A quick and easy way to build menus in [Laravel](http://laravel.com/)

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require rc1021/laravel-menu-architect
```

If you are in Laravel 5.5 you won't need to edit your `config/app.php`, if you are in a previous version of Laravel, please do the following:

Append Laravel Menu service provider to `providers` array in `config/app.php`.

```
'providers' => [

        /*
         * Laravel Framework Service Providers...
         */
        Illuminate\Foundation\Providers\ArtisanServiceProvider::class,
        Illuminate\Auth\AuthServiceProvider::class,
        Illuminate\Broadcasting\BroadcastServiceProvider::class,

    ...

        Rc1021\LaravelMenuArchitect\LaravelMenuArchitectServiceProvider::class,

        ...

],
```

At the end of `config/app.php` add `'MenuArct'    => Rc1021\LaravelMenuArchitect\Facades\MenuArct::class` to the `$aliases` array:

```
'aliases' => [

    'App'       => Illuminate\Support\Facades\App::class,
    'Artisan'   => Illuminate\Support\Facades\Artisan::class,
    ...
    'MenuArct'      => Rc1021\LaravelMenuArchitect\Facades\MenuArct::class,

],
```

This registers the package with Laravel and creates an alias called `MenuArct`.

To use your own settings, publish config.

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Rc1021\\LaravelMenuArchitect\\LaravelMenuArchitectServiceProvider"
```

Getting Started
---------------

[](#getting-started)

Start up laravel server

```
php artisan serve
```

and open [http://127.0.0.1:8000/menu\_arct](http://127.0.0.1:8000/menu_arct) get start.

Demo data (seeder)
------------------

[](#demo-data-seeder)

You can seeder the database first.

```
php artisan db:seed --class=MenuArchitectSeeder
```

Finally, open a view and add:

```
{!! menu_arct('admin') !!}
```

Your menu will be created and displayed on the page.

Output data
-----------

[](#output-data)

You can also get menu data format by 'array' or 'json', like that:

```
$arr_menu = menu_arct('admin', '_array');
$json_menu = menu_arct('admin', '_json');
```

Output display
--------------

[](#output-display)

[![Display Menu](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rc1021/laravel-menu-architect/master/output_display.png)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rc1021/laravel-menu-architect/master/output_display.png)

Custom data method
------------------

[](#custom-data-method)

You can customize some methods to use `$menu`, `$menu->items`(relation with menu\_id), `$items`(parent-children).

```
$customize_func = function ($menu)
{
    // $menu: main menu modal.
    // $menu->items: items by menu_id.
    // $menu->buildTree(): get a hierarchical array data.(parent, children)

    $collection = collect($menu->items);
    $filtered = $collection->filter(function ($item, $key) {
        return $item['depth'] == 2 and isset($item['children']);
    });
    return $filtered->all();
}

$customize_data = menu_arct('admin', 'key', ['key' => $customize_func]);
```

Output display with custom view
-------------------------------

[](#output-display-with-custom-view)

[![Custom View](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rc1021/laravel-menu-architect/master/custom_view.png)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rc1021/laravel-menu-architect/master/custom_view.png)

Now, you can add a view to `resources/views/vendor/menu_architect/display` to render menu.

if you have a view called `your_view.blade.php`

```
// your_view.blade.php

// $menu: main menu modal
// $menu->items: items by menu_id
// $items: Hierarchical array data(parent, children)

    @foreach ($items as $item)
        {{$item['label']}}
        @if(isset($item['children']))
            @each('menu_architect::menu.display.adminlte_list', $item['children'], 'item')
        @endif
    @endforeach

```

and you can do `menu_arct('admin', 'your_view')` to render result
