Styling active route menu item in laravel

#laravel #beginners

You can check if the current route is active just with

request()->routeIs('admin.cities')
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Or even sub-routes (like editing, creating, or whatever with

request()->routeIs('admin.cities*')
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

If you prefer to use the route facade, you still can do that with

Route::named('admin.cities*')
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

By using the * character, you can apply the active class to sub-menus easily:

routeIs('admin.cities*') ? 'active' : '' }}"> Cities
routeIs('admin.cities.index') ? 'active' : '' }}><a>List</a>
routeIs('admin.cities.create') ? 'active' : '' }}><a>Create</a>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
