Chapter 3. Menu configuration

Unlike routing, menu configuration is automatically loaded for each modules. A menu is only able to add new entries to the admin menu.

To do that, you will need to create a file called menu.yaml in the directory Resources/config/ of your module. Here is an example to add a new menu item to add a link to your module:

{% code-tabs %} {% code-tabs-item title="Resources/config/menu.yaml" %}

admin_menu:
  tree:
    acme_test:
      label: 'Acme test'
      extras: { icon: 'fab fa-font-awesome' }
      route: 'acme_test_module_index'

{% endcode-tabs-item %} {% endcode-tabs %}

{% hint style="info" %} An icon can be added for each menu item, like in the above example.
You should use icons provided by the Font Awesome library and available at the next url: https://fontawesome.com/icons {% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %} For more information on how to configure a menu, see the Menu Configuration reference. {% endhint %}
