Enable Sub-Menus for plugins

Post by phalek »

Hi,

For plugins it would be great to be able to also generate sub-menus like the "Graph Management". Unfortunately, the draw_menu code functions ( /lib/html.php) prevents this by doing the following:

Code: Select all

/* if the current page exists in the sub-items array, draw each sub-item */
if (array_key_exists(basename($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]), $item_title) == true) {
    $draw_sub_items = true;
}else{
    $draw_sub_items = false;
}
due to the usage of basename, it is not possible to have a menu like this:

Code: Select all

    $temp = array(
        "plugins/nmidPhpip/display.php" => array(
            "plugins/nmidPhpip/display.php" => "NMID phpIP",
            "plugins/nmidPhpip/cidr_add.php" => "CIDR Add",
            "plugins/nmidPhpip/cidr_remove.php" => "CIDR Remove",
            "plugins/nmidPhpip/cidr_desc.php" => "CIDR Description",
            "plugins/nmidPhpip/prefix_add.php" => "Prefix Add",
            "plugins/nmidPhpip/prefix_remove.php" => "Prefix Remove",
            "plugins/nmidPhpip/prefix_desc.php" => "Prefix Description",
            "plugins/nmidPhpip/subnetSummary.php" => "Subnet Summary",
            ),
    );

	if (isset($menu["NMID"]))
		$menu["NMID"] = array_merge($temp, $menu["NMID"]);
	else
		$menu["NMID"] = $temp;

can it be changed to something like ( only works with 0.8.7b ):

Code: Select all

$current_url = preg_replace("/(^\/(cacti\/)?)()/","$3",$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]);

if (array_key_exists($current_url, $item_title) == true) {
		$draw_sub_items = true;
}else{
		$draw_sub_items = false;
}


so plugins can also use sub-menus ? This would make the menu to the left more user-friendly.
