Table Submenu

this module helps you to add a submenu on a click on a table row.

Very useful when using datatbles for example.

install the module

yarn add datatablessubmenu

Basics

Read this before

A submenu is a div element with as much as you like a children You must create a config object to let TableSubmenu class know how to build your submenus

  • Note that all rows must have an id attribute
  • You must have a class to hide elements (by default, hide class name is provided)
  • submenu children are a elements whose href attributes are made like this :
    • routePrefix + id + routeSufix routePrefix is what comes before your id in href routeSufix is what comes after (can be removed)

create a js file

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {
    // select all rows in your table
    const rows = document.querySelectorAll('tr')
    
// loop on your rows
    rows.forEach((row) => {

        // create submenu for each row
        const subMenu = new TableSubmenu(row, {
            // config
            parent: {
                mainClass: "submenu-row",
                classes: [
                    "hide"
                ],
                    idPrefix : "mysubmenu-"
            },
            children: {
                'edit': {
                    routePrefix: "/url/prefix/",
                    routeSufix : "/sufix",
                    text: "First text" // for example "Edit"
                },
                'show': {
                    routePrefix: "/url/prefix2/",
                    routeSufix : "/sufix2",
                    text: "second text" // for example "Show details"
                }
            }
        })
        
        // Add click event listener on each row
        row.addEventLister('click', (e) => {
            // hide all opened submenus
            subMenu.hideAll()
            // show specific row submenu
            subMenu.show(e)
        })
    }
})

Import Css

This module comes with a basic css you can import with @import "~datatablessubmenu";

Use it inside a symfony project with Datatables Omines Bundle

Because of the jQuery included in twig templates to make datatables working, you'll have to include your submenus in your template too.

install

yarn add datatablessubmenu

Create an asset that will be available in public directory

First edit your webpack.config.js file and paste these lines :

.copyFiles({
        from: './node_modules/datatablessubmenu',
        to: 'modules/datatablessubmenu/[path][name].[ext]',
        pattern: /\.(js)$/
    })

Include TableSubmenu class in your template

<script src="{{ asset('build/modules/datatablessubmenu/DatatablesSubmenu.js') }}"></script>

Use it in your datatables configuration

in your twig template you should have your initDatatable function. Yout have to add subMenu in the drawCallback method like above :


$('#yourTableId').initDataTables({{ datatable_settings(datatable) }}, {
    drawCallback: function(settings) {
       
        // [... pre-existant code ... ]
    
        const rows = document.querySelectorAll('tr')
        rows.forEach((row) => {
            const submenu = new TableSubmenu(row, {
                parent: {
                    mainClass: "submenu-row",
                    classes: [
                        "hide"
                    ],
                        idPrefix : "idprefixYouLike-"
                },
                children: {
                    'edit': {
                        routePrefix: "/url/action/",
                        routeSufix : "/sufix", // optional
                        text: "your first link text"
                    },
                    'show': {
                        routePrefix: "/url/action2/",
                        routeSufix : "/sufix", // optional
                        text: "Your second link text"
                    }
                }
            })
            row.addEventListener('click', (e) => {
                submenu.hideAll()
                submenu.show(e)
            })
        })
