Laralabs Menu
-------------

[](#laralabs-menu)

Simple, extendable menu package for Laravel.

You define how it renders, the package just gives you the data to do it with.

- Attach to a blade file via a view composer.
- Pass data into a Vue component, or do whatever you want with it!

🚀 Quick Start
-------------

[](#rocket-quick-start)

### Installation

[](#installation)

Require the package in the `composer.json` of your project.

```
composer require laralabs/menu

```

Publish the configuration file.

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laralabs-menu-config

```

Not much in the configuration file at the moment, but you can choose to register your menus in here if you wish.

### Usage

[](#usage)

Add the `ResolveMenus` middleware to your `app/Http/Kernel.php` in the `$middleware` array:

```
    protected $middleware = [
        // Existing Middleware
        \Laralabs\Menu\Middleware\ResolveMenus::class,
    ];

```

Currently there are no make commands, but there are example menus found in the `tests/Fakes` directory.

Build a class that extends `Laralabs\Menu\Contracts\Menu` and implement the required methods.

Extenders can be built by creating a class that extends implements `Laralabs\Menu\Contracts\MenuExtender`, edit the menu and then return then return it out of the handle method with the closure `$next($menu)`.

Quick example of creating a menu in the `build()` method:

```
    public function build(): void
    {
        $this->menu->group('groupOne', static function (Group $group) {
            $group->item('Group One, Item One', function (Item $item) {
                $item->subItem('Sub Item');
            });
        });
    }

```
