ProperJS // Router

Lightweight JS router with History.

Installation

npm i properjs-router --save-dev

Usage

Alone this utility is quite useful, but it's fully realized in ProperJS/PageController.

import Router from "properjs-router";

// Router is fully utilized with PageController
// @see: https://github.com/ProperJS/PageController
const router = new Router({
    // Use XHR
    async: true, // Default
    // Keeps response caches for requests
    caching: true, // Default
    // Handle 404s and 500s
    handle404: true, // Default
    handle500: true, // Default
    // Pass options to Historia
    // @see: https://github.com/ProperJS/Historia
    historyOptions: {},
    // Run Router as a proxy (false by default)
    // proxy: {
    //     domain: "https://your.proxy.domain",
    // },
});

// Bind router to page
router.bind();

// Some routes to match, same style as MatchRoute
// @see: https://github.com/ProperJS/MatchRoute
const routes = [
    // Known route
    "some/route",

    // Unknown route
    "another/:slug",

    // Enforce Number on last URI segment
    "also/:slug/:num!num",
];

// Apply the GET listener to routes
routes.forEach(( route ) => {
    router.get( route, ( data ) => {
        console.log( "route data", data );
    });
});

// Bind to preget events
// Fires when the route is matched before the request begins
router.on( "preget", ( data ) => {
    console.log( "preget", data );
});

// Bind to popget events
// Fires when Historia fires a popstate event
router.on( "popget", ( data ) => {
    console.log( "popget", data );
});

Files

Router will ignore links deemed to be files.

Event metaKey

Router will honor the metaKey property on matched nodes allowing Command+click.

Ignore Links

Router will ignore all links with a js-router--ignore className.
