Reference sample: restaurant menu

The CMS Questions
1

Hi there,

I’ve been wracking my brain tonight trying to figure out how to display the restaurant menu inside my template.
Here you can see the blueprint sample.

<?php

$dishes = $pages->listed();

if($dishes->isNotEmpty()):

?>

    <?php foreach($dishes as $dish): ?>
    <?= $dish->url() ?>">
    <?= $dish->title()->html() ?>

    <?php endforeach ?>
<?php endif ?>

Can someone help me?

During the development of Kirby 3 there was a template, that you can use or change to your needs:

<?php snippet('header') ?>

<main class="restaurant-menu">
  <?php snippet('intro') ?>

  <?php foreach ($categories as $category): ?>
  <section class="dishes">
    <h2><?= $category ?></h2>
    <?php foreach ($page->$category()->toStructure() as $dish): ?>
    <article class="dish">
      <h3 class="dish-name"><?= $dish->dish() ?></h3>
      <p class="dish-description"><?= $dish->description() ?></p>
      <p class="dish-price">€ <?= $dish->price() ?></p>
    </article>
    <?php endforeach ?>
  </section>
  <?php endforeach ?>

</main>

<?php snippet('footer') ?>

For this you need the controller file:

<?php

return function () {

    $categories = [
        'Starters',
        'Pasta',
        'Meat',
        'Desert'
    ];

    return [
        'categories' => $categories
    ];

};

The snippet intro.php looked like:

<header class="intro">
  <h1><?= $page->title() ?></h1>
  <?php if ($page->intro()->isNotEmpty()): ?>
  <div class="intro-text text">
    <?= $page->intro()->kt() ?></p>
  </div>
  <?php endif ?>
</header>

Thank you for you fast respons! Where do I need to place the controller file?

Place the controller file as site\controllers\menu.php, if your template is site\templates\menu.php.
The file names must be the same!

Thank you. You literally made my day!
Just another small question so that I learn from it. Where is the variable $dish coming from? Can’t find it.

    <?php foreach ($page->$category()->toStructure() as $dish): ?>

Thanks again!

It is defined in this line:

@texnixe:
Thanks for adding the answer of this problem (and more !!!) e.g. to Kirby 3 docs: Example controller and template.

[Added:]
I think you want to delete “&quot;” in front of the file names…
