Auto-Scanned Routes in Command Palette

Features

• Auto-discovery: All routes using the default layout are automatically detected and added to the command palette
• Smart filtering: Only routes with the default layout are included
• Admin routes: Admin-only routes are only shown to admin users
• Nested routes: Handles nested routes with hierarchical labels (e.g., "Account Settings / Profile")
• Customizable: Routes can be customized with labels, icons, and visibility

Route Metadata

You can customize how routes appear in the command palette using definePageMeta:

Hide a route from search

<script setup>
definePageMeta({
  search: false
})
</script>

Custom label and icon

<script setup>
definePageMeta({
  search: {
    label: 'User Profile',
    icon: 'i-lucide-user'
  }
})
</script>

Admin-only routes

Admin routes are automatically filtered based on user role:

<script setup>
definePageMeta({
  isAdminOnly: true
})
</script>

How it works

1. The useSearchableRoutes composable scans all routes from Vue Router
2. Only routes using the default layout are included (excludes auth pages with layout: 'blank')
3. Routes are filtered based on metadata and user permissions
4. Labels are auto-generated from route paths or use custom search.label
5. Icons default to i-lucide-file or use custom search.icon
6. Routes are grouped in the command palette as Admin Pages or Pages

Auto-excluded routes

The following types of routes are automatically excluded from search:

• Routes with search: false
• Routes using non-default layouts (e.g., layout: 'blank')
• Dynamic routes (containing : in the path)
• Admin routes for non-admin users
• Routes without a name or path

Label generation

If no search.label is provided, labels are auto-generated from the route path:

• /app/billing → "Billing"
• /app/account-settings/profile → "Account Settings / Profile"
• /admin/users → "Users"

Nested routes use "/" as separator to show hierarchy.

Default icon

All routes use i-lucide-file as the default icon unless a custom search.icon is provided.

Grouping

Routes are grouped in the command palette as:

• Admin Pages: Routes under /admin (only visible to admin users)
• Pages: All other routes using the default layout
