seems like you can use data and dataSource in tandem if you want to specify this behavior:

kendoGrid: {dataSource:{sort:{field:'Col1',dir:'asc'}}, data: grid.Rows, sortable: {allowUnsort: false,mode:'single'}, columns: grid.Columns}

Check out the following post in the kendo forums.

.DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
        .Ajax()
        .Sort(sort => sort.Add("City").Ascending()) // <-- initial sort expression
        .Read(read => read.Action("Index", "Home"))
    )
