Listen to topbar events


Hi
I try to use "kt.menu.dropdown.show" to catch when the user dropdown menu is open.
But on vue3 and Metronic 8.0.38 I get this javascript error:


Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: _layout_header_Topbar_vue__WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_1__.default?.reinitialization is not a function


This is the code:

onMounted(() => {
 nextTick(() => {
 const toolbarElement = document.getElementById(
 "kt_header_user_menu_toggle"
 ) as HTMLInputElement | null;
 console.log(toolbarElement);
 KTTopbar?.reinitialization();
 KTTopbar?.createInstance(toolbarElement);
 const toolbar = KTTopbar?.getInstance(toolbarElement);
 console.log(toolbar);
 toolbar?.on("kt.menu.dropdown.show", function () {
 console.log("open");
 return false;
 });
 });
 });


Can you help me?
Thank you

Hi
I added the MenuComponent component and changed the code like this:

onMounted(() => {
 nextTick(() => {
 const toolbarElement = document.getElementById(
 "user_menu"
 ) as HTMLInputElement;
 console.log(toolbarElement);
 const toolbar = MenuComponent?.getInstance(toolbarElement);
 console.log(toolbar);
 toolbar?.on("kt.menu.dropdown.show", function () {
 console.log("open");
 return false;
 });
 });
 });


the javascript error is gone but

const toolbar = MenuComponent?.getInstance(toolbarElement);

returns null

If I add the two lines:

MenuComponent?.reinitialization();
MenuComponent?.createInsance("user_menu");

"toolbar" returns the object but the user menu no longer opens

Hi,

null is returned because MenuComponent instance wasn't created.

reinitialication and createInsance functions are doing the same thing, they create MenuComponent instances for your elements, so instead of calling both function you can just call createInsance.

Hi
If I use only:

MenuComponent?.createInsance("user_menu");

the "toolbar" is null again.
But if I add or use only:

MenuComponent?.reinitialization();

User menu does't not work anymore.


user

I think I have found the problem.
In "kt.menu.dropdown" events if I remove the line with "return false;" "User menu" works correctly.
Here is the correct code:


onMounted(() => {
 nextTick(() => {
 const toolbarElement = document.getElementById(
 "user_menu"
 ) as HTMLInputElement;
 console.log(toolbarElement);
 MenuComponent?.reinitialization();
 MenuComponent?.createInsance("user_menu");
 const toolbar = MenuComponent?.getInstance(toolbarElement);
 console.log(toolbar);
 toolbar?.on("kt.menu.dropdown.show", function () {
 console.log("open");
 });
 toolbar?.on("kt.menu.dropdown.hide", function () {
 console.log("close");
 });
 });
 });


thanks for the support


user
Lauris Stepanovs Author1 year ago

Sorry I didn't notice return true; in your code.

Here is an example of how you can achieve the same thing without calling createInsance function.

onMounted(() => {
 nextTick(() => {
 const item: HTMLElement = document.getElementById(
 "instance_id"
 ) as HTMLElement;


 MenuComponent.reinitialization();


const menu = MenuComponent.getInstance(item);



 menu?.on("kt.menu.dropdown.show", function () {
 console.log("show");
 });


 menu?.on("kt.menu.dropdown.hide", function () {
 console.log("hide");
 });
 });
});

Hello
I have another problem.
In the user menu I have a dropdown item.
On the over of this element the same event is triggered.
I would like the event to be triggered only at the opening and closing of the first dropdown.
Is there any way to do this?
Here is the HTML part:

If you added event listening code to this component it will be triggered on every component instance, to avoid this you can move your code from this component to component where you are using it.

For example, you have two usage places, the first is in Toolbar and second is in the Header, you want to trigger the event only when the user clicks the menu in the Toolbar, then you need to move code to the Toolbar level.

Hi,
the previous javascript code was already in Toolbar.vue
But the events is also triggered on the "Language" dropdown element in "UserMenu.vue"


user
Lauris Stepanovs Author1 year ago

Did you removed MenuComponent?.createInsance("user_menu"); from your component?

Regards,
Lauris Stepanovs,
Keenthemes Support Team


user
Eleonora 1 year ago

yes
here the final code:

onMounted(() => {
 nextTick(() => {
 const toolbarElement = document.getElementById(
 "user_menu"
 ) as HTMLInputElement;
 MenuComponent?.reinitialization();
 const toolbar = MenuComponent?.getInstance(toolbarElement);
 toolbar.on("kt.menu.dropdown.show", function () {
 console.log("open");
 });
 toolbar.on("kt.menu.dropdown.hide", function () {
 console.log("close");
 });
 });
 });


user

Hi,

Do you have a second component instance in your toolbar or in the toolbar child components?

If in your toolbar you have only one component instance with id user_menu then events should trigger only when you click the menu inside in toolbar component.

How can I check this?
here the HTML code of Topbar.vue

<template>
 <!--begin::Toolbar wrapper-->
 <div class="d-flex align-items-stretch flex-shrink-0">
 <!--begin::Notifications-->
 <div class="d-flex align-items-center ms-1 ms-lg-3"></div>
 <!--end::Notifications-->

 <!--begin::User-->
 <div
 class="dropdown d-flex align-items-center ms-1 ms-lg-3"
 id = "kt_header_user_menu_toggle"
 >
 <!--begin::Menu-->
 <div
 class="cursor-pointer symbol symbol-30px symbol-md-40px"
 data-kt-menu-trigger="click"
 data-kt-menu-attach="parent"
 data-kt-menu-placement="bottom-end"
 data-kt-menu-flip="bottom"
 >
 <img :src="user.avatar" alt="metronic" />
 </div>
 <KTUserMenu></KTUserMenu>
 <!--end::Menu-->
 </div>
 <!--end::User -->
 </div>
 <!--end::Toolbar wrapper-->
</template>


The structure is the same as in demo1


user
Lauris Stepanovs Author1 year ago

If you have the same structure as it is in Metronic 8 then you should have only one instance in the Topbar component. In which file do you use your second KTUserMenu component instance?

KTUserMenu is imported only in Topbar.vue

here the complete component Topbar.vue:

Hi,

Right now the same event will be triggered when you click on main menu on all submenus.

If you need to execute your code only on main menu show event, you can do the following changes.


  1. Open MenuComponent.ts

  2. Find _showDropdown() function.

  3. Move sub menu variable declaration on top of the function const sub = this._getItemSubElement(item).

  4. Update if statement as shown below.

    if (EventHandlerUtil.trigger(this.element, "kt.menu.dropdown.show", sub) === false) {
     return
    }


  5. Update event trigger function 
    EventHandlerUtil.trigger(this.element, "kt.menu.dropdown.shown", sub)

  6. Then in your component you can update your event.


    7. toolbar?.on("kt.menu.dropdown.show", function (target) {
     if (target === toolbarElement) {
     console.log("show");
     }
    });
