babdev / laravel-breadcrumbs Goto Github PK

Hi there!

First of all thank you for taking over this project!

I was wondering whether the following would be possible:

In a standard Eloquent Model with Controller, I have the following views:

• index
• show
• edit

It seems obvious that the order of breadcrumbs would be Index / Show / Edit.
The Index-Breadcrumb should show as the actual model name, and then it makes more sense to display the Show-Breadcrumb as the actual id of the model.

Visually that would mean something like

• Posts for index
• Posts / 123 for show
• Posts / 123 / Edit for edit

I was able to implement that. However in terms of UX I'd like to make the structure more concise and put the model id as an independent part of the breadcrumbs for show and edit. Something like the following

• Posts for index (as before)
• Posts / 123 / Details for show, where 123 / Details could be the current route (= no hyperlink)
• Posts / 123 / Edit for edit, where 123 links to show (!)

So, the parent for both show and edit would be index, however...

I basically just came up with a (kind of hacky) solution while writing this (rubber-ducking for the win!).
I will just push a <a href="ROUTE_TO_SHOW">123</a> / Edit for the edit breadcrumb.

If there's a better solution after all, please let me know.

I'll leave this here in case anybody else comes up with the same problem.
