In addition, directional arrows provide navigation on desktop with RTL support.
You can install this through NPM:
$ npm install navbar.js
Download the latest package. unpack and inspect the contents. You need to copy the navbar.js and navbar.css or their minified variations to your app assets folders as follows.
Link the required CSS in your document <head> tag
<link href="../assets/css/navbar.css" rel="stylesheet">
Link the required JS in your document <body> tag, though it should work in the <head> as well
<script src="../assets/js/navbar.js"></script>
Initiate the function for your elements at the end of your <body> tag
<script>
var myMenu = new Navbar('selector');
</script>
To use the DATA-API, you need to provide the data-function="navbar" attribute to your navbar, like so:
<nav class="navbar" data-function="navbar">
<a href="#" title="App Name">Brand Name</a>
<button class="navbar-toggle">
<i class="menu-icon"></i>
</button>
<div>
<ul class="nav">
<li><a href="#">Link Title</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Another Link Title</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
</nav>
Alternatively you can use only the menu itself and use the specific attribute:
<div class="sidebar">
<ul class="nav" data-function="navbar">
<li><a href="#">Link Title</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Another Link</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
Other initialization and markup options apply, explained in the demo.
import Navbar from 'navbar.js'
let myNav = new Navbar('#myNav')
// get and store it
var Navbar = require("navbar.js");
// initialize it
var myMenu = new Navbar('#myNav');
