| Nov 25, 2020 at 6:13 | comment | added | Tobias Krause | I already thought of creating a service for that but it seems to me sometimes that this is a little bit of overengineering. This is a very specific use case in my code. At the moment no other code depends on that "not so easy logic".It would be simpler to access the method on the controller already implementing it from within the block plugin to follow DRY and then refactor later in case this logic will be needed by some other code as well. A service for a logic just needed in two places deeply depending to each others seems too much for me. | |

Sometimes refactoring is needed to prevent code smell. Define your own service and inject the route into the service | |
