How to display processing loader on custom button click

hafizctn

Is there a way I can display processing loader when clicked on a custom button?

text: '<i class="fa fa-trash"></i> Delete Selected',
enabled: false,
action: function () {   
    //show loader/processing 
    if (!confirm('Are you sure want to delete selected items?')) {
        return;
    }
    //hide loader/processing 
}

Thank you for the reply, I am already using a similar solution. I was wondering if we can somehow trigger built in processing of Datatables with some javascript.
