Context navigation component

A contextual navigation component is available in Volto, but it needs to be integrated with your own website. To use it, customize any appropriate Volto theme component (for example App.jsx or DefaultView.jsx) and insert the ContextNavigation component:

import ContextNavigation from '@plone/volto/components/theme/Navigation/ContextNavigation'

// and insert it like:

<ContextNavigation params={{includeTop: true}} />

// or:
<ContextNavigation params={{ currentFolderOnly: true }} />

By default it uses the current location path to fetch the portlet listing, but you can compute and pass a custom path like:

<ContextNavigation pathname="/my-section" params={{ currentFolderOnly: true }} />

As parameters you can use:

• name: The title of the navigation tree.

• root_path: Root Node.js path, can be "frontend path", derived from router

• includeTop: Bool, Include top nodeschema

• currentFolderOnly: Bool, Only show the contents of the current folder.

• topLevel: Int, Start level

• bottomLevel: Int, Navigation tree depth

• no_icons: Bool, Suppress Icons

• thumb_scale: String, Override thumb scale

• no_thumbs: Bool, Suppress thumbs

Notice the similarity to the classic Plone navigation portlet, as the plone.restapi implementation is based on that original code.
