Creating programmatic menus using the MenuModel API


PrimeNG provides a MenuModel API, which will be shared by all menu components to specify menu items and sub-menus. The core item of the MenuModel API is the MenuItem class with options such as label, icon, url, child menu items with the items option, and so on.

Let's take an example of the Menu component to represent a common toolbar user interface. The Menu component is binding an array of the MenuItem classes as items through the model property as follows:

<p-menu [model]="items"></p-menu>

MenuItem is the key item in the MenuModel API. It has the following list of properties. Each property is described with the type, default value, and its description:

Name

label
