AngularJS DataSource

[Rainer Goos]

I'm trying to simply bind a data source to a Kendo UI Menu, but somehow I can't get it to work. What am I doing wrong here?

Dojo example: http://dojo.telerik.com/idIbe/2

Hello Rainer,

You are not including the Kendo UI directives correctly, please check the following working example:

Hello Kiril,

Thank you for your answer. You were right, the directives were not loaded. I was used not to worry about them as we load them in our base module. 

The problem however is that we need a way of binding/setting/updating the data source in the "init" method. That's where we process data received via services from the server. Part of the items which need to be displayed are dynamically generated on the server. Is there a way of manipulating the data source in the "init" method?

Hello Rainer,

The Kendo UI Menu's dataSource is not the Kendo UI dataSource that supports remote data operations and all the different events. The dataSource of the Kendo UI Menu is a simple array property. If you want to detect when the widget is initialized you can use the Angular kendoWidgetCreated event, as shown here:
