Contexr is a context menu integrated with a hotkey library for Angular. Define context menus in the components where you need them, provide them with arguments, and set up hotkeys in the same place. Submenus will be merged, so you don't have to worry about adding the same submenu in different components.
Start by installing Contexr using npm:
npm install contexr
Now the only thing remaining to do is to add the ctx-context-menu tag to app.component.html.
<!-- Your application code -->
<ctx-context-menu></ctx-context-menu>`After installing Contexr, you can start adding context menus to your components.
For example, if you need to increase and decrease a number displayed in your component,
start by creating the field menu: MenuItem[] and add the options that increase and decrease
the count field. In this example hotkeys are also defined for these options:
count: number = 0;
menu: MenuItem[] = [
{
label: "Increase",
action: () => { this.count++; },
hotkey: 'plus'
},
{
label: "Console message",
action: () => { this.count-- },
hotkey: '-'
}
]Next, pass the menu field to the [ctx] attribute and your counter is done!
<div [ctx]="menu">
Use the context menu to increase the count.
<br />
Count: {{count}}
