Creating a breadcrumb navigation menu in your Rails app using BreadcrumbsOnRails is really straightforward.
In your controller, call add_breadcrumb to push a new element on the breadcrumb stack. add_breadcrumb requires two arguments: the name of the breadcrumb and the target path.
class MyController
add_breadcrumb "home", :root_path
add_breadcrumb "my", :my_path
def index
# ...
add_breadcrumb "index", index_path
end
end
The third, optional argument is a Hash of options to customize the breadcrumb link.
class MyController
def index
add_breadcrumb "index", index_path, :title => "Back to the Index"
end
end
In your view, you can render the breadcrumb menu with the render_breadcrumbs helper.

<body>
<%= render_breadcrumbs :separator => ' / ' %>
</body>
More complex customizations require a custom Builder.
