ContextMenuContainer

Native context menu for any MAUI and Xamarin.Forms view. Supports Windows, Android, iOS and macOS.

iOS	Android	macOs	Windows

How to use

1. Add namespace to your XAML file xmlns:apes="http://apes.ge"
2. Add following line of code to your App.xaml.cs in order to preserve component during linking and resolve our namespace schema in XAML

    APES.UI.XF.ContextMenuContainer.Init();

3. Extra step for UWP: add our assembly to Xamarin.Forms external assemblies in your UWP App.xaml.cs

    using System.Reflection;
    ...
    var extraAssemblies = new List<Assembly>();
    extraAssemblies.Add(typeof(APES.UI.XF.ContextMenuContainer).GetTypeInfo().Assembly);
    Xamarin.Forms.Forms.Init(e, extraAssemblies);

4. Wrap your view with ContextMenuContainer, define your context actions inline or bind from your ViewModel

//Inline
<apes:ContextMenuContainer x:Name="ActionsInline">
    <apes:ContextMenuContainer.MenuItems>
        <apes:ContextMenuItem Text="My action" 
                Command="{Binding MyCommand}" 
                CommandParameter="{Binding .}" />
        <apes:ContextMenuItem Text="My destructive action" 
                Command="{Binding MyDestructiveCommand}" 
                CommandParameter="{Binding .}" 
                IsDestructive="True" 
                Icon="{Binding DestructiveIconSource}"/>
    </apes:ContextMenuContainer.MenuItems>
    <apes:ContextMenuContainer.Content>
        <Label Text="Hold me!"/>
    </apes:ContextMenuContainer.Content>
</apes:ContextMenuContainer>
//From binding
<apes:ContextMenuContainer x:Name="ContextActionsWithBinding" 
                            MenuItems="{Binding ImageContextItems}">
    <apes:ContextMenuContainer.Content>
        <Frame>
            <Image Source="{Binding IconSource}"/>
        </Frame>
    </apes:ContextMenuContainer.Content>
</apes:ContextMenuContainer>

Icons

Cross-platform icons are really messy at this point, but you can put your assets to the coresponding folder on each platform and then bind to a FileIconImageSource from your ViewModel. Please refer to the sample folder for example. SVG is preferable.

Known issues

• Using it in a ViewCell template of ListView might lead to issues with recognizing tap/select events from the list itself, so you might consider using TapGestureRecognizer on the template instead

To-Do

• Configure build scripts
• Refactor MAUI initialization
• Add visibility property
• Add highlight property
• Add support for shortcuts
• Add support of accessability features
• Add support for submenus and separators
• Add font icons
• Cover it all with tests
