How to use
import { createNiceWebRoutes } from 'nice-web-routes';
const routes = createNiceWebRoutes({
users: {
statistic: {},
},
user: {
userId: () => ({
avatar: {},
private_info: {},
}),
// typed parameter
form: (form: 'create' | 'edit') => ({}),
},
});
routes.url(); // '/'
routes.users.url(); // '/users'
routes.users.statistic.url(); // '/users/statistic'
routes.users.statistic.relativeUrl(); // 'statistic'
routes.users.statistic.url({ view: 'print', filter: 'no' }); // '/users/statistic?view=print&filter=no'
routes.users.statistic.url('/*'); // '/users/statistic/*'
routes.user.userId().relativeUrl(); // ':userId'
routes.user.userId('18').private_info.url(); // '/user/18/private-info'
// typed parameter
routes.user.form('create').url(); // '/user/create'
routes.user.form('edit').url(); // '/user/edit'
routes.user.form('something').url(); // error because it violates type constraint of 'create' | 'edit' | undefined
Using with react-router
import { createNiceWebRoutes } from 'nice-web-routes';
import { Navigate, Route, Routes } from 'react-router-dom';
const appRoutes = createNiceWebRoutes({
auth: {
login: {},
registration: {},
},
profile: {
userId: () => ({}),
settings: {},
edit: {
personal: {},
career: {},
},
},
});
const App = () => (
<Routes>
<Route index element={<Navigate to={appRoutes.auth.relativeUrl()} replace />} />
<Route path={appRoutes.auth.url('/*')}> {/* '/auth/*' */}
<Route index element={<Navigate to={appRoutes.auth.login.relativeUrl()} replace />} />
<Route path={appRoutes.auth.login.relativeUrl()} element={<LoginDisplay />} />
<Route path={appRoutes.auth.registration.relativeUrl()} element={<RegistrationDisplay />} />
</Route>
<Route path={appRoutes.profile.url('/*')}> {/* '/profile/*' */}
<Route index element={<MyProfileDisplay />} />
<Route path={appRoutes.profile.userId().relativeUrl()} element={<UserProfile />} />
<Route path={appRoutes.profile.settings.relativeUrl()} element={<SettingsDisplay />} />
<Route path={appRoutes.profile.edit.relativeUrl('/*')}> {/* 'edit/*' */}
<Route index element={<ProfileSettings />} />
<Route path={appRoutes.profile.edit.career.relativeUrl()} element={<EditCareerDisplay />} />
<Route path={appRoutes.profile.edit.personal.relativeUrl()} element={<EditPersonalInformationDisplay />} />
</Route>
</Route>
</Routes>
);
Customization
You can customize routes creating by using configureNiceWebRoutesCreating
and passing FactoryConfig
:
import { configureNiceWebRoutesCreating } from 'nice-web-routes';
const routes = configureNiceWebRoutesCreating({
getSegmentValue: (segmentName, segmentValue) => {
if (typeof segmentValue === 'string') {
return `argument_${segmentValue}`;
}
if (segmentName.toLowerCase().includes('id')) {
return ':id';
}
return `:${segmentName}`;
},
snakeTransformation: {
disableForSegmentValue: true,
},
})({
user: {
group: () => ({}),
userId: () => ({
avatar: {},
}),
},
});
routes.user.group().url(); // '/user/:group'
routes.user.userId().url(); // '/user/:id'
routes.user.userId('18').url(); // '/user/argument_18'
FactoryConfig
| Property | Type | Description | Default value |
|-----------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| getSegmentValue
| GetSegmentValue
=> (segmentName: string, segmentValue: string or undefined) => string
| It is responsible for displaying parametrized route value | value is displayed as is, and when there is no value it shows as :segmentName
|
| urlBuilderImpl
| UrlBuilderConstructor
=> class that implements UrlBuilder
interface | You can override how the target url is creating | DefaultUrlBuilder
- internal implementation |
| creatingStrategy
| CreatingStrategyVariant
=> 'proxy'
or 'object'
| it is about how your routes object is created (see Creating strategies section bellow) | object
|
| snakeTransformation
| { disableForSegmentName?: boolean; disableForSegmentValue?: boolean; }
| You can disable transformation of user_list
segment name or value to user-list
url part | {}
|
Creating strategies
Object strategy creates nested routes only when parametrized route is called.
It is good option, when you have no large trees under parametrized routes, because it traverses description tree for each parametrized node call . Objects nodes are traversed during routes creation time until it reaches parametrized route.
Proxy strategy creates proxy for each tree node when that node is accessed.
It is good option, if you have large route tree or many nested routes under parametrized routes, because it will not traverse entire tree on each node call. But performance in such case is lower than in Object strategy (caused Proxy implementation in js core).
