DropMenu - Drop Down Menu

DropMenu is a Database driven, Dynamic Drop Down Menu Package for Laravel 5+ . DropMenu is Currently under development so it would be greatful of you to co-operate with it. But as it's an opensource project you are free to contribute.

We are working on it constantly to make things right and get things on the right track. Bear with us just for some time. :)

FEEL FREE TO CONTRIBUTE TO THIS PROJECT BY FORKING, CREATING A PULL REQUEST, CREATING AN ISSUE, ETC.. I'll be glad to answer them.


Installation

For a Stable Release:

composer require secrethash/dropmenu

For the Development Version:

composer require secrethash/dropmenu:dev-master

Configurations

You will need to update you config\app.php file to make it work.

Service Provider

Add the below line in your providers array

        Secrethash\Dropmenu\DropmenuServiceProvider::class,

Facade

To access Dropmenu using Dropmenu facade instead of Secrethash\Dropmenu, you will need to update the aliases array. Add the below line in the aliases array:

        'Dropmenu' => Secrethash\Dropmenu\DropmenuFacade::class,

Migration

Generation

You can generate migration to migrate the database. The migration will create a 'menus' database following the structure requirements of secrethash/dropmenu. The command for creating the migration file is:

php artisan dropmenu:migrate

Migrate

The above command creates the migration file in database\migrations directory. From there you will need to migrate using the migrate command.

php artisan migrate

Once the migration is completed, you are ready to seed your database with the menu data. Create menus and play around with it. Let me know if something goes wrong.

Clearing Some Basics

Some basics needs to be cleared out before you work on/with this package.

  • It Creates Bootstarp menus.
  • Dynamic Drop Down Menus can be created using it.
  • Database Table menus:
    • ID The unique identifier.
    • parent_idIt will be defined if a sub-menu is created. ID of the parent menu item will be the value here.
    • name Name to display.
    • order_by Comes handy when creating multiple menu items of same hierarchy level.
    • link Value supplied to the <a href=""> of the menu item.
    • link_attr Any extra Attributes of the Link. Like target="_blank".
    • icon Icon Class Code supplied to the <i class="">. If using font-awesome, use full class code that is to be provided in <i>, like fa fa-code.
    • type It is used to distinguish multiple menus. For example there is a Main nav menu and Sidebar Nav Menu. So different names can be alloted to both.
    • authAuthentication Level can be defined here. Here 1=Authenticated Users Only, 2=Unauthenticated Users Only, 0=Both User Groups

Displaying the Menu

The menu can be displayed by using the following function:

Dropmenu::display($type);

The $type is the value provided in the type column in the database table. For Example: main:nav or sidebar or sidebar:nav or main:foot, etc.
