Sorry, I should have documented this earlier. Nevermind better late than never.
Installation
Bower
bower install --save angular-ui-router-menus
Npm (webpack/systemjs, etc)
npm install --save angular-ui-router-menus
Include in angular app/html, make sure you have angular and ui-router up and working:
<head>
<script src="js/angular-ui-router.min.js"></script>
<script>
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', ['ui.router', 'ui.router.menus']);
</script>
</head>Usage
In ui-router states, simply add a property called menu (keyword) with value string|any object. menu object can have any fields of your choice like name (keyword), content, priority, active, disabled, tag (keyword) etc.
$stateProvider
.state('company', {
controller: '...',
template: '...',
menu: {
name: 'company-menu',
active: true,
content: 'Company',
priority: 99,
anything: 'put any property / object'
tag: 'sidebar topmenu'
}
})
.state('company-about', {
menu: 'About',
tag: 'sidebar'
})
.state('investors', {
menu: 'Investors',
tag: 'topmenu'
});In templates,
Simple:
<ul menus="menuItems">
<li ng-repeat="menu in menuItems><a ui-sref="{{menu.state.name}}">{{menu.name}}</a></li>
</ul>Use
menu.stateto access all state properties.
Ordered based on priority:
<ul menus="menuItems">
<li ng-repeat="menu in menuItems | orderBy:'-priority'"><a ui-sref="{{menu.state.name}}">{{menu.name}}</a></li>
</ul>Filtered based on state name:
<ul menus="menuItems" include="company*">
<li ng-repeat="menu in menuItems><a ui-sref="{{menu.state.name}}">{{menu.name}}</a></li>
</ul>Filtered based on tag:
<ul menus="menuItems" tag="sidebar">
<li ng-repeat="menu in menuItems><a ui-sref="{{menu.state.name}}">{{menu.name}}</a></li>
</ul>Hierarichal menus / Tree of menu items:
By default, menu items are flattened. To maintain the tree hierarchy of states and access menu.children array of sub menus on each menu item:
<ul menus="menuItems" type="tree">
<li ng-repeat="menu in menuItems>
<a ui-sref="{{menu.state.name}}">{{menu.name}}</a>
<ul>
<li ng-repeat="submenu in menu.children>
<a ui-sref="{{submenu.state.name}}">{{submenu.name}}</a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>By default,
type='list'.
More fun? Use glob patterns and also add multiple include/tags delimited with spaces.
<ul menus="menuItems" include="company* investors">
<li ng-repeat="menu in menuItems><a ui-sref="{{menu.state.name}}">{{menu.name}}</a></li>
</ul>
<ul menus="menuItems" tag="sidebar topmenu">
<li ng-repeat="menu in menuItems><a ui-sref="{{menu.state.name}}">{{menu.name}}</a></li>
</ul>Deep dive? Inject $menus service into controller and call $menu.get|getTree.
