Call Scheduler events from EventTemplate

[Peter]

I'm using an EventTemplate to display in the agenda view.  I'd like to add a button in the template that will open the Edit window.  I've searched through the forums, but have not been able to find an example.  Can you provide an example showing how to do this?

Thanks,
-Pete

Hello Peter,

In order to achieve this you will need to use the Scheduler API's editEvent passing the event instance. For example:

$("#scheduler").on("click", ".k-task .k-edit", function(e) {
  e.preventDefault();

  var uid = $(this).closest(".k-task").data("uid"); // get the uid of the Event from the item's data attribute
  var event = scheduler.occurrenceByUid(uid); // retrieve the event instance via the Scheduler
  scheduler.editEvent(event);
});

Here you can find a sample of such approach.
