Resource routes

You can define titles for resource routes using the titles method. This method takes only one object as argument where the keys are the route names (which are generated automatically when you create resource routes; please refer to this link for more information), without the resource prefix. You can use both static and dynamic titles. Only titles for GET routes will be registered.

WARNING

When a route has one parent or more, bear in mind that the HTTP context of the current route will be passed to all parents. Which means that when you define a title for one of the parents, which is using a callback as argument instead of a string, and calling for example ctx.request.url(), it will return the URL of the current request and not the URL of the parent.

In this example, we are using dynamic titles from @adonisjs/i18n module and route model bindings.

typescript

import { HttpContext } from '@adonisjs/core/http'
import router from '@adonisjs/core/services/router'

const PostsController = () => import('#controllers/posts_controller')

router.resource('posts', PostsController).titles({
  index: 'All posts', // Simple string
  create: ({ i18n }: HttpContext) => i18n.t('post.create'), // From lang files
  show: (ctx: HttpContext, post: Post) => post.title, // From route model binding
  edit: (ctx: HttpContext, post: Post) => {
    return `${i18n.t('post.edit')} - ${post.title}` // From lang files and route model binding
  },
})
