Drupal 8 & 9: How create a simple custom module for breadcrumbs: Example #2
![Own custom breadcrumb](/sites/default/files/styles/max_720x720/public/articles/2017/breadcrumb.jpg?itok=S6BBF0X5)
In the previous article "How to create a simple custom module for breadcrumbs", I wrote how to make a custom module for breadcrumbs. This article extends the code shown in the previous example. Below is an example of how you can do it yourself.
Of course, this code does not have an admin interface and is not configurable. However, as practice shows, this is enough for most and easily editable at any time.
I tried to leave the necessary comments in the code. I hope this will help anyone :-)
File
easydrupal_breadcrumb.services.yml
services: easydrupal_breadcrumb.breadcrumb_nodes: class: Drupal\easydrupal_breadcrumb\Breadcrumb\BreadcrumbNodesBuilder tags: - { name: breadcrumb_builder, priority: 100 } easydrupal_breadcrumb.breadcrumb_views: class: Drupal\easydrupal_breadcrumb\Breadcrumb\BreadcrumbViewsBuilder tags: - { name: breadcrumb_builder, priority: 100 }
