menu builder is a package which can make you a menu by the input config

Dynamic menu builder

dynamic menu builder is a quick and easy way to create your menu. I'v always wanted a way to generate a menu without recreating everything from the Base., _(*1)

note, vue.js ver2 will needed for this project., _(*2)

Usage

Step 1: install it through composer

composer require mkdesignn/menubuilder

Step 2: Add the Service Provider

Mkdesignn\MenuBuilder\MenuProvider::class

Step 2: Add Facade class

'Menu'      => Mkdesignn\MenuBuilder\Facade::class

Step 3: publish the vendor files

PHP artisan vendor: publish

above command will publish menu folder which contains two files, index.js and style.css which both of them should be included and also this command will publish menu.php config file., _(*3)

Examples

Create simple menu

echo Menu::render('vertical', new \App\Tag(), "vertical-menu");

this way we can build simple menu, as you can see render method takes 3 arguments which I describe each of them in the below., _(*4)

first argument

the first argument Is the type of the menu which wants to be created. it could be vertical or horizontal., _(*5)

second argument

the second argument is the table which we need to use it as a source., _(*6)

The class that pass to the render method should be extended model abstract class, _(*7)

the table tag that has been passed to the render method has the below structure, _(*8)

as you can see in the above grid there are a bunch of fields but there are some that are not necessary to use like the bg_color, bg_hover_color, text_color, text_hover_color, but you can use each of them. this way the menu look likes much more dynamically. the field parent_id should remain parent_id ., _(*9)

third argument

The third argument passed to the render method, it's a class selector which we can use it to add some CSS style to the menu. If no class passed then mk_menu will be using as the default class., _(*10)

fourth argument

we have the fourth argument which we can use it as configuration, the fourth argument should be an array and it'll be using for the configuration., _(*11)

some of the examples

echo Menu::render('vertical', new \App\Tag(), "test");
