Installation

To initialize the Buttons, either:

Initializing with Webpack

  1. Install Kendo UI and add a theme.

    npm install --save @progress/kendo-ui
npm install --save @progress/kendo-theme-default

  2. Install the Kendo UI Buttons package for Vue.

    npm install --save @progress/kendo-buttons-vue-wrapper

    The package also exports the following wrappers for individual components:

    • Button
    • ButtonGroup
    • ToolBar

  3. Import the Kendo UI packages to the App component. If you use the Kendo UI components more than once in your application, add all Kendo UI-related files to the main.js file. If you use the Kendo UI components once in your application, add the Kendo UI-related files the component where they will be referred.

    import '@progress/kendo-ui'
import '@progress/kendo-theme-default/dist/all.css'

import { Button,
        ButtonGroup,
        ButtonGroupButton,
        ToolBar,
        ToolBarItem,
        ButtonsInstaller } from '@progress/kendo-buttons-vue-wrapper'

Vue.use(ButtonsInstaller)

new Vue({
   el: '#app',
   components: {
       Button,
       ButtonGroup,
       ButtonGroupButton,
       ToolBar,
       ToolBarItem
   }
})
