Hi!
I am using Kendo diagram on the client and we've managed to do it really easy.
But we had a request for generating the diagram image to include it in reports generated on the server.
Tried to search the API docs and forums for a solution but couldn't find any.
The current approach we're taking is to load kendo js lib into nodejs to generate the graph and save it. Our problem with this approach is that Kendo depends on jQuery and we can't seem to load it in a way that Kendo would know how to use.
Do you have any suggestion on our approach or a different approach on which we can achieve our result?

We have a project available with inkscape in this repository using the Kendo UI Chart and the same approach should be applicable for the Kendo UI Diagram:

Diagram methods that can be used:
https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/dataviz/ui/diagram/methods/exportsvg
https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/dataviz/ui/diagram/methods/exportpdf
https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/dataviz/ui/diagram/methods/saveaspdf
Essentially what it does is posting the generated SVG or PDF to the server, however the diagram should still be generated client-side. For this, you will need to have jQuery in the window scope.
Let me know in case you need further assistance.
Kind Regards,

This is the limitation that we've ran into as well. We have no client to render the chart on. I was hoping someone else ran into the same issue :)
