About Bootstrap Version Usage

The extension detects if you are using the yiisoft/yii2-bootstrap or yiisoft/yii2-bootstrap4 and loads the appropriate assets for the extension. It will check first the "yiisoft/yii2-bootstrap4" if it exists then it will load bootstrap4 resources otherwise it will fall back to use bootstrap3. So make sure you are following the correct guide to use the yiisoft/yii2-bootstrap4" and remove the "yiisoft/yii2-bootstrap": "~2.0.0", from you composer.json and change the minimum-stability:"dev" here is the complete guide.

How do I set up the package

use composer to install the extension

php composer.phar require  buttflattery/yii2-multimenu "@dev"

or add into the composer.json file under require section

"buttflattery/yii2-multimenu":"@dev"

BigDrop minimal options with brand text

The bigdrop menu uses normal dropdowns for the first 2 levels/childs,

  • level 1
    • level 2

which means you need to have 3 or more levels/childs to activate the bigdrop menu, and will support to infinite levels. See below code for $items list.

<?php
    use buttflattery\multimenu\MultiMenu;

?>

Your theme asset class code

<?php
// @codingStandardsIgnoreStart
namespace app\assets;

use buttflattery\multimenu\assetbundles\bs3\ThemeDropUpAsset;

class DropUpBisqueRed extends ThemeDropUpAsset
{
    //@codingStandardsIgnoreEnd

    public function init()
    {
        parent::init();
        array_push($this->css, '/css/theme/dropup/bisque-red.css');
    }
}

Menu items from Database

A helper component buttflattery\multimenu\helpers\MenuHelper is added that comes in handy if you want to just add all the menu items in the database table and leave the rest on this component to generate the items array for the menu.

If you dont have a menu table added yet you can run the migration and use the model provided buttflattery\multimenu\models\Menu.

Running migrations

Run the following command on terminal to run the migrations

php ./yii migrate/up --migrationPath=@vendor/buttflattery/yii2-multimenu/src/migrations

+-----------+-------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Field     | Type        | Null | Key | Default | Extra          |
+-----------+-------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| id        | int(11)     | NO   | PRI | NULL    | auto_increment |
| label     | varchar(50) | NO   |     | NULL    |                |
| link      | text        | YES  |     | NULL    |                |
| parent_id | int(11)     | YES  |     | NULL    |                |
+-----------+-------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+

Configure the MenuHelper Component

Open config/web.php if you are using yii2-basic or the common/config/main.php if you are using advance-app and add the following under the components array.

'components' => [
    'menuhelper' => [
        'class' => 'buttflattery\multimenu\helpers\MenuHelper',
        'model' => 'buttflattery\multimenu\models\Menu',
    ],

If you wish to use your custom model and have a menu table already you can provide your own model namespace and set the field names appropriately for the component to work correctly. See below for a full set of options you can configure for the component.

'components' => [
    'menuhelper' => [
        'class' => 'buttflattery\multimenu\helpers\MenuHelper',
        'model' => 'app\models\Menus',
        'linkField'=>'menu_link',
        'labelField'=>'menu_name',
        'idField'=>'menu_id',
        'parentIdField'=>'menu_parent_id',
    ],

Adding the items for the menu in table

When adding the menu items in the database keep in mind the following things

  • If it is a link that points to any controller/action on site then provide the link like site/index
  • If it is an external link provide the link like https://example.com
  • If it is a parent link that opens a sub menu further, it should have the url as #. which will be replaced with javascript:void(0) by the MenuHelper.
  • If you have any html in the label for example bootstrap 3 has <hr /> tag that can be used as a divider but you need to keep the url field as NULL.
  • If you wish to provide headings inside the menu then you should provide text only in the label field and keep the url field as NULL.

See the sample values below

+----+------------------+------------------------------------------------+-----------+
| id | label            |      link                                      | parent_id |

Now you can call the function getMenuItems(orderByField) to get the $items array like below.

<?php
    use buttflattery\multimenu\MultiMenu;

    echo MultiMenu::widget(
        [
            'activeCssClass' => 'active',
            'items' => Yii::$app->menuhelper->getMenuItems(),
            'layoutTemplate' => '{multimenu}{brand}',
            'enableIcons'=>true,
            'brandUrl' => 'https://plugins.omaraslam.com',
            'brandLabel'=>'Yii2 Multimenu',
            'activateParents' => true,
            'multimenuOptions' => [
                'theme' => MultiMenu::THEME_BIGDROP,
            ],
        ]
    );

?>
