How to make action after click on button?

[patrykoz]

Hello,
I’d like to make a complex page which allows me to read text/options from inputs. First of all I’d like to make a button that invoke a method and pass text from textarea after click on it. This is my code, I don’t want send anything to output. How to do it?

management_page= html.Div([

            dcc.Input(id='name',placeholder='Enter a value...',type='text',value=''),
            html.Button(id='button',value='Click')

])
@app.callback(Output(),[Input('button','value')],
)
def addNew(value):
    addTab(str(value))

use the property n_clicks instead of value

Look here - I have these tabs.

If i click on tab “Management” callback is called - i don;t want it. When I click on button callback is called and property n_clicks is updated.
Callback invoke other methods which have to be invoked only when button is clicked

My code now:

management_page= html.Div([

            dcc.Input(id='name',placeholder='Type a name',type='text',value=''),
            html.Br(),
            "Choose elements",
            dcc.Dropdown(id='dropd',options=[
                {'label': 'g1', 'value': 'g'},
                {'label': 'b1', 'value': 'b'},
            ],
                multi=True),
            html.Button(id='button',n_clicks=0)

])
@app.callback(Output('name','value'),[Input('button','n_clicks')],
)
def addNew(click):
    #other methods here

EDIT: So, I’ve decided to use time_stamp. Now my code looks like this:

@app.callback(Output('name','value'),[Input('button','n_clicks_timestamp')],
)
def addNew(click):
    pprint(klik)
    if click is not None:
        #my code here
    else:
        return #do nothing

So, I think it’s done
