data-bind not working in kendo.template

I'm having troubles trying to implement a custom remove button in my Kendo Grid. This is the code I have:

View:

<div id="gridAdditionalLines">

Javascript:

var dataSourceGrid = new kendo.data.DataSource({
            data: MyData,   --> It's a type of Kendo.Observable
            schema: {
                model: {
                    Id: "Id",
                    fields: {
                        Id: { editable: false, nullable: true },
                        Column1: { editable: false, nullable: true },
                        Description: { validation: { required: true} },
                        Value: { validation: { required: true} }
                    }
                }
            }
        });

        $("#MyGrid").kendoGrid({
            dataSource: dataSourceGrid,
            editable: true,
            navigatable: true,
            toolbar: ["create"],
            columns: [
                        { field: "Description" },
                        { field: "Value" },
                        { command: [{name: "destroy", template: kendo.template($("#DeleteTemplate").html())}], width: 60}
            ]
        });

This is the template I'm using for the remove button for each row:

<script type="text/x-kendo-template" id="DeleteTemplate">
<button class="btn btn-default" data-bind="click: Applicability.deleteLine">
    <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-remove"></span> 
</button>

With the code above, the Kendro Grid display the data properly. However, when trying to remove any row, at the moment to click in the Remove button, nothing happens.

do I missing something?

It has been a little while since I used Kendo, but if I remember correctly, since the grid itself is not MVVM bound, none of its child elements (including the rendered template) will be checked for MVVM data-bind attributes either.

If your grid was initialized with MVVM using data-role="grid" then I think the templates would be bound too.

I forget exactly how to do it, but I believe when the grid triggers its dataBound event, you can manually call kendo.bind(...) on the grid's child elements to get them to MVVM bind.

Your function for button click is missing here. Once you add this script a button is added to the grid, but what happens when you click on button is not specified

<script type="text/x-kendo-template" id="DeleteTemplate">
<button class="btn btn-default" data-bind="click: Applicability.deleteLine">
    <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-remove"></span> 
</button>

Then you have to add an onclick function for the button:

$('.btn.btn-default').on('click', function() {
  var grid = $("#grid").data("kendoGrid");
   var dataItem = grid.dataItem($(this).closest("tr"));


  if(confirm('Are you sure you want to delete : ' + dataItem.name)) {

    grid.dataSource.remove(dataItem);
    grid.dataSource.sync();
    grid.refresh();
  }  
});
