## Overview

The `useContextMenu` hook is meant to be used in conjunction with `Menu` (see this [component's documentation](http://localhost:3000/?path=/docs/experimental-unstable-menu--playground) for more details). It provides an easy way to generate the necessary props for `Menu`.

By default, it will listen to the `contextmenu` event on `document`. In most cases you'll want to restrict a context menu to a certain element or group of elements only. You can pass that element as the argument for `useContextMenu`.

```jsx
function SomeComponent() {
const el = useRef(null);
const menuProps = useContextMenu(el);

return (
<>
<div ref={el}>
</div>

<Menu {...menuProps}>
<MenuItem label="Cut" />
<MenuItem label="Copy" />
<MenuItem label="Paste" />
</Menu>
</>
);
}
```

Be aware that the following props are not set by `useContextMenu` and can therefore be configured by the user:
- className
- label
- size
- target

## Component API

```js
// returns an object with 'x', 'y', 'open' and 'onClose' set accordingly intended
// to be passed as pros to the <Menu> component.
const menuProps = useContextMenu(
// the DOM element or react ref the "contextmenu" event should be attached to.
// defaults to document.
trigger,
);
```

## Overview

`Menu` is a versatile component that can be used in a variety of situations. It implements the [menu design pattern](https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/patterns/menubar/) defined in the ARIA Authoring Practices Guide (APG).

The `Menu` component's `children` must be a collection of any of these subcomponents:
- [MenuItem](#menuitem)
- [MenuItemDivider](#menuitemdivider)
- [MenuItemGroup](#menuitemgroup)
- [MenuItemSelectable](#menuitemselectable)
- [MenuItemRadioGroup](#menuitemradiogroup)

## Positioning

You must provide a reference point for the `Menu` to position itself at. The props `x` and `y` either accept a single number each or an array of two numbers.

The latter option is used to specify the trigger boundaries. For example, Carbon uses this for the [OverflowMenuV2](http://localhost:3000/?path=/story/experimental-unstable-overflowmenuv2--overflow-menu-v-2) where it passes `[x, x + width]` and `[y, y + height]` of the trigger button. This way, the `Menu` is able to automatically determine its ideal position on the screen (which side to open at and in which direction) while always staying visually attached to the trigger.
Each `MenuItem` that has `children` and therfore a submenu uses the same approach under the hood to correctly position the submenu.

## Subcomponents

### MenuItem

A `MenuItem` renders a basic menu item with a label an optionally a shortcut hint (_note: the component only renders this hint and doesn't actually register the shortcut in the browser_). Each `MenuItem` can be clicked unless it's marked as `disabled`. If it triggers a destructive action, you can pass it `kind="danger"` to highlight it specially on hover and focus.

```jsx
<Menu>
<MenuItem label="Copy" shortcut="⌘C" />
<MenuItem label="Paste" shortcut="⌘V" disabled />
<MenuItem label="Delete" kind="danger" />
</Menu>
```
In order to render a submenu, you can pass any of the above mentioned subcomponents as `children` of a `MenuItem`.
```jsx
<Menu>
<MenuItem label="Open" />
<MenuItem label="Save" />
<MenuItem label="Import">
<MenuItem label="Image">
<MenuItem label="Movie">
<MenuItem label="Text">
</MenuItem>
</Menu>
```

### MenuItemDivider

The `MenuItemDivider` renders a thin dividing line, visually separating menu items. Use this to enhance grouping of related items.

```jsx
<Menu>
<MenuItem label="Cut" />
<MenuItem label="Copy" />
<MenuItem label="Paste" />
<MenuItemDivider />
<MenuItem label="Delete" kind="danger" />
</Menu>
```

### MenuItemGroup

You can logically group multiple menu items by wrapping them inside a `MenuItemGroup`. This doesn't affect the visual rendering but can tremendously improve the experience for assistive technology users. You'll always want to use a `MenuItemGroup` if you have multiple [`MenuItemSelectable`](#menuitemselectable) that are relatd to each other.

### MenuItemSelectable

`MenuItemSelectable` is a checkbox in a menu context. Each `MenuItemSelectable` can be checked and unchecked unrelated to other items. If multiple items are related to each other, you'll want to wrap them in a `MenuItemGroup` for improved accessibility.

```jsx
<Menu>
<MenuItemGroup label="Font style">
<MenuItemSelectable label="Bold" selected />
<MenuItemSelectable label="Italic" />
</MenuItemGroup>
</Menu>
```

### MenuItemRadioGroup
`MenuItemRadioGroup` is a radio button group in a menu context. Only one item can be selected at a time. The component automatically wraps itself in a `MenuItemGroup`, so you won't have to nest it manually.

```jsx
<Menu>
<MenuItemRadioGroup
label="Font family"
items={[
'Sans',
'Serif',
'Mono',
]}
selectedItem="Sans"
/>
<MenuItemDivider />
<MenuItemRadioGroup
label="Text decoration"
items={[
'None',
'Overline',
'Line-through',
'Underline',
]}
selectedItem="None"
/>
</Menu>
```

The `items` prop is designed to accept arbitrary items to best match your data structure. If you pass your items as anything that doesn't support `.toString()` out of the box, you'll need to pass a custom `itemToString` function that will be used for rendering the labels.

```jsx
const items = [
{ weight: 100, label: 'Thin' },
{ weight: 200, label: 'Extralight' },
{ weight: 300, label: 'Light' },
{ weight: 400, label: 'Regular' },
{ weight: 500, label: 'Medium' },
{ weight: 600, label: 'Semibold' },
{ weight: 700, label: 'Bold' },
];

<MenuItemRadioGroup
label="Font weight"
items={items}
selectedItem={items[3]}
itemToString={(item) => item.label}
/>
```

## Context menu (right-click menu)

The `Menu` component is suited to be used as a context menu for complex web applications. To make this easy, Carbon provides a [`useContextMenu`](http://localhost:3000/?path=/story/experimental-unstable-usecontextmenu--use-context-menu) react hook. Please refer to the [hook's documentation](http://localhost:3000/?path=/docs/experimental-unstable-usecontextmenu--use-context-menu) for more details.
