An admin panel for menu items on Laravel 5 or Laravel 6, using [Backpack\CRUD](https://github.com/Laravel-Backpack/crud). Add, edit, reorder, nest, rename menu items and link them to [Backpack\PageManager](https://github.com/Laravel-Backpack/pagemanager) pages, external link or custom internal link.

Usually used for front-end menus, not back-end. Adding a menu item in MenuCRUD will not add an item in the admin sidebar, though you can easily customize Backpack\Base's ```sidebar.blade.php``` to show all menu items in the db, if you'd like.

## Install

This needs [Backpack\PageManager](https://github.com/Laravel-Backpack/pagemanager) to be installed first. If you haven't already, please do that first.

Since MenuCRUD is just a Backpack\CRUD example, you can choose to install it one of two ways.

**(A) Download and place files in your application** (recommended)

or

**(B) As a package**

The only PRO of installing it as a package is that you may benefit from updates. But the reality is there is very little (if any) bug fixing to do, so you probably won't need to update it, ever.

#### Installation type (A) - download

1) [Download the latest build](https://github.com/Laravel-Backpack/MenuCRUD/archive/master.zip).

2) Paste the 'app' and 'database' folders over your projects (merge them). No file overwrite warnings should come up.

3) Copy the `page_or_link.blade.php` file located in 'resources/views/fields' folder to your project's 'resources/views/vendor/backpack/crud/fields' folder. No file overwrite warnings should come up.

4) Replace all mentions of 'Backpack\MenuCRUD\app' in the pasted files with your application's namespace ('App' if you haven't changed it):
- app/Http/Controllers/Admin/MenuItemCrudController.php
- app/Models/MenuItem.php

5) Run the migration to have the database table we need:
```
php artisan migrate
```

6) Add MenuCRUD to your routes file:

```
Route::group(['prefix' => config('backpack.base.route_prefix', 'admin'), 'middleware' => ['web', 'auth'], 'namespace' => 'Admin'], function () {
// Backpack\MenuCRUD
Route::crud('menu-item', 'MenuItemCrudController');
});
```

7) [optional] Add a menu item for it:

```
# For Backpack v6
php artisan backpack:add-menu-content ""
# For Backpack v5 or v4
php artisan backpack:add-sidebar-content "

"
```

#### Installation type (B) - package

1) In your terminal, run:

``` bash
composer require backpack/menucrud
```

2) Publish the migration:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Backpack\MenuCRUD\MenuCRUDServiceProvider"
```

3) Run the migration to have the database table we need:

```
php artisan migrate
```

4) [optional] Add a menu item for it:

```
# For Backpack v6
php artisan backpack:add-menu-content ""
# For Backpack v5 or v4
php artisan backpack:add-sidebar-content "

"
```

#### Usage in your template

Here's a simple example to use in your frontend:

You can access item children with `$item->children`

```
@foreach (\App\MenuItem::getTree(); as $item)

{{ $item->name }}

@endforeach
```

For Installation type (B), change the namespace to `Backpack\MenuCRUD\app\Models`.

## Change log

Please see [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md) for more information what has changed recently.

## Overwriting functionality

If you've used installation type A and need to modify how this works in a project:
- create a ```routes/backpack/menucrud.php``` file; the package will see that, and load _your_ routes file, instead of the one in the package;
- create controllers/models that extend the ones in the package, and use those in your new routes file;
- modify anything you'd like in the new controllers/models;
