items.data Function

Adds a custom data callback to be added to the context of menu item - useful to attach context dynamically.

Example

<button id="splitButton">Command</button>
<script>

    var commands = {
        "command_one": function () {
            alert("Command One Executed!")
        },
        "command_two": function () {
            alert("Command Two Executed!")
        },
        "default_command": function () {
            alert("Default Executed!")
        }
    }

    function getContext(item) {
        return {
            command: commands[item.id]
        }
    }

    var splitButton = $("#splitButton").kendoSplitButton({
        items: [
            { id: "command_one", text: "Command 1", data: getContext},
            { id: "command_two", text: "Command 2", data: getContext}
        ],
        click: function(ev) {
            if (ev.target.data("command")) {
                ev.target.data("command")();
            } else {
                commands["default_command"]();
            }
        }
    }).data("kendoSplitButton");
</script>
