Setting global property attaches the context menu to the document.
<ContextMenu :global="true" :model="items" />
ContextMenu is attached to a custom element manually using the reference and calling the show(event) method.
<img alt="logo" src="/images/nature/nature3.jpg" @contextmenu="onImageRightClick">
<ContextMenu ref="menu" :model="items" />
export default {
data() {
return {
items: //items
}
},
methods: {
onImageRightClick(event) {
this.$refs.menu.show(event);
}
}
}
ContextMenu offers content customization with the item template that receives the menuitem instance from the model as a parameter.
<ContextMenu :model="items">
<template #item="{item}">
<a :href="item.url">{{item.label}}</a>
</template>
</ContextMenu>
router-link with route configuration can also be used within templating for further customization.
<ContextMenu :model="items">
<template #item="{item}">
<router-link :to="item.to" custom v-slot="{href, route, navigate, isActive, isExactActive}">
<a :href="href" @click="navigate" :class="{'active-link': isActive, 'active-link-exact": isExactActive}>{{route.fullPath}}</a>
</router-link>
</template>
</ContextMenu>

ContextMenu component uses the menubar role with aria-orientation set to "vertical" and the value to describe the menu can either be provided with aria-labelledby or aria-label props. Each list item has a menuitem role with aria-label referring to the label of the item and aria-disabled defined if the item is disabled. A submenu within a ContextMenu uses the menu role with an aria-labelledby defined as the id of the submenu root menuitem label. In addition, menuitems that open a submenu have aria-haspopup, aria-expanded and aria-controls to define the relation between the item and the submenu.
