CRM Dynamics: how to get viewname in record list using javascript?

Question

I'm searching to get the name of the current view of a record list. Is there a way to do it?

Xrm.Page.data.entity.getEntityName() See the Client Side API Documentation. msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg328255.aspx — IamSilviu

Xrm.Page.data is not available in a record list (note that by "record list" I don't mean a subgrid in an entity form) — Dremor

You can use the below script to get the view name from ribbon:

var viewName = '';
if (crmGrid && crmGrid.control) {
viewName = crmGrid.control.get_viewTitle();
}

Reference

Update:

I don't see a supported way to do it. But there are some unsupported solution (may be only way, I haven't tested it personally)

function HideButtonBasedOnViewSelected (selectedCtrl) {             
        var query = selectedCtrl.get_viewTitle();
        if (query == 'Your View Name') {
            return false;
        }
        else
            return true;
    }

Add Crm parameter, and set parameter value as SelectedControl
To get selected view name need to use some unsupported JavaScript.

crmGrid is undefined.

@Dremor based on your crm version you may need to pass primarycontrol as crm parameter in ribbon & try to consume control from formcontext

tried primaryControl earlier, result in a null object.
