isOpen
- Boolean for telling if the menu is open. This was passed in as a prop instead of having the component's own state so you can decide when to close the menu on your own.close
- a function to call that turns theisOpen
boolean to falsetoggle

NestedDropdownMenu
static propTypes = {

}
toggle
- an renderable item that will open the nested menu on hover. It gets wrapped in ali
element, so it might be best to have a button or a link tag.nested
- the nested menu's expansion direction. The default case should hopefully be the only used case.- Inherit - If the main dropdown menu is aligned left, the nested menu will appear to the left as well.
- Reverse - If the main dropdown menu is aligned left, the nested menu will appear to the right.
- Left - Force the menu to appear to the left of the menu.
- Right - Force the menu to appear to the right of the menu.
animate
- boolean if the nested menu should animate when appearing. Defaults tofalse
direction

enterTimeout
- the amount of time in ms to end the CSSTransitionGroup. Defaults to150
leaveTimeout
- the amount of time in ms to end the CSSTransitionGroup. Defaults to150
openOnMouseover
- boolean if the menu can be opened/close by mouseover/mouseleave events
Styling
In the dist
folder, there is a react-dd-menu.css
and a react-dd-menu.min.css
with the default css stylings. If you have SASS, the source is located in src/scss
.
If you don't want the default css or to edit the default, the layout is this:
.dd-menu
| -- toggle component
| -- .dd-menu-items
| | -- ul
| | | [role="separator"], .separator
The separator can be any element with a classname of .separator
or any element with a role of separator (or both). To get the best styling, it should probably be applied to an li
element.
Usage
import React from 'react';
import DropdownMenu from 'react-dd-menu';
class Example extends React.Component {
constructor() {
this.state = {
isMenuOpen: false
};
}
toggle = () => {
this.setState({ isMenuOpen: !this.state.isMenuOpen });
};
close = () => {
this.setState({ isMenuOpen: false });
};
click = () => {
console.log('You clicked an item');
};
render() {
let menuOptions = {
isOpen: this.state.isOpen,
close: this.close.bind(this),
toggle: <button type="button" onClick={this.toggle.bind(this)}>Click me!</button>,
align: 'right',
};
return (
<DropdownMenu {...menuOptions}>
<li><a href="#">Example 1</a></li>
<li><button type="button" onClick={this.click.bind(this)}>Example 2</button></li>
</DropdownMenu>
);
}
}
or..
var React = require('react');
var DropdownMenu = require('react-dd-menu');
var Example = React.createClass({
getInitialState: function() {
return { isMenuOpen: false };
},
toggle: function() {
this.setState({ isMenuOpen: !this.state.isMenuOpen });
},
close: function() {
this.setState({ isMenuOpen: false });
},
click: function() {
console.log('You clicked an item');
},
render: function() {
var menuOptions = {
isOpen: this.state.isOpen,
close: this.close,
toggle: <button type="button" onClick={this.toggle}>Click me!</button>,
align: 'right'
}
return (
<DropdownMenu {...menuOptions}>
<li><a href="#">Example 1</a></li>
<li><button type="button" onClick={this.click}>Example 2</button></li>
</DropdownMenu>
);
}
});
Nested Menu Example
'use strict';
import React from 'react';
import DropdownMenu, { NestedDropdownMenu } from 'react-dd-menu';
class Example extends React.Component {
constructor() {
this.state = {
isMenuOpen: false
};
}
toggle = () => {
this.setState({ isMenuOpen: !this.state.isMenuOpen });
}
close = () => {
this.setState({ isMenuOpen: false });
};
click = () => {
console.log('You clicked an item');
};
render() {
const menuOptions = {
isOpen: this.state.isOpen,
close: this.close.bind(this),
toggle: <button type="button" onClick={this.toggle.bind(this)}>Click me!</button>,
align: 'right',
};
const nestedProps = {
toggle: <a href="#">Hover me for Nested Menu!</a>,
animate: true,
};
return (
<DropdownMenu {...menuOptions}>
<li><a href="#">Example 1</a></li>
<li><button type="button" onClick={this.click.bind(this)}>Example 2</button></li>
<li role="separator" className="separator" />
<NestedDropdownMenu {...nestedProps}>
<li><a href="#">I am in a Nested Menu!</a></li>
</NestedDropdownMenu>
</DropdownMenu>
