pathrouter

Pathrouter JS

Simple routing library using HTML5 history.pushState or hashbang for web browsers.

Installation

$ npm install pathrouter

Standalone

Also, you can use the standalone version without components.

<script src="../standalone/path.js"></script>

How-to

First, initialize the router:

var path = require('pathrouter');

Now, define some listener for any paths:

function user(id) {
    console.log(id);
}
 
function userAction(id, action) {
    console.log(id);
    console.log(action);
}

Then, add some path to the router:

path('/user/:id', user);
path('/user/:id/:action', userAction);

You can also add to an object of path-listener:

path({
    '/user/:id': user,
    '/user/:id/:action': userAction
});

path('*', userAction);

path(userAction);

Somewhere in your HTML code, you should have anchor tags with #hash or #!/hash hyperlinks related to router js structure.

<a href="/user/pazguille" data-path>User</a>
