Module: RocketNavigation::Helpers

Defined in:
lib/rocket_navigation/helpers.rb

Overview

View helpers to render the navigation.

Use render_navigation as following to render your navigation:

  • call render_navigation without :level option to render your complete navigation as nested tree.

  • call render_navigation(level: x) to render a specific navigation level (e.g. level: 1 to render your primary navigation, level: 2 to render the sub navigation and so forth)

  • call render_navigation(:level => 2..3) to render navigation levels 2 and 3).

For example, you could use render_navigation(level: 1) to render your primary navigation as tabs and render_navigation(level: 2..3) to render the rest of the navigation as a tree in a sidebar.

Examples (using Haml)

#primary_navigation= render_navigation(level: 1)

#sub_navigation= render_navigation(level: 2)

#nested_navigation= render_navigation

#top_navigation= render_navigation(level: 1..2)
#sidebar_navigation= render_navigation(level: 3)

Instance Method Details

#is_active_nav_link?(url, condition = nil) ⇒ Boolean

Returns true or false based on the provided path and condition Possible condition values are:

               Boolean -> true | false
                Symbol -> :exclusive | :inclusive
                 Regex -> /regex/
Controller/Action Pair -> [[:controller], [:action_a, :action_b]]

Example usage:

is_active_nav_link?('/root', true)
is_active_nav_link?('/root', :exclusive)
is_active_nav_link?('/root', /^\/root/)
is_active_nav_link?('/root', ['users', ['show', 'edit']])

#render_navigation(options = {}, &block) ⇒ Object

Renders the navigation according to the specified options-hash.

The following options are supported:

  • :level - defaults to :all which renders the the sub_navigation for an active primary_navigation inside that active primary_navigation item. Specify a specific level to only render that level of navigation (e.g. level: 1 for primary_navigation, etc). Specifiy a Range of levels to render only those specific levels (e.g. level: 1..2 to render both your first and second levels, maybe you want to render your third level somewhere else on the page)

  • :expand_all - defaults to false. If set to true the all specified levels will be rendered as a fully expanded tree (always open). This is useful for javascript menus like Superfish.

  • :items - you can specify the items directly (e.g. if items are dynamically generated from database).

  • :renderer - specify the renderer to be used for rendering the navigation. Either provide the Class or a symbol matching a registered renderer. Defaults to :list (html list renderer).

Instead of using the :items option, a block can be passed to specify the items dynamically

Examples

render_navigation do |menu|
  menu.item :posts, "Posts", posts_path
end
