jQuery NavBar Options

accessKey
The value of this property will be passed to the accesskey
attribute of the HTML element that underlies the UI component.
dataSource
Array<String | dxTabsItem | any>
| | | | nullThe NavBar works with collections of string
values or objects.
Depending on your data source, bind the NavBar to data as follows. If the data source provides objects, also specify the itemTemplate. You can skip this part if the objects contain fields described in the items section.
Data Array
Assign the array to the dataSource option.Read-Only Data in JSON Format
Set the dataSource property to the URL of a JSON file or service that returns JSON data.OData
Implement an ODataStore.Web API, PHP, MongoDB
Use one of the following extensions to enable the server to process data according to the protocol DevExtreme UI components use:Then, use the createStore method to configure access to the server on the client as shown below. This method is part of DevExtreme.AspNet.Data.
jQuery
JavaScript$(function() { let serviceUrl = "https://url/to/my/service"; $("#navBarContainer").dxNavBar({ // ... dataSource: DevExpress.data.AspNet.createStore({ key: "ID", loadUrl: serviceUrl + "/GetAction", insertUrl: serviceUrl + "/InsertAction", updateUrl: serviceUrl + "/UpdateAction", deleteUrl: serviceUrl + "/DeleteAction" }) }) });

Any other data source
Implement a CustomStore.
Regardless of the data source on the input, the NavBar always wraps it in the DataSource object. This object allows you to sort, filter, group, and perform other data shaping operations. To get its instance, call the getDataSource() method.
Review the following notes about data binding:
Do not specify the items property if you specified the dataSource, and vice versa.
Data field names cannot be equal to
this
and should not contain the following characters:.
,:
,[
, and]
.
jQuery
- The stores are immutable. You cannot change their configurations at runtime. Instead, create a new store or DataSource and assign it to the dataSource property as shown in the following help topic: Get and Set Properties.
Angular
- The stores are immutable. You cannot change their configurations at runtime. Instead, create a new store or DataSource and assign it to the dataSource property as shown in the following help topic: Two-Way Property Binding.
Vue
- The stores are immutable. You cannot change their configurations at runtime. Instead, create a new store or DataSource and assign it to the dataSource property as shown in the following help topic: Two-Way Property Binding.
React
- The stores are immutable. You cannot change their configurations at runtime. Instead, create a new store or DataSource and assign it to the dataSource property as shown in the following help topic: Controlled Mode.
elementAttr
Specifies the global attributes to be attached to the UI component's container element.
jQuery
$(function(){ $("#navBarContainer").dxNavBar({ // ... elementAttr: { id: "elementId", class: "class-name" } }); });
Angular
<dx-nav-bar ... [elementAttr]="{ id: 'elementId', class: 'class-name' }"> </dx-nav-bar>
import { DxNavBarModule } from "devextreme-angular"; // ... export class AppComponent { // ... } @NgModule({ imports: [ // ... DxNavBarModule ], // ... })
Vue
<template> <DxNavBar ... :element-attr="navBarAttributes"> </DxNavBar> </template> <script> import DxNavBar from 'devextreme-vue/nav-bar'; export default { components: { DxNavBar }, data() { return { navBarAttributes: { id: 'elementId', class: 'class-name' } } } } </script>

height
This property accepts a value of one of the following types:
Number
The height in pixels.String
A CSS-accepted measurement of height. For example,"55px"
,"20vh"
,"80%"
,"inherit"
.Function (deprecated since v21.2)
Refer to the W0017 warning description for information on how you can migrate to viewport units.
items[]
Array<String | dxTabsItem | any>
The items array can contain:
- Strings
- Objects with fields described in this section
- Objects with any other fields. In this case, specify the itemTemplate.
If you need to update the UI component items, reassign the entire items array as shown in the following example:
navBarInstance.option('items', newItems);
As an alternative to items, you can use the dataSource property. It accepts the DataSource object, whose underlying stores provide an API that allows you to update individual items without reassigning the entire item collection.
keyExpr
Specifies the key property that provides key values to access data items. Each key value must be unique.
noDataText
The NavBar component evaluates the noDataText property's value. This evaluation, however, makes the NavBar potentially vulnerable to XSS attacks. To guard against these attacks, encode the HTML markup before you assign it to the noDataText property. Refer to the following help topic for more information: Potentially Vulnerable API - noDataText.
