Breadcrumbs for Laravel Nova

You can install the package in to a Laravel app that uses Nova via composer:

composer require chris-ware/nova-breadcrumbs

Next, you must register the tool with Nova. This is typically done in the tools method of the NovaServiceProvider.

// in app/Providers/NovaServiceProvder.php

// ...
public function tools()
{
    return [
        // ...
        \ChrisWare\NovaBreadcrumbs\NovaBreadcrumbs::make(),
    ];
}

Finally, add the Breadcrumbs trait to your App\Nova\Resource class.

use ChrisWare\NovaBreadcrumbs\Traits\Breadcrumbs;

abstract class Resource extends NovaResource
{
    use Breadcrumbs;

You can disable the bundled styles and load your own by adding the following method to the call:

// in app/Providers/NovaServiceProvder.php

// ...
public function tools()
{
    return [
        // ...
        \ChrisWare\NovaBreadcrumbs\NovaBreadcrumbs::make()->withoutStyles(),
    ];
}

You can also customise both the label and title for a Resource. Label refers to the Resource's Name, so a Users Resource would have a Users label. Title refers to the title of the Resource as set by the $title property on the resource, so by default it would be the resource ID. Both of these can be overwritten for Breadcrumbs only by overwriting the functions on the trait that start with breadcrumb.

You can also conditionally disable breadcrumbs, using the static breadcrumbs method presented in the trait.

This package works using the custom header elements available on all Nova views. Due to the fact that the data available to these views differ, the rendering of breadcrumbs is API powered, to ensure that for all views, the necessary data is available and displayed.
