I want to get the name of the current route of vue-router, i have a component menu with navigation to another componentes, so i want to dispaly the name of the current route. I have this:

created(){
    this.currentRoute;
    //this.nombreRuta = this.$route.name;
},
computed:{
    currentRoute:{
        get(){
            this.nombreRuta = this.$route.name;
        }
    }
}

But the label of the name of the route does not change, the label only show the name of the first loaded route. Thank You

You are using computed incorrectly. You should return the property in the function. See the docs for more information.

Here is your adapted example:

computed: {
    currentRouteName() {
        return this.$route.name;
    }
}

You can then use it like this:

<div>{{ currentRouteName }}</div>

You can also use it directly in the template without using a computed property, like this:

<div>{{ $route.name }}</div>

Vue 3 + Vue Router 4

Update 5/03/2021

If you are using Vue 3 and Vue Router 4, here is two simplest ways to get current name of route in setup hook:

Solution 1: Use useRoute

import { useRoute } from 'vue-router';
export default {
  setup () {
    const currentRoute = computed(() => {
      return useRoute().name
    })
    return { currentRoute }
  }
}

Solution 2: Use useRouter

import { useRouter } from 'vue-router';
export default {
  setup () {
    const currentRoute = computed(() => {
      return useRouter().currentRoute.value.name;
    })
    return {currentRoute}
  }
}

I use this...

this.$router.history.current.path

In Composition API, this works

import { useRouter } from 'vue-router'

const router = useRouter()

let currentPathObject = router.currentRoute.value; 
 
console.log("Route Object", currentPathObject)

// Pick the values you need from the object

This is how you can access AND watch current route's name using @vue/composition-api package with Vue 2 in TypeScript.

<script lang="ts">
import { defineComponent, watch } from '@vue/composition-api';

export default defineComponent({
  name: 'MyCoolComponent',
  setup(_, { root }) {
    console.debug('current route name', root.$route.name);

    watch(() => root.$route.name, () => {
      console.debug(`MyCoolComponent- watch root.$route.name changed to ${root.$route.name}`);
    });
  },
});
</script>

I will update this answer once Vue 3.0 and Router 4.0 gets released!

I use this...

this.$route.name
user_97009060

I used something like this:

import { useRoute } from 'vue-router';

then declared

const route = useRoute();

Finally if you log route object - you will get all properties I used path for my goal.

In my Laravel app I created a router.js file and I can access the router object in any vue component like this.$route

I usually get the route like this.$route.path

Using composition API,

<template>
 <h1>{{Route.name}}</h1>
</template>

<script setup>
import {useRoute} from 'vue-router';

const Route = useRoute();
</script>

this.$router.currentRoute.value.name;

Works just like this.$route.name.

Using Vue 3 and Vue Router 4 with Composition API and computed:

<script setup>
    import { computed } from 'vue'
    import { useRouter } from 'vue-router'

    // computed
    const currentRoute = computed(() => {
        const router = useRouter()
        return router.currentRoute.value.name
    })
</script>

<template>
    <div>{{ currentRoute }}</div>
</template>

⚠ If you don't set a name in your router like so, no name will be displayed:

const routes = [
    { path: '/step1', name: 'Step1', component: Step1 },
    { path: '/step2', name: 'Step2', component: Step2 },
];

this is how you can get id (name) of current page in composition api (vue3):

import { useRoute } from 'vue-router';

export function useFetchPost() {
  const currentId = useRoute().params.id;
  const postTitle = ref('');

  const fetchPost = async () => {
        try {
        const response = await axios.get(
      `https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/${currentId}`
    );
        postTitle.value = response.data.title;
      } catch (error) {
        console.log(error);
      } finally {
      }
  };

onMounted(fetchPost);

return {
  postTitle,
};

}

I'm using this method on vue 3 & vue-router 4
It works great!

<script>
import { useRoute } from 'vue-router'

export default {
    name: 'Home',
    setup() {
        const route = useRoute();
        const routeName = route.path.slice(1); //route.path will return /name

        return {
            routeName
        }
    }
};
</script>

<p>This is <span>{{ routeName }}</span></p>
