I am currently working on a project in ReactJs that includes a sidebar with dropdown menu functionality.
Desired Outcome
When I click on an option in the sidebar that has a submenu, it should display that submenu and close upon another click.
Current Issue
At the moment, clicking on any option shows all submenus simultaneously. For instance, selecting "Publications" displays both featured publications and journal publications options at once. How can I resolve this?
The array containing sidebar items
const sidebarItems = [
{
title: "Publications",
url: "#",
subMenu: [
{
title: "Journal Publications",
url: "#",
},
{
title: "Featured Publications",
url: "#",
},
],
},
{
title: "Team Members",
url: "#",
subMenu: [
{
title: "Current Members",
url: "#",
},
{
title: "Lab Alumni",
url: "#",
},
],
},
{
title: "Projects",
url: "#",
subMenu: [
{
title: "Project 1",
url: "#",
},
{
title: "Project 2",
url: "#",
},
{
title: "Project 3",
url: "#",
},
],
},
{
title: "News",
url: "#",
},
{
title: "Contact Us",
url: "#",
},
];
export default sidebarItems;
The Sidebar Component
import { useState } from "react";
import { Box, Text } from "@chakra-ui/react";
import sidebarItems from "./sidebarItems";
export default function Sidebar() {
const [isOpen, setIsOpen] = useState(false);
return (
<div>
<Box>
{sidebarItems.map((items) => {
return (
<Box
width='200px'
height='40px'
textAlign='center'
cursor='pointer'
onClick={() => {
setIsOpen(!isOpen);
}}
>
<Text>{items.title}</Text>
{isOpen
? items.subMenu?.map((item) => {
return <Text>{item.title}</Text>;
})
: ""}
</Box>
);
})}
</Box>
</div>
);
}
