Breadcrumb

About

A breadcrumb is a component for navigational aid in user interfaces. It allows users to keep track and maintain awareness of their locations within programs, documents, or websites (see Wikipedia).

We use diglactic/laravel-breadcrumbs for implementing breadcrumbs. Please see their documentation for further details.

Our layout shows a breadcrumb by default, if a breadcrumb has been defined for for displayed route / page.

Example

Usage example:

Routes/event.php 

// Resource routes
Route::resource('events', EventsController::class);

// Breadcrumb configuration for events routes
Breadcrumbs::for('events.index', function (BreadcrumbTrail $trail) {
    $trail->push(trans('bc-events-presentation::event.pages.index.breadcrumb'), route('events.index'));
});
Breadcrumbs::for('events.show', function (BreadcrumbTrail $trail, Event $event) {
    $trail->parent('events.index');
    $trail->push(
        trans('bc-events-presentation::event.pages.show.breadcrumb', ['name' => $event->extended_title]),
        route('events.show', $event)
    );
});
Breadcrumbs::for('events.create', function (BreadcrumbTrail $trail) {
    $trail->parent('events.index');
    $trail->push(
        trans('bc-events-presentation::event.pages.create.breadcrumb'),
        route('events.create'),
    );
});
Breadcrumbs::for('events.edit', function (BreadcrumbTrail $trail, Event $event) {
    $trail->parent('events.show', $event);
    $trail->push(
        trans('bc-events-presentation::event.pages.edit.breadcrumb'),
        route('events.edit', ['event' => $event])
    );
});
