Navigation menu simple helper for Kohana3 PHP framework
Navitem, a link formatted as array
$navitem = array(
'title' => 'Item1',
'href' => 'http://domain.es',
'target'=> '_blank'
);
Navdata, an array of navitems
$navdata = array(
array(
'title'=>'Item1'
'href'=>'http://google.es'
),
array(
'title'=>'Item2'
)
);
As a static helper, you can call Nav from wherever you want. There are some examples calling Nav in different ways, that may help you.
$nav = Nav::instance();
$nav->add_navitem(
array(
'title' => $group->name,
'href' => URL::site($group->link)
'target' => '_blank'
) );
$nav->add_navitem(
array(
'title' => $subgroup->name,
'href' => URL::site($subgroup->link)
) )
$nav->add( $product->name, URL::site($product->link) )
$nav->add( $subproduct->name );
$html = $nav->render();
<html>
<body>
<?php echo Nav::instance()->add('Home','/')->add('News','/news')->add('New'); ?>
</body>
</html>
The render() method is automagically called using __toString()
The resultant code is:
<ul id="nav">
<li><a href="/">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="/news">News</a></li>
<li>New</li>
</ul>
You can easily stylize it using CSS.
I use the Controller_Template to manage the views of my App, and then I added a private $nav; atribute to my Controller_Base wich extends the Controller_Template and from wich the rest of my controllers extend.
I initialize $nav on the it's constructor, with an initial Home value.
$this->nav = Nav::instance()->add('Home', URL::site());
Later, on whathever action method of any app controller, I add specific navigation info.
$this->template->nav->add( $promo->name, $promo->link )
->add( $cat->name, $cat->link )
->add( $product->name );
And finally, the data has to be rendered somewhere. I added it to my template
<html>
<body>
<div id="header"><?php echo $nav->render(); ?></div>
</body>
</html>
