All the above answers are almost correct but still, the buttons are not showing. You can also use the following trick to display export buttons.
var table = $('#example').DataTable({
buttons: [
'copy', 'csv', 'excel', 'pdf', 'print'
]
});
$('#btn-place').html(table.buttons().container());
Now create a div where you want to add these buttons.
<div id="btn-place"></div>
