How to make a target_blank Menu link in EasyAdminBundle?

Question

In EasyAdmin dashboard, i added a 'View website' link in the left menu:

But i would like it to open a new browser window on click. And I am wondering how to add a target="_blank" attribute to it (or any other solution to get this result).

For now i have this code in App\Controller\Admin\DashboardController.php:

public function configureMenuItems(): iterable
{
    yield MenuItem::linkToDashboard('Dashboard', 'fas fa-tachometer-alt');
    yield MenuItem::linkToUrl('View website', 'fas fa-eye', '/')
        ->setPermission('ROLE_ADMIN');
    // ...
}

Thank you!

You can try this

->setHtmlAttributes(['target' => '_blank'])

It is now possible to use ->setLinkTarget(string $target);

It sets the target HTML attribute of the menu item link

From https://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_a_target.asp , here are the HTML options for a link :

<a target="_blank|_self|_parent|_top|framename">

For your case it would be :

  yield MenuItem::linkToUrl('View website', 'fas fa-eye', '/')
     ->setPermission('ROLE_ADMIN')
     ->setLinkTarget('_blank');
