Laravel Menu Generator

This is a useful package for building menus in your Laravel application, and it can help simplify the process of creating and managing menus in your application.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require salahhusa9/laravel-menu

You can publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="menu-config"

Optionally, you can publish the views using

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="menu-views"

Usage

Basic

You can create menu in your application in any place you want, but the best place is in the AppServiceProvider.php file in the boot() method.

use SalahHusa9\Menu\Facades\Menu;

public function boot()
{
    Menu::add('test', 'route.name', 'fa fa-home');
}

Add items to the menu using the add() method. You can chain multiple add() calls to add multiple items.

Menu::add('test')
    ->add('test2');

To create a submenu, call addSubmenu() on a menu item and add items to the submenu using the add() method.

Menu::add('test')
    ->add('test2')
    ->addSubmenu('test3', function ($submenu) {
        $submenu->add('test4');
    })
    ->add('test5');

Blade

To render the menu, use the <x-menu /> blade component.

<x-menu />

Customization of the menu

Icons can be added to the menu items by passing the icon parameter to the add() method.

Menu::add('test', 'route.name', ['icon' => 'fa fa-home']);

You can also add a id and class to the menu item by passing the id and class parameters to the add() method.

Menu::add('test', 'route.name',['class' => 'customClass', 'id' => 'customId']);

You can also add a target to the menu item by passing the target parameter to the add() method.

Menu::add('test', 'route.name', ['target' => '_blank']);

You can also add a badge to the menu item by passing the badgeClass and badgeName parameters to the add() method.

Menu::add('test', 'route.name', ['badgeClass' => 'badge badge-success', 'badgeName' => 'New']);

You can also

// old:
if (auth()->user()->can('gateName')){
    Menu::add('test', 'route.name');
}
// new:
Menu::add('test', 'route.name', ['gateName' => 'gateName']);

Customization of the menu view

You can customize the menu view by publishing the views using

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="menu-views"

You can create multiple menus in your application:

    Menu::make('sidebar', function ($menu) {
        $menu->add('test', 'route.name');
    });

    Menu::make('main', function ($menu) {
