Creating a GroupButton in TypeScript

You can create a TypeScript application with the help of the given https://help.syncfusion.com/js/typescript.In application, Within an index.html file add the scripts references in the order mentioned in the above link.

This can be created from an input element with the HTML id attribute and pre-defined options set to it.

{% highlight html %}

        <div class="row">
            <div class="cols-sample-area">
                <div class="control">
                    <label>Appointment View</label>
                    <div class="element">
                        <div id="GroupButton"></div>
                    </div>
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>

{% endhighlight %}

Create app.ts file and past the below content

{% highlight javascript %}

/// <reference path="tsfiles/jquery.d.ts" />
/// <reference path="tsfiles/ej.web.all.d.ts" />

module GroupButtonComponent {


$(function () {
    new ej.GroupButton($("#GroupButton"), {

        dataSource: [

            { text: "Day", contentType: "textonly" },

            { text: "Week", contentType: "textonly" },

            { text: "Work Week", contentType: "textonly" },

            { text: "Month", contentType: "textonly", selected: "selected" },

            { text: "Agenda", contentType: "textonly" }]

    }
    );
});
    }

{% endhighlight %}
