Can't Set Path to Root /

[mdavis1982]

Version: 1.0.5

TL;DR
When trying to set my path to '/' in the Nova config, I get:

No hint path defined for [nova].

Expanded Explanation
I have a situation where a CRUD based dashboard is basically our entire application. We're writing a management interface for some data that will be served up via an API to other products.

I want to set the root path of Nova to '/' so that our customer service people are greeted with the login form as soon as they go to the domain that Nova will be used on.

Is this possible and I'm just missing something?

Thanks 😄

I don't have Nova and therefore I can't say for certain, but you can create a route in the routes file that redirects '/' to '/nova'

[mdavis1982]

@zachweix I could do that, for sure. But then I'd still have Nova in my URI.

@mdavis1982 Well, from what it sounds like, you can have other words, in which case you can have it forward to '/app' or '/dashboard' or something else that looks good

@mdavis1982, noticed this as well. For now, I've done what @zachweix mentioned and changed to /dashboard. However, being able to set it to '' or '/' would be nice.

Can't change nova-api root routes

[oanqa]

This error occurred when FileViewFinder cannot find the nova namespace in application. When nova bootstraping the provider nova check the request if the request intend to Nova application, see Laravel\Nova\Http\Middleware\ServeNova.
So for changing the root you can extend the ServeNova middleware or you can register the Laravel\Nova\NovaServiceProvider in your application providers config

Fixed.
