Custom Menu
Custom Menu can be created when there is more than one input present on the inputs page.
This feature is deprecated (will be removed in the next major version) as
Multilevel Menu
is now ready to use if more than one input is available.
In addition to the multiple inputs, we can use this menu to create a custom component in the top right corner of the Input page.
Properties¶
Property | Description |
---|---|
globalConfig | is a hierarchical object that contains the globalConfig file’s properties and values. |
el | is used to render a custom element (on the top right corner) on the Inputs page. |
setValue | is used to set the value of the custom component. <p>setValue: ƒ (newValue)</p> |
Methods¶
Property | Description |
---|---|
render | is a method which should have logic for the custom menu, and it will be executed automatically when the inputs page is rendered. |
Usage¶
{
"inputs": {
"title": "Inputs",
"description": "Manage your data inputs",
"services": [],
"table": {
"actions": ["edit", "delete", "clone"],
"header": [],
"moreInfo": []
},
"menu": {

}
}
}
Example¶
class CustomMenu {
/**
* Custom Menu
* @constructor
* @param {Object} globalConfig - Global configuration.
* @param {element} el - The element of the custom menu.
* @param {function} setValue - set value of the custom field.
*/
constructor(globalConfig, el, setValue) {
this.globalConfig = globalConfig;
this.el = el;
this.setValue = setValue;
this.services = {};
}
render() {
this.el.innerHTML = '<button type="button">Click Me! I am a button for custom menu</button>'
this.el.onclick = () => {
this.setValue({
service: "example_input_one" // The value of service can be the name of any services, specified in the globalConfig file.
})
}
}
}
export default CustomMenu;
Note: The Javascript file for the custom control should be saved in the custom folder at
appserver/static/js/build/custom/
.

This is how it looks in the UI:
