Arborescence
============

[](#arborescence)

Arborescence is a minimal tree menu for quickly accessing nested pages in your Kirby panel.

It's a `PagesSection` plugin providing navigation access to nested pages (no actions).

Technically, it simply wraps the native `k-pages-tree` into a panel section ready to use with your blueprints.
*(The `k-pages-tree` is shown in the page move dialog for example.)*

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- Kirby 5 with the panel enabled.
- Maybe v4 works too? (*Report back if it does !*)

Install
-------

[](#install)

- Manually: Download and copy this repository to `/site/plugins/arborescence`.
- Composer: `composer require daandelange/arborescence`
- Git submodule: `git submodule add https://github.com/daandelange/kirby-arborescence.git site/plugins/arborescence`

Setup
-----

[](#setup)

Add the `arborescence` section to your blueprint :

```
sections:
  pages_menu:
    type: arborescence
```

Options
-------

[](#options)

All section options are optional:

- `label`: A label. (Default = `null`)
- `rootPage`: The root of the menu to display. `site` or `pages/id+sub-id`. (Default = current content page model)
- `showParent`: To show the parent as an antry. (Default = `true`)

### Examples

[](#examples)

```
# Static artworks menu in `site.yml`
sections:
  artworks_menu:
    type: arborescence
    label: Artworks
    rootPage: 'pages/art'
    showParent: true

# A site tree view in `site.yml`
sections:
  site_menu:
    type: arborescence
    # Labels can be translated too
    label:
      fr: Arborescence du site
      en: Site tree view
    #rootPage: 'site' # uncomment this line to add the same global site menu on another page

# Show page childs in `default.yml` / `other.yml`
sections:
  children_menu:
    type: arborescence
    label: Child Pages
    showParent: false
```
