Concise code to simply add an item to the side menu? O_o

Support
#1

(Jmix 1.7.x)

I’m trying to implement a simple “user favorite screens” feature, and insert these into the top of the side menu on login. Digging into the Jmix source, this is not as easy as one would hope. There are two MenuItem classes and such, and I’m hoping someone has done this and can just post some concise code to add a simple item to the side menu that opens a screen say a-screen-01 with caption “Test Screen.”

Hi,

SideMenu itself provides createMenuItem methods, e.g.:

@Subscribe
public void onInit(final InitEvent event) {
    SideMenu.MenuItem customMenuItem = sideMenu.createMenuItem("customMenuItem1", "Custom Menu Item", null, menuItem -> {
        screenBuilders.screen(this)
                .withScreenClass(UserBrowse.class)
                .show();
    });
    sideMenu.addMenuItem(customMenuItem, 0);
}

Regards,
