Menu

All Contributors

VTEX Menu is a store component that displays a bar containing links and dropdown submenus.

menu-app

Configuration

  1. Import the menu app to your dependencies as manifest.json. For example:
  "dependencies": {
    "vtex.menu": "2.x"
  }

  1. Add the vtex.menu@2.x:menu block to the store header template.

  2. Configure the menu-item blocks to build the store menu options. These can be declared in two ways in vtex.menu@2.x:menu: as children or as props. The advantage of the second type of menu-item configuration is that Site Editor can be used to edit the blocks.

menu-item as children

Example:

"vtex.menu@2.x:menu#websites": {
  "children": [
    "menu-item#shop",
    "menu-item#about-us"
  ]
},
"menu-item#shop": {
  "props": {
    "id": "menu-item-shop",
    "type": "custom",
    "highlight": false,
    "itemProps": {
      "type": "internal",
      "href": "#",
      "noFollow": false,
      "tagTitle": "Shop",
      "text": "Shop"
    },
    "iconProps": {
      "id": "bnd-logo",
      "size": 16,
      "viewBox": "0 0 16 16",
      "activeClassName": "rebel-pink",
      "mutedClassName": "c-action-primary"
    },
    "iconToTheRight": true
  }
}

menu-item as props

Example:

"vtex.menu@2.x:menu#websites": {
  "props": {
    "items": [
      {
        "id": "menu-item-shop",
        "type": "custom",
        "highlight": false,
        "itemProps": {
          "type": "internal",
          "href": "#",
          "noFollow": false,
          "tagTitle": "Shop",
          "text": "Shop"
        }
      },
      {
        "id": "menu-item-about-us",
        "type": "custom",
        "highlight": false,
        "itemProps": {
          "type": "internal",
          "href": "/about-us",
          "noFollow": false,
          "tagTitle": "about-us",
          "text": "About Us"
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}

You can define a submenu for a menu item:

"menu-item#shop": {
  "props": {
    "type": "custom",
    "highlight": false,
    "itemProps": {
      "type": "internal",
      "href": "#",
      "noFollow": false,
      "tagTitle": "Shop",
      "text": "Shop"
    },
  },
  "blocks": ["vtex.menu@2.x:submenu#shop"] // Defining a submenu
},
"vtex.menu@2.x:submenu#shop": {
  "children": [
    "vtex.menu@2.x:menu#submenushop"
  ]
},
"vtex.menu@2.x:menu#submenushop": {
  "children": [
    "menu-item#shop"
  ]
}
The Menu block has no prerequisite children. Therefore, Menu block implementations do not need to have any blocks declared within them to function properly.

The available menu-item block props are as follows:

Prop name Type Description Default value
type string Menu item type, either category or custom category
id string Menu item ID undefined
highlight boolean Whether the item has a highlight undefined

onMountBehavior enum Whether the submenu should always be automatically displayed when its parent is hovered/clicked on (open) or (close). closed
itemProps CategoryItem or CustomItem Item props undefined
