Getting started in EJ2 JavaScript Sidebar control
25 Nov 202324 minutes to read
The Essential JS 2 for JavaScript (global script) is an ES5 formatted pure JavaScript framework which can be directly used in latest web browsers.
Component Initialization
Create an app folder myapp
in local machine to initialize Essential JS 2 JavaScript components.
Using either of the following way to refer the required script and styles.
- Using local script and style references in a HTML page.
- Using CDN link for script and style reference.
Using local script and style references in a HTML page
Step 1: Create an app folder myapp
for Essential JS 2 JavaScript components.
Step 2: You can get the global scripts and styles from the Essential Studio JavaScript (Essential JS 2) build installed location.
Syntax:
Script:
**(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\{PACKAGE_NAME}\dist\global\{PACKAGE_NAME}.min.js
Styles:
**(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\{PACKAGE_NAME}\styles\material.css
Example:
Script:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\16.3.0.17\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2-navigations\dist\global\ej2-navigations.min.js
Styles:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\16.3.0.17\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2-navigations\styles\material.css
The below located script and style file contains all Syncfusion JavaScript (ES5) UI control resources in a single file.
Scripts:
**(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2\dist\ej2.min.js
Styles:
**(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2\material.css
Step 3: Create a folder myapp/resources
and copy/paste the above mentioned packages from the above installed location to myapp/resources
location.
Step 4: Create a HTML page (index.html) in myapp
location and add the Essentials JS 2 script and style references.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Essential JS 2</title>
<!-- Essential JS 2 material theme -->
<link href="resources/material.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
<!-- Essential JS 2 Sidebar's global and dependent script -->
<script src="resources/ej2-base.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="resources/ej2-navigations.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
Step 5: Now, add the div
element and initiate the Essential JS 2 Sidebar
component in the index.html
by using following code
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Essential JS 2</title>
<!-- Essential JS 2 material theme -->
<link href="resources/material.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
<!-- Essential JS 2 Sidebar's global and dependent script -->
<script src="resources/ej2-base.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="resources/ej2-navigations.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<body>
<!-- Add the HTML <div> element -->
<div id='container'>
<aside id="default">
<div class="title"> Sidebar </div>
</aside>
<!-- end of sidebar element -->
<!-- main content declaration -->
<div>
<div class="title">Main content</div>
<div class="sub-title"> Content goes here</div>
</div>
</div>
<script>
// initialize Sidebar component
var defaultSidebar = new ej.navigations.Sidebar();
// Render initialized sidebar.
defaultSidebar.appendTo('#default')
</script>
</body>
</html>
Step 6: Now, run the index.html
in web browser, it will render the Essential JS 2 Sidebar component.
Using CDN link for script and style reference
Step 1: The Essential JS 2 components scripts and styles are already hosted in the below CDN link formats.
Syntax:
Script:
http://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/{PACKAGE_NAME}/dist/global/{PACKAGE_NAME}.min.js
Style:
http://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/{PACKAGE_NAME}/styles/material.css
Example:
Script:
http://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/ej2-navigations/dist/global/ej2-navigations.min.js
Styles:
http://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/ej2-navigations/styles/material.css
Step 2: Have to add CDN
global script and style for Sidebar and its dependent packages in myapp/index.html
like below.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Essential JS 2 Sidebar Component</title>
<!-- Sidebar and its dependent theme -->
<link href="http://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/ej2-base/styles/material.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<link href="http://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/ej2-navigations/styles/material.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<!-- Essential JS 2 Sidebar's global script -->
<script src="http://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/ej2-navigations/dist/global/ej2-navigations.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<body>
<!-- Add the HTML <div> element -->
<div id='container'>
<aside id="default">
<div class="title"> Sidebar </div>
</aside>
<!-- end of sidebar element -->
<!-- main content declaration -->
<div>
<div class="title">Main content</div>
<div class="sub-title"> Content goes here</div>
</div>
</div>
<script>
// initialize Sidebar component
var defaultSidebar = new ej.navigations.Sidebar();
// Render initialized sidebar.
defaultSidebar.appendTo('#default')
</script>
</body>
</html>
When referencing CDN links in application, always ensure the network connection will be in enabled state.
Enable backdrop
Enabling the showBackdrop
in the Sidebar component will prevent the main content from user interactions, when it is in expanded state.
Here, the DOM elements will not get changed. It only closes the main content by covering with a black backdrop overlay and focuses the Sidebar in the screen. Sidebar can be rendered with specific width by setting width
property.
NOTE
To achieve a proper backdrop, we suggest that you create a wrapper parent container for the div block in which you intend to enable the backdrop. Set the class name of this parent container as the target for the Sidebar. Alternatively, you can place an empty div container after the target container.
ej.base.enableRipple(true);
//sidebar initialization
var defaultSidebar = new ej.navigations.Sidebar({
showBackdrop: true,
type: "Push",
width: '280px'
});
defaultSidebar.appendTo('#default-sidebar');
//end of sidebar initialization
// Toggle(Open/Close) the sidebar
document.getElementById('toggle').onclick = function() {
defaultSidebar.toggle();
};
// Close the sidebar
document.getElementById('close').onclick = function() {
defaultSidebar.hide();
};
//end of sidebar initialization
// Toggle(Open/Close) the sidebar

Position
Positioning the Sidebar to the right or left of the main content can be achieved by using the position
property. If the position is not set, the Sidebar will expand from the left to the body element. enablePersistence
will persist the component’s state between page reloads. change
event will be triggered when the state(expand/collapse) of the component is changed.
ej.base.enableRipple(true);
//sidebar initialization
var defaultSidebar = new ej.navigations.Sidebar({
showBackdrop: true,
enablePersistence:true,
type: "Push",
width: '280px'
});
defaultSidebar.appendTo('#default-sidebar');
//end of Sidebar initialization
//toggle button initialization
var togglebtn = new ej.buttons.Button({iconCss: 'e-icons burg-icon', isToggle: true, content:'Open'}, '#toggle');

document.getElementById('toggle').onclick = function(){
if (document.getElementById('toggle').classList.contains('e-active')) {
togglebtn.content = 'Close';
defaultSidebar.show();
} else {
togglebtn.content = 'Open';
defaultSidebar.hide();
}
};
// Close the sidebar
document.getElementById('close').onclick = function() {

document.getElementById('toggle').classList.remove('e-active');
togglebtn.content = 'Open'
};
var positionLeft = new ej.buttons.RadioButton({ label: 'Left', name: 'state', checked: true,change:Change });
positionLeft.appendTo('#left');
//unchecked state
var positionRight = new ej.buttons.RadioButton({ label: 'Right', name: 'state',change:Change });
positionRight.appendTo('#right');
//change the position of the Sidebars
function Change(args){
defaultSidebar.position = (args.event.target.id == "left") ? "Left" : "Right";

Animate
Animation transitions can be set while expanding or collapsing the Sidebar using the animate
property. By default , animate
property is set to true. enableRTL
will display the sidebar in the right-to-left direction.
ej.base.enableRipple(true);
var defaultSidebar = new ej.navigations.Sidebar({
type: "Push",
width: '280px',
animate: false,
enableRtl: true
});
defaultSidebar.appendTo('#default-sidebar');
//end of Sidebar initialization
// Toggle(Open/Close) the sidebar
document.getElementById('toggle').onclick = function() {
defaultSidebar.toggle();
};
// Close the sidebar
document.getElementById('close').onclick = function() {
defaultSidebar.hide();
};
//end of sidebar initialization
// Toggle(Open/Close) the sidebar

Close on document click
Sidebar can be closed on document click by setting closeOnDocumentClick
to true. If this property is not set, the Sidebar will not close on document click since its default value is false. Sidebar can be kept opened during rendering using isOpen
property.
ej.base.enableRipple(true);
var defaultSidebar = new ej.navigations.Sidebar({
type: "Push",
width: '280px',
closeOnDocumentClick:true,
isOpen: true
});
defaultSidebar.appendTo('#default-sidebar');
//end of Sidebar initialization
// Toggle(Open/Close) the sidebar
document.getElementById('toggle').onclick = function() {
defaultSidebar.show();
};
//end of sidebar initialization
// Toggle(Open/Close) the sidebar
