Question 1

How to use Ziggy with Vite in Laravel?

Accepted Answer

While Ziggy's README focuses on Laravel Mix, you can configure Vite by setting up aliases in vite.config.js to import ziggy-js from the vendor directory, or use community plugins like vite-plugin-ziggy for automatic regeneration.

Question 2

Ziggy vs Inertia.js for Laravel routing?

Accepted Answer

Ziggy is solely for URL generation, allowing you to use Laravel routes in JavaScript, while Inertia.js is a full-stack framework for building SPAs with server-side routing. Choose Ziggy for lightweight route sync; Inertia for integrated SPA experiences.

Question 3

How to filter routes in Ziggy for better security?

Accepted Answer

Create a config/ziggy.php file with 'only' or 'except' arrays, or define groups to expose specific routes on different pages, as explained in the Filtering Routes section. This prevents sensitive routes from being exposed in HTML.

Question 4

Can Ziggy handle custom route keys like UUIDs?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Ziggy supports custom route-model binding keys declared in Laravel routes, such as 'photo:uuid', and will correctly extract values from JavaScript objects when generating URLs, as shown in the route-model binding examples.

Question 5

What if Ziggy generates HTTP instead of HTTPS URLs?

Accepted Answer

This often occurs with TLS/SSL termination; fix it by configuring Laravel's trusted proxies according to the documentation, which ensures Ziggy uses the correct scheme based on your app's URL settings.

Question 6

How to use Ziggy in a React app without Blade?

Accepted Answer

Import the useRoute hook from ziggy-js and pass the Ziggy config object generated via php artisan ziggy:generate, or set the config globally, as detailed in the React integration section of the README.

Question 7

Does Ziggy work with Content Security Policies (CSP)?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can pass a nonce to the @routes directive or output routes as JSON to comply with CSPs, though this requires additional setup to load the route() function manually, as noted in the 'Using @routes with a Content Security Policy' part.
