Analysis

Overview

Create a menu library that allows plugins to add menus and menu items. The library should have an extension point that allows a plugin to register itself and be queried for menus and menu items.

Task requirements

• Create a module for menubars, menus and menu items
• Allow for extension point so plugins can register menu items in menus
• Menubars should sort menus by the sort key
• Refactor menu creation code in org.sophie2.main.view.menus APP_BASIC_MENUS_R0
• Document the new library

Task result

The result shall be code and unit tests

Implementation idea

• Menus might have a sort key that allows menus to be sorted within a menu bar
• Menu items might have a sort key that allows menu items to be sorted within a menu bar
• The sort key could be a simple string. This will allow us to define a protocol for sorting in an initial pass of the code, and make the menu organization more sophisticated later.

How to demo

• Show the documentation for the menu library
• Show how to create a menu, menu item and register them through the extension point
