ReactJS Evergreen Menu Component

React Evergreen is a popular front-end library with a set of React components for building beautiful products as this library is flexible, sensible defaults, and User friendly. Menu Component allows the user to show a list of actions that the user can take. We can use the following approach in ReactJS to use the Evergreen Menu Component.

Menu Props:

  • children: It is used to denote the children of the menu component.

MenuDivider Props: This does not take any props.

MenuGroup Props:

  • title: It is used to denote the title of the menu group.
  • children: It is used to denote the children of the menu group.

 

MenuItem Props:

  • is: It is used to denote the element type to use for the menu item.
  • className: It is used to pass the class name to the component.
  • onSelect: It is a function that is triggered on the click and enter/space keypress.
  • icon: It is used to define the custom icon or the Evergreen icon before the label.
  • children: It is used to denote the children of the component.
  • secondaryText: It is used to denote the secondary text shown on the right.
  • appearance: The default theme supports only one default appearance.
  • intent: It is used to denote the intent of the Menu item.
  • disabled: It is used to indicate whether the menu item is disabled or not.

MenuOption Props:

  • id: It is used to denote the id attribute of the menu option.
  • onSelect: It is a function that is triggered on the click and enter/space keypress.
  • isSelected: It is used to denote the icon before the label.

  • appearance: The default theme supports only one default appearance.

MenuOptionGroup Props:

  • selected: It is used to denote the current value of the option group.
  • onChange: It is a callback function that is called when selection changes.
  • options: It is used to denote the list of options rendered in the group.
