The issue wich discussed the implementation of routes.
Concepts
========
.. warning::
to be written
Add a menu in a template
========================
In your twig template, use the `chill_menu` function :
.. code-block:: html+jinja
{{ chill_menu('person', {
'layout': 'ChillPersonBundle::menu.html.twig',
'args' : {'id': person.id },
'activeRouteKey': 'chill_person_view'
}) }}
The available arguments are:
* `layout` : a custom layout. Default to `ChillMainBundle:Menu:defaultMenu.html.twig`
* `args` : those arguments will be passed through the url generator.
* `activeRouteKey` must be the route key name.
.. note::
The argument `activeRouteKey` may be a twig variable, defined elsewhere in your template, even in child templates.
Create an entry in an existing menu
===================================
If a route belongs to a menu, you simply add this to his definition in routing.yml :
.. code-block:: yaml
chill_person_history_list:
pattern: /person/{person_id}/history
defaults: { _controller: ChillPersonBundle:History:list }
options:
#declare menus
menus:
# the route should be in 'person' menu :
person:
#and have those arguments :
order: 100
label: menu.person.history
* `order` (mandatory) : the order in the menu. It is preferrable to increment by far more than 1.
* `label` (mandatory) : a translatable string.
* `helper` (optional) : a text to help people to understand what does the menu do. Not used in default implementation.
* `condition` (optional) : an `Expression Language <http://symfony.com/doc/current/components/expression_language/index.html> `_ which will make the menu appears or not. Typically, it may be used to say "show this menu only if the person concerned is more than 18". **Not implemented yet**.
* `access` (optional) : an Expression Language to evalute the possibility, for the user, to show this menu according to Access Control Model. **Not implemented yet.**
You may add additional keys, but should not use the keys described above.
You may add the same route to multiple menus :
.. code-block:: yaml
chill_person_history_list:
pattern: /person/{person_id}/history
defaults: { _controller: ChillPersonBundle:History:list }
options:
menus:
menu1:
order: 100
label: menu.person.history
menu2:
order: 100
label: another.label
Customize menu rendering
========================
You may customize menu rendering by using the `layout` option.
.. warning ::
TODO : this part should be written.
.. _caveats :
Caveats
=======
Currently, you may pass arguments globally to each menu, and they will be all passed to route url. This means that :
* the argument name in the route entry must match the argument key in menu declaration in twig template
* if an argument is missing to generate an url, the url generator will throw a `Symfony\Component\Routing\Exception\MissingMandatoryParametersException`
* if the argument name is not declared in route entry, it will be added to the url, (example: `/my/route?additional=foo`)
