Rendering

To render the configured navigation the plugin uses renderers. You can use one of the built-in renderers or you can even provide your own renderer if you like.

The main method to render your navigation in the view is render_navigation. To tell the plugin which renderer to use you can

• set the renderer in the config/navigation.rb file, or
• specify the renderer in the render_navigation call

If you don’t specify a renderer explicitly the plugin uses the list renderer by default, which renders the navigation as an html list.

Read on to render the navigation as

• Html list
• breadcrumbs
• link list
