VijayAnand.MauiToolkit

This is a toolkit with a set of helper methods and classes to simplify working with .NET MAUI and Blazor.

Published as a NuGet package - VijayAnand.MauiToolkit

It depends on VijayAnand.MauiToolkit.Core NuGet package.

To start with, implements the concrete definition of the abstractions defined in Core package:

  • Dialogs - DialogService (works with MainPage or Shell definition)
    • Additional abstraction specific to .NET MAUI with FlowDirection
  • Navigation - NavigationService (based on Shell Navigation pattern)
  • Share - ShareService (based on Maui Essentials)
  • Theme - ThemeService (based on UserAppTheme property)

And includes a set of Markup extension methods for rapid application development with C#.

These fluent APIs are made available in the VijayAnand.MauiToolkit.Markup namespace.

Most importantly, provides an extension method to register these services in .NET MAUI host builder startup:

UseVijayAnandMauiToolkit()

Now it's possible to selectively register the services required into the DI container.

Added a configuration parameter of Enum type ServiceRegistrations (Flags-attributed) to the UseVijayAnandMauiToolkit() method.

To illustrate with a sample, if only interested in NavigationService:

Then, invoke UseVijayAnandMauiToolkit(ServiceRegistrations.Navigation).

And if DialogService is required along with NavigationService:

Then, invoke UseVijayAnandMauiToolkit(ServiceRegistrations.Dialogs | ServiceRegistrations.Navigation).

By default, the default value of configuration parameter is set to ServiceRegistrations.All.

Usage:

public static class MauiProgram
{
    public static MauiApp CreateMauiApp()
    {
        var builder = MauiApp.CreateBuilder();
        builder.UseMauiApp<App>()
               .UseVijayAnandMauiToolkit(); // Implicit value of ServiceRegistrations.All passed as configuration parameter
        return builder.Build();
    }
}

What's new in ver. 1.0.2-pre2:

Fix on top of the earlier preview release.

Added a new Markup Method, named AddSubMenuGroup, to define a sub-menu group within a menu group to manage the multi-level menu.

Here is an example of a sub-menu group:

"Change Location" is a first level menu group (under the "Locations" top level menu item) and "India" is a second level menu group within that.

This way multi-level menu can be defined.

MenuBarItems.Add(new MenuBarItem().Title("Locations")
                                 .AddMenuGroup(new MenuFlyoutSubItem().Title("Change Location")
                                                                      .AddSubMenuItem(new MenuFlyoutItem().Title("New York, USA"))
                                                                      .AddSubMenuItem(new MenuFlyoutItem().Title("London, UK"))
                                                                      .AddSubMenuItem(new MenuFlyoutItem().Title("Cape Town, RSA"))
                                                                      .AddSubMenuItem(new MenuFlyoutItem().Title("Beijing, PRC"))
                                                                      .AddSubMenuGroup(new MenuFlyoutSubItem().Title("India")
                                                                                                              .AddSubMenuItem(new MenuFlyoutItem().Title("Chennai, TN"))
                                                                                                              .AddSubMenuItem(new MenuFlyoutItem().Title("Kolkata, WB"))
                                                                                                              .AddSubMenuItem(new MenuFlyoutItem().Title("Mumbai, MH"))
                                                                                                              .AddSubMenuItem(new MenuFlyoutItem().Title("New Delhi, NCR"))))
                                 .AddMenuItem(new MenuFlyoutItem().Title("Add a Location").BindCommand("AddLocationCommand")));
