Class TouchBarNavRenderer

java.lang.Object

org.vaadin.addons.joelpop.appnavlayout.ui.layout.appnav.TouchBarNavRenderer

All Implemented Interfaces:

NavRenderer

public class TouchBarNavRenderer
extends Object

Default NavRenderer for NavType.TOUCH — a bottom icon bar in NavSlots.touchBar(), with a "More" overflow trigger when more root sections exist than fit, plus a drill-down bar in NavSlots.headerNav() for nested routes, however deep they go.

Override createOverflowComponent(List, Button, Map) to replace what's shown in response to tapping the "More" trigger (e.g. a Dialog) while keeping everything else unchanged.

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
protected com.vaadin.flow.component.button.Button	createNavButton(com.vaadin.flow.component.Component content, Class<? extends com.vaadin.flow.component.Component> viewClass)	Builds a nav-bar item Button wrapping content, and navigating to viewClass on click (or doing nothing on click if null — the "More" overflow trigger has no route of its own).
protected com.vaadin.flow.component.Component	createOverflowComponent(List<com.vaadin.flow.server.menu.MenuEntry> overflowEntries, com.vaadin.flow.component.button.Button overflowTrigger, Map<NavNode, com.vaadin.flow.component.button.Button> overflowButtonsOut)	Creates the overflow-triggering component shown alongside the "More" bar item — default: a Popover listing the overflowing entries.
NavType	navType()	The chrome this renderer requires — determines which NavStrategy gets built for whichever scenario this renderer is configured for.
protected com.vaadin.flow.component.HasComponents	primarySlot(NavSlots slots)	Returns the location this renderer's primary bar belongs in — NavSlots.sideRail() or NavSlots.touchBar(), depending on the concrete subclass.
void	render(NavRenderContext context)	Builds or updates this renderer's content for the current nav state.

Method Details

primarySlot

protected com.vaadin.flow.component.HasComponents primarySlot(NavSlots slots)

Returns the location this renderer's primary bar belongs in — NavSlots.sideRail() or NavSlots.touchBar(), depending on the concrete subclass.

navType

public NavType navType()

Description copied from interface: NavRenderer

The chrome this renderer requires — determines which NavStrategy gets built for whichever scenario this renderer is configured for. Not a free choice: a renderer's NavRenderer.render(NavRenderContext) implementation already assumes one specific NavSlots accessor is live (e.g. SideRailNavRenderer only ever populates NavSlots.sideRail()), and that slot is only live under the matching NavType's strategy. This method makes that assumption explicit instead of leaving it to silently mismatch — a renderer configured for a scenario whose resolved chrome doesn't match its own navType() would otherwise render into a slot that's never attached to the page, with nothing to indicate why.

render

public void render(NavRenderContext context)

Description copied from interface: NavRenderer

Builds or updates this renderer's content for the current nav state. Called once when this scenario becomes active, again on every completed navigation, and again whenever nav configuration changes (grouper swap, path matcher change). The implementation decides which slot(s) in context.slots() to populate and how — including any overflow or drill-down scaffolding it needs (a "More…" popover, a chevron, a swipeable container, etc).

createNavButton

protected com.vaadin.flow.component.button.Button createNavButton(com.vaadin.flow.component.Component content,
 Class<? extends com.vaadin.flow.component.Component> viewClass)

Builds a nav-bar item Button wrapping content, and navigating to viewClass on click (or doing nothing on click if null — the "More" overflow trigger has no route of its own).

Plain, borderless, transparent-background chrome comes from this add-on's own CSS (app-nav-layout.ts, keyed off the "overflow-nav-item" class a caller adds afterward), rendering correctly under any theme, or none at all. An .active item is left at the button's own plain default text color; the inactive state is forced to the muted secondary color in that same CSS.

Exposed (not just used internally by NavItem) so a createOverflowComponent(List, Button, Map) override that still wants per-entry buttons doesn't have to reimplement this wiring by hand — reuse this rather than constructing a Button directly.

createOverflowComponent

protected com.vaadin.flow.component.Component createOverflowComponent(List<com.vaadin.flow.server.menu.MenuEntry> overflowEntries,
 com.vaadin.flow.component.button.Button overflowTrigger,
 Map<NavNode, com.vaadin.flow.component.button.Button> overflowButtonsOut)

Creates the overflow-triggering component shown alongside the "More" bar item — default: a Popover listing the overflowing entries. Override to replace it with a different presentation shown in response to tapping the "More" trigger (e.g. a Dialog) while keeping bar layout, active highlighting, and header-nav delegation unchanged. Implementations that want the "More" item to highlight while one of their entries is active should populate overflowButtonsOut the same way this default does. If the replacement presentation still uses one button per entry, build them via createNavButton(Component, Class) rather than a plain new Button(...) to keep the same theme-adaptive active-color behavior.
