Web Component Sidebar

What?

This is supposed to be a generic, multipurpose sidebar, that is going to be highly adaptable. At the moment, the sidebar is working and useable, but there will be lots of changes and improvements to come.

How?

Use the sidebar by importing the web-component and adding it to the HTML DOM like this:

<script  type="module">
	import  "./node_modules/web-component-sidebar/dist/sidebar-menu.js";
</script>
<style>
	#sidebar {
		/* --main-bg-color: #21333D;
		--main-font-color: #fff;*/
		--hover-bg-color: red;
		/* --selected-font-color: #fff;
		--submenu-border-color: #2E4A5A;
		--icon-bg-color: transparent;
		--sidebar-cell-height: 80px;
		--sidebar-icon-height: 60px; */
		/* --sidebar-cell-minwidth: 550px; */
		/*--font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif;
		--font-size: 1.1rem; */
	}
</style>
<sidebar-menu  id="sidebar"  
	images-root="../../../assets"  
	menu-items='
		[
		   {
		       "id": "what-ever-you-set",
		       "displayName": "Sidebaritem",
		       "icon": "Sidebarlogo.svg",
		       "children": [
		           {
		               "id": "RBG1",
		               "displayName": "Sub-Sidebaritem",
		               "children": [
		                   {
		                       "id": "what-ever-you-set",
		                       "displayName": "Sub-Sidebaritem"
		                   },
		                   {
		                       "id": "what-ever-you-set",
		                       "displayName": "Sub-Sidebaritem"
		                   },
		                   {
		                       "id": "what-ever-you-set",
		                       "displayName": "Sub-Sidebaritem",
		                       "children": [
		                           {
		                               "id": "what-ever-you-set",
		                               "displayName": "Sub-Sub-Sidebaritem"
		                           },
		                           {
		                               "id": "what-ever-you-set",
		                               "displayName": "Sub-Sub-Sidebaritem"
		                           }
		                       ]
		                   }
		               ]
		           }
		       ]
		   }
		]'></sidebar-menu>

You can pass the sidebar structure via json into the element. The icon property contains the relative path to the images folder. The base path can be set via the images-root property.

Styling

The component has a default style, which can be overwritten by setting the css variables, like seen in the code-snippet above.
