function hook_navbar in Navbar 7

Add items to the navbar menu.

The navbar is a container for administrative and site-global interactive components.

The navbar provides a common styling for items denoted by the .navbar-tab class. The theme wrapper navbar_tab_wrapper is provided to wrap a navbar item with the appropriate markup to apply the styling.

The navbar provides a construct called a 'tray'. The tray is a container for content. The tray may be associated with a toggle in the administration bar. The toggle shows or hides the tray and is optimized for small and large screens. To create this association, hook_navbar() returns one or more render elements of type 'navbar_item', containing the toggle and tray elements in its 'tab' and 'tray' properties.

The following properties are available:

• 'tab': A renderable array.
• 'tray': Optional. A renderable array.
• '#weight': Optional. Integer weight used for sorting navbar items in administration bar area.

This hook is invoked in navbar_pre_render().

Return value

An array of navbar items, keyed by unique identifiers such as 'home' or 'administration', or the short name of the module implementing the hook. The corresponding value is a render element of type 'navbar_item'.
