Declaring a Template

To customize the toolbar, declare an <ng-template> and decorate it with the kendoSchedulerToolbarTemplate directive.

<kendo-scheduler>
    <ng-template kendoSchedulerToolbarTemplate>
        <!-- Toolbar template content -->
    </ng-template>

    ...
</kendo-scheduler>

Setting the Template Context

The toolbar template context includes the following variables:

  • dateRange—The current DateRange of the view.
  • selectedDate—The currently selected date.
  • selectedView—The currently selected SchedulerView view descriptor.
  • views—An array of SchedulerView objects which describes the currently declared views.

You can bind the template variables to local variables by using the let- syntax.

<kendo-scheduler>
    <ng-template kendoSchedulerToolbarTemplate
                 let-selectedDate="selectedDate">
        {{ selectedDate | date }}
    </ng-template>

    ...
</kendo-scheduler>

Using the Toolbar Service

The toolbar template can emit actions to the Scheduler by using the provided ToolbarService. ToolbarService provides the single navigate method which accepts a predefined NavigationAction type.

export class MyNavigationComponent {
    constructor(public toolbarService: ToolbarService) { }

    public next(): void {
        this.toolbarService.navigate({
            type: 'next'
        });
    }
}
