Check out the v4 to v5 Migration Guide for more information around updating code to this major version.

This release focused on creating a new Menu API that should hopefully make menus easier to use along with some other new features. The main difference is that the DropdownMenu no longer accepts a list of items that get converted to MenuItems behind the scenes. Instead, the children of the DropdownMenu should be all the MenuItem components that should be used inside the menu. The main reason for this change is to make it easier to create reusable components for different actions within your app and no longer needed to disable the React eslint rule around missing keys.

Another notable change is that nested dropdown menus no longer require the DropdownMenuItem component and instead the DropdownMenu automatically renders as a <li> if it appears as a child of another Menu component.

Here's a quick example of migrating to the new DropdownMenu API:

 import type { ReactElement } from "react";
-import { DropdownMenu, DropdownMenuItem } from "@react-md/menu";
+import { DropdownMenu, MenuItem } from "@react-md/menu";

 export default function Example(): ReactElement (
-  <DropdownMenu
-    id="example-dropdown-menu"
-    items={[
-      { onClick: () => console.log("Clicked Item 1"), children: "Item 1" },
-      { onClick: () => console.log("Clicked Item 2"), children: "Item 2" },
-      { onClick: () => console.log("Clicked Item 3"), children: "Item 3" },
-      <DropdownMenuItem
-        id="nested-dropdown-menu"
-        items={["Subitem 1", "Subitem 2", "Subitem 3"]}
-      >
-        Submenu
-      </DropdownMenuItem>,
-    ]}
-  >
-    Dropdown
+  <DropdownMenu id="example-dropdown-menu" buttonChildren="Dropdown">
+    <MenuItem onClick={() => console.log("Clicked Item 1")}>Item 1</MenuItem>
+    <MenuItem onClick={() => console.log("Clicked Item 2")}>Item 2</MenuItem>
+    <MenuItem onClick={() => console.log("Clicked Item 3")}>Item 3</MenuItem>
+    <DropdownMenu
+      id="nested-dropdown-menu"
+      buttonChildren="Submenu"
+    >
+      <MenuItem>Subitem 1</MenuItem>
+      <MenuItem>Subitem 2</MenuItem>
+      <MenuItem>Subitem 3</MenuItem>
+    </DropdownMenu>
   </DropdownMenu>
 );

On top of the new API, two major new features have been integrated into this release:

Hoverable Menus

Menus can now act like a browser's bookmark folder behavior where the user must click one of the dropdowns before all other menus become immediately visible on hover by using the new MenuBar component. This also implements some new keyboard movement behavior matching the menubar spec.

If the first-click behavior is undesired, the MenuBar also accepts a hoverTimeout prop which can be set to 0 to make the menus appear immediately on hover or another time in milliseconds to wait before the "hover mode" behavior should begin.

Check out the Hoverable Menus demo for more information.

Conditionally Rendering Menus within a Sheet

Since menus aren't always ideal for small viewports, the DropdownMenu has been updated to conditionally rendering the Menu within a Sheet instead of being positioned relative to the Button element. This feature is opt-in by either:

  • Adding menuConfiguration={{ renderAsSheet: "phone" }} on the Configuration component from @react-md/layout
  • Wrapping a DropdownMenu in the MenuConfigurationProvider and adding a prop renderAsSheet="phone"
  • Directly on a DropdownMenu with the renderAsSheet="phone" prop

The Sheet will default to rendering at the bottom of the viewport and have a max height that should allow the user to close the menu by clicking the overlay behind the sheet. These defaults can be configured with the sheetPosition and sheetVerticalSize props.

The Sheet can also be configured to have an optional header and footer using the sheetHeader and sheetFooter props. If all else fails, the DropdownMenu accepts sheetProps which will be passed to the Sheet component.

Check out the Mobile Action Sheets demo for more information.

Breaking Changes

  • DEFAULT_HOVER_MODE_STICKY_EXIT_TIME has been renamed to DEFAULT_HOVER_MODE_EXIT_TIME.
  • Menu buttons will no longer open by pressing the ArrowUp or ArrowDown keys.
  • The DropdownMenu component no longer accepts a list of items and instead the children should be the MenuItem components.
  • The DropdownMenu component no longer supports the menuRenderer and itemRenderer props. Instead, there is built-in support for conditionally rendering as a Sheet component using the renderAsSheet prop.
  • The DropdownMenu component now requires a parent AppSizeListener because of the conditional Sheet rendering functionality. This might require updating your tests to either use the Configuration component from @react-md/layout (recommended) or adding the AppSizeListener to tests that include DropdownMenus.
  • The DropdownMenuItem component is no longer required for nested dropdown menus and is an "internal" component instead that shouldn't really be used.
  • The exitVisibilityDelay always defaults to DEFAULT_HOVER_MODE_EXIT_TIME.
  • The MenuItemSeparator now renders as an <li> instead of an <hr> or <div>.
  • The useContextMenu now returns an object instead of an ordered list.
  • The useHoverMode hook no longer accepts an HTMLElement generic and instead the event handlers will automatically infer the HTMLElement based on usage.
  • The useHoverMode hook no longer returns stickyHandlers and instead returns hoverHandlers that only include onMouseEnter and onMouseLeave. The handlers that are returned now include onClick, onMouseEnter, and onMouseLeave. This was kind of what the stickyHandlers was before. In addition, clicking an element no longer disabled the hover mode behavior.
  • The following typescript types have been removed: HoverModeOnlyOptions, HoverModeOnlyReturnValue
  • Using any of the MenuItem components requires the <MenuKeyboardFocusProvider> to be mounted as a parent component which might affect tests. This will not break anything if you are using the DropdownMenu or Menu components.
