Uses Traitsyii\bootstrap\BootstrapWidgetTrait
Available since version2.0

NavBar renders a navbar HTML component.

Any content enclosed between the \yii\bootstrap\begin() and \yii\bootstrap\end() calls of NavBar is treated as the content of the navbar. You may use widgets such as yii\bootstrap\Nav or \yii\widgets\Menu to build up such content. For example,

use yii\bootstrap\NavBar;
use yii\bootstrap\Nav;

NavBar::begin(['brandLabel' => 'NavBar Test']);
echo Nav::widget([
    'items' => [
        ['label' => 'Home', 'url' => ['/site/index']],
        ['label' => 'About', 'url' => ['/site/about']],
    ],
    'options' => ['class' => 'navbar-nav'],
]);
NavBar::end();
