Adding items to the application menu ↩
Create a menu from callbacks
It is possible to create menu items for functions in your code. You only need to pass a list of tuples (menu item string, function identifier) to the MenuBuilder class constructor. Check the following example:
from mojo.UI import MenuBuilder
def foo(sender):
print(sender.title())
if __name__ == '__main__':
menu = MenuBuilder(menu="main",
title="bar",
insert=5,
items=[("foo1", foo),
("foo2", foo)]
)
Create a menu from a folder with scripts
The MenuBuilder class has the useful method .addMenuFromPath() for adding a folder of python scripts to the application menu
from mojo.UI import MenuBuilder
folderPath = 'folderWithScripts'
if __name__ == '__main__':
menu = MenuBuilder(menu="main", title="test")
menu.addMenuFromPath(folderPath)
Both snippets can be set as startup scripts from the application preferences menu
