Button

To trigger an operation.

When To Use#

A button means an operation (or a series of operations). Clicking a button will trigger corresponding business logic.

Examples

Type

There are primary button, default button, dashed button and danger button in antd.

import { Button } from 'antd';

ReactDOM.render(
  <div>
    <Button type="primary">Primary</Button>
    <Button>Default</Button>
    <Button type="dashed">Dashed</Button>
    <Button type="danger">Danger</Button>
  </div>,
  mountNode
);

LargeDefaultSmall

Size

Ant Design supports a default button size as well as a large and small size.

If a large or small button is desired, set the size property to either large or small respectively. Omit the size property for a button with the default size.

import { Button, Radio, Icon } from 'antd';

class ButtonSize extends React.Component {
  state = {
    size: 'large',
  };

  handleSizeChange = (e) => {
    this.setState({ size: e.target.value });
  }

  render() {
    const size = this.state.size;
    return (
      <div>
        <Radio.Group value={size} onChange={this.handleSizeChange}>
          <Radio.Button value="large">Large</Radio.Button>
          <Radio.Button value="default">Default</Radio.Button>
          <Radio.Button value="small">Small</Radio.Button>
        </Radio.Group>
        <br /><br />
        <Button type="primary" size={size}>Primary</Button>
        <Button size={size}>Normal</Button>
        <Button type="dashed" size={size}>Dashed</Button>
        <Button type="danger" size={size}>Danger</Button>
        <br />
        <Button type="primary" shape="circle" icon="download" size={size} />
        <Button type="primary" shape="round" icon="download" size={size}>Download</Button>
        <Button type="primary" icon="download" size={size}>Download</Button>
        <br />
        <Button.Group size={size}>
          <Button type="primary">
            <Icon type="left" />Backward
          </Button>
          <Button type="primary">
            Forward<Icon type="right" />
          </Button>
        </Button.Group>
      </div>
    );
  }
}

ReactDOM.render(<ButtonSize />, mountNode);

A loading indicator can be added to a button by setting the loading property on the Button.

import { Button } from 'antd';

class App extends React.Component {
  state = {
    loading: false,
    iconLoading: false,
  }

  enterLoading = () => {
    this.setState({ loading: true });
  }

  enterIconLoading = () => {
    this.setState({ iconLoading: true });
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <span>
        <Button type="primary" loading>
          Loading
        </Button>
        <Button type="primary" size="small" loading>
          Loading
        </Button>
        <br />
        <Button type="primary" loading={this.state.loading} onClick={this.enterLoading}>
          Click me!
        </Button>
        <Button type="primary" icon="poweroff" loading={this.state.iconLoading} onClick={this.enterIconLoading}>
          Click me!
        </Button>
        <br />
        <Button shape="circle" loading />
        <Button type="primary" shape="circle" loading />
      </span>
    );
  }
}

ReactDOM.render(<App />, mountNode);

With Icon

Button Group

Buttons can be grouped by placing multiple Button components into a Button.Group.

The size can be set to large, small or left unset resulting in a default size.

import { Button, Icon } from 'antd';

const ButtonGroup = Button.Group;

ReactDOM.render(
  <div>
    <h4>Basic</h4>
    <ButtonGroup>
      <Button>Cancel</Button>
      <Button>OK</Button>
    </ButtonGroup>
    <ButtonGroup>
      <Button disabled>L</Button>
      <Button disabled>M</Button>
      <Button disabled>R</Button>
    </ButtonGroup>
    <ButtonGroup>
      <Button>L</Button>
      <Button>M</Button>
      <Button>R</Button>
    </ButtonGroup>

    <h4>With Icon</h4>
    <ButtonGroup>
      <Button type="primary">
        <Icon type="left" />Go back
      </Button>
      <Button type="primary">
        Go forward<Icon type="right" />
      </Button>
    </ButtonGroup>
    <ButtonGroup>
      <Button type="primary" icon="cloud" />
      <Button type="primary" icon="cloud-download" />
    </ButtonGroup>
  </div>,
  mountNode
);

block Button

block property will make the button fit to its parent width.

import { Button } from 'antd';

ReactDOM.render(
  <div>
    <Button type="primary" block>Primary</Button>
    <Button block>Default</Button>
    <Button type="dashed" block>Dashed</Button>
    <Button type="danger" block>danger</Button>
  </div>,
  mountNode
);

Icon

Button components can contain an Icon. This is done by setting the icon property or placing an Icon component within the Button

If you want specific control over the positioning and placement of the Icon, then that should be done by placing the Icon component within the Button rather than using the icon property.

import { Button } from 'antd';

ReactDOM.render(
  <div>
    <Button type="primary" shape="circle" icon="search" />
    <Button type="primary" icon="search">Search</Button>
    <Button shape="circle" icon="search" />
    <Button icon="search">Search</Button>
    <br />
    <Button shape="circle" icon="search" />
    <Button icon="search">Search</Button>
    <Button type="dashed" shape="circle" icon="search" />
    <Button type="dashed" icon="search">Search</Button>
  </div>,
  mountNode
);

Disabled

To mark a button as disabled, add the disabled property to the Button.

import { Button } from 'antd';

ReactDOM.render(
  <div>
    <Button type="primary">Primary</Button>
    <Button type="primary" disabled>Primary(disabled)</Button>
    <br />
    <Button>Default</Button>
    <Button disabled>Default(disabled)</Button>
    <br />
    <Button type="dashed">Dashed</Button>
    <Button type="dashed" disabled>Dashed(disabled)</Button>
    <div style={{ padding: '8px 8px 0 8px', background: 'rgb(190, 200, 200)' }}>
      <Button ghost>Ghost</Button>
      <Button ghost disabled>Ghost(disabled)</Button>
    </div>
  </div>,
  mountNode
);

Multiple Buttons

If you need several buttons, we recommend that you use 1 primary button + n secondary buttons, and if there are more than three operations, you can group some of them into Dropdown.Button.

import {
  Button, Menu, Dropdown, Icon,
} from 'antd';

function handleMenuClick(e) {
  console.log('click', e);
}

const menu = (
  <Menu onClick={handleMenuClick}>
    <Menu.Item key="1">1st item</Menu.Item>
    <Menu.Item key="2">2nd item</Menu.Item>
    <Menu.Item key="3">3rd item</Menu.Item>
  </Menu>
);

ReactDOM.render(
  <div>
    <Button type="primary">primary</Button>
    <Button>secondary</Button>
    <Dropdown overlay={menu}>
      <Button>
        Actions <Icon type="down" />
      </Button>
    </Dropdown>
  </div>,
  mountNode
);

Ghost Button

ghost property will make button's background transparent, it is common used in colored background.

import { Button } from 'antd';

ReactDOM.render(
  <div style={{ background: 'rgb(190, 200, 200)', padding: '26px 16px 16px' }}>
    <Button type="primary" ghost>Primary</Button>
    <Button ghost>Default</Button>
    <Button type="dashed" ghost>Dashed</Button>
    <Button type="danger" ghost>danger</Button>
  </div>,
  mountNode
);
