README
This package tries to give a simple solution for breadcrumbs. Add breadcrumbs direct to your routes and display them in your views.
Installation
You can install the package via composer:
composer require fragkp/laravel-route-breadcrumb
If you want also use the facade to access the main breadcrumb class, add this line to your facades array in config/app.php:
'Breadcrumb' => Fragkp\LaravelRouteBreadcrumb\Facades\Breadcrumb::class,
This package contains some pre-built views for the most active css-frameworks:
If you want to use one of these views, include it in this way:
@include('laravel-breadcrumb::bootstrap3')
To customize the pre-built views, run this command:
php artisan vendor:publish Fragkp\LaravelRouteBreadcrumb\BreadcrumbServiceProvider --tag=views
Note: You could also create your own custom view to display breadcrumb links.
Usage
Defining breadcrumbs
Basic
To add a breadcrumb title to your route, call the breadcrumb
method and pass your title.
Route::get('/')->breadcrumb('Your custom title');
Index
On some websites, you wish to have always an index inside your breadcrumbs. Use the breadcrumbIndex
method.
This method should only be used once.
Note:
breadcrumbIndex
sets also the breadcrumb title for this route.
Route::get('/')->breadcrumbIndex('Start'); Route::get('/foo')->breadcrumb('Your custom title');
Inside groups
The breadcrumb
method will also work inside route groups.
Route::get('/')->breadcrumbIndex('Start'); Route::prefix('/foo')->group(function () { Route::get('/bar')->breadcrumb('Your custom title'); });
Group index
Also, it is possible to specify a group index title by calling breadcrumbGroup
.
This method should only be used once inside a group.
Note:
breadcrumbGroup
sets also the breadcrumb title for this route.
Route::get('/')->breadcrumbIndex('Start'); Route::prefix('/foo')->group(function () { Route::get('/')->breadcrumbGroup('Foo group index'); Route::get('/bar')->breadcrumb('Your custom title'); });
Custom title resolver
If you want to customize your breadcrumb title, you could pass a closure to all breadcrumb methods.
Route::get('/')->breadcrumb(function () { return 'Your custom title'; });
You could also pass a fully qualified class name. This will invoke your class.
Route::get('/')->breadcrumb(YourCustomTitleResolver::class); class YourCustomTitleResolver { public function __invoke() { return 'Your custom title'; } }
You may also pass a callable.
Route::get('/foo/{id}')->breadcrumb([app('my_breadcrumb_resolver'), 'resolve']); // my_breadcrumb_resolver class MyBreadcrumbResolver { public function resolve($id) { $title = $this->repo->findById($id); return $title->getName(); } }
Route parameters
All route parameters will be passed to your resolver. Route model binding is also supported.
Route::get('/{foo}')->breadcrumb(YourCustomTitleResolver::class); class YourCustomTitleResolver { public function __invoke(Foo $foo) { return "Title: {$foo->title}"; } }
Accessing breadcrumb
Links
The links
method will return a Collection
of BreadcrumbLink
.
Note: The array is indexed by the uri.
app(Breadcrumb::class)->links(); // or use here the facade
Example result:
Illuminate\Support\Collection {#266 #items: array:2 [ "/" => Fragkp\LaravelRouteBreadcrumb\BreadcrumbLink {#41 +uri: "/" +title: "Start" } "foo" => Fragkp\LaravelRouteBreadcrumb\BreadcrumbLink {#262 +uri: "foo" +title: "Your custom title" } ] }
Index
The index
method will return a single instance of BreadcrumbLink
. If you haven't defined any index, null is returned.
app(Breadcrumb::class)->index(); // or use here the facade
Example result:
Fragkp\LaravelRouteBreadcrumb\BreadcrumbLink {#36 +uri: "/" +title: "Start" }
Current
The current
method will return a single instance of BreadcrumbLink
. If no route is provided (e.g. on errors), null is returned.
app(Breadcrumb::class)->current(); // or use here the facade
Example result:
Fragkp\LaravelRouteBreadcrumb\BreadcrumbLink {#36 +uri: "/" +title: "Your custom title" }
View example
A good way to access the breadcrumb inside your views is to bound it via a View Composer.
For more information about View Composers, have a look at the Laravel docs.
// app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider { public function boot() { View::composer('your-view', function ($view) { $view->with('breadcrumb', app(Breadcrumb::class)->links()); }); } }
// resources/views/breadcrumb.blade.php <ul> @foreach ($breadcrumb as $link) <li> <a href="{{ url($link->uri) }}">{{ $link->title }}</a> </li> @endforeach </ul>
