Set multiple breadcrumbs regardless of route

🧩 Feature request

Set multiple breadcrumbs regardless of route

Description

I would like to have the ability to add multiple breadcrumbs when I'm on a url.
Example:
route is localhost:4200/path1
then when I resolve data, I use that data to build my own breadcrumb path, I cannot do that as of right now. I can only set one breadcrumb using the .set() method.

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd like a solution where I can inject the breadcrumbService and use an .add() function (maybe?) so I can add multiple breadcrumbs.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I tried using multiple empty route paths with a breadcrumb, also tried ways to access the breadcrumb[] object but could not figure out how I can add multiple breadcrumbs to the array.

I want this functionality too

@AndriesN @gabrielbergoc Can you confirm the below understanding of the requirement

Instead of

breadcrumbService.set('mentors', 'Mentor View');
breadcrumbService.set('mentor/:id', 'Uday Vunnam');

we want
breadcrumbService.add('mentors', 'Mentor View').add('mentor/:id', 'Uday Vunnam')

to make it easy to define the dynamic breadcrumbs?

[gabrielbergoc]

That would work for me!
But maybe add the "add" method, not replace "set"? I don't know if it's possible...
Like, the current interface and behavior remain unchanged, but at page "x" I may want to add, besides "x", "y" and "z", so that they remain in the breadcrumbs if I navigate further, and when I navigate backwards, only "x > y > z" are removed.
And maybe another methods like "remove", "has", etc.

[AndriesN]

Yes, that would be great!

not stale

I also want this feature.

Basically, the requirement is that some elements exist on a path without a parent component, but logically are part of a parent component.

Example

Home > Quiz > Quiz 1 > Session > Session 1

I want breadcrumb like this, but the actual path to Session 1 is

{
    path: '/quiz/session',
    data: {breadcrumb: {alias: 'quizName'}}
    children: [
        {
            path: ':id',
            component: SessionComponent,
            data: {breadcrumb: {alias: 'sessionName'}}
        }
    ]
}

Now with this path, I can only set the breadcrumb to the :id path and cannot set the Quiz > Quiz 1 in the breadcrumb.

If support to add multiple breadcrumbs is given, it can be something like

this.breadcrumbService.add([['/quiz', 'Quiz'], ['@quizName', this.getQuizName()], ['/quiz/session', 'Session'], ['@sessionName', this.getSessionName()]);
