Use KnpMenu with CakePHP 3.

What's included?

  • MenuComponent
  • MenuHelper

Install

Using Composer:

composer require gourmet/knp-menu:~0.4

You then need to load the plugin. In boostrap.php, something like:

\Cake\Core\Plugin::load('Gourmet/KnpMenu');

and add the following to your App\Controller\AppController:

public $components = ['Gourmet/KnpMenu.Menu'];
public $helpers = ['Gourmet/KnpMenu.Menu'];

Usage

It's fairly simple. The concept is you get a menu, and you addChild to it from anywhere at anytime at the controller or view layer. At the view layer, you can also render any defined menu.

Get a menu

$menu = $this->Menu->get('my_menu');

Add child to menu

// using an array for URL and child's name as title
$menu->addChild('Dashboard', ['uri' => ['controller' => 'Users', 'action' => 'dashboard']]);
// using a named route for URL and custom title
$menu->addChild('Dashboard', ['route' => 'dashboard', 'label' => 'My Account']);

Render a menu

Only available at the view layer

// by default, renders as a list
echo $this->Menu->render('my_menu');

Of course, you can set your own renderer (defaults to \Gourmet\KnpMenu\Menu\Renderer\ListRenderer) and matcher (defaults to \Gourmet\KnpMenu\Menu\Matcher\Matcher) by passing them as options:

echo $this->Menu->render('my_menu', [
    'matcher' => '\Custom\Matcher',
    'renderer' => new \Custom\Renderer(...)
]);

For more, please check the official KnpMenu repo and documentation.
