Adonis: ReferenceError view is not defined

Question

I have controller like this

class TicketController {
   index(){
       return view.render('tickets')
    }
}

and create file in resource\view\tickets.edge and my route is

const Route = use('Route')
Route.resource('tickets', 'TicketController');

when I go to http://127.0.0.1:3333/tickets show me this error

ReferenceError view is not defined

That's because... `view` is not defined... I think you forgot to import something. — D. Pardal, Jun 28 '20 at 11:50
What is your question? What is unclear about the error message? — Sebastian Simon, Jun 28 '20 at 11:51
I’ve rolled back the edit. The fact that you’re a beginner is irrelevant to the question. _“How can I fix it?”_ — by defining `view`. Read whatever documentation is available to you. — Sebastian Simon, Jun 28 '20 at 12:10
I followed the documentation https://adonisjs.com/docs/4.1/views but in documentation dose not say about import 'view' — paranoid, Jun 28 '20 at 12:16

I had forgotten to import view class and fix it by this code:

const view = use('View');
class TicketController {
   index(){
       return view.render('tickets')
    }
}

You can use `view` object from context `index({ view })` : https://adonisjs.com/docs/4.1/views#_basic_example – crbast Jun 28 '20 at 15:55

You need to use view object from http context :

index ({ view }) {
  return view.render('hello-world')
}
