Getting the current named route(s)

How to check the if the current route name is one of two predefined route names? Currently I have:

<a class={{ Route::is('blog') ? ' active' : '' }}{{ Route::is('blogdetail') ? ' active' : '' }}" href=#>MyLink</a>

Perhaps, there is some better routine/way of checking the current named route from a list of predefined routes?

You can change the name blogdetail to blog.detail and blog to blog.index then use blog.* in your is() functiom

@Snapey Many thanks.

You can also pass many patterns into the is() function

<a class={{ Route::is('blog', 'blogdetail') ? ' active' : '' }}" href=#>MyLink</a>

My preference is to name routes with some hierarchy
