@embroider/router

A tiny extension to the stock Ember Router that detects the presence of lazy route bundles and loads them when needed.

Compatibility

• Ember.js v3.28 or above
• Ember CLI v3.28 or above
• Node.js v16 or above

To get code-splitting, your app must build with Embroider. It's safe to use this router in apps that aren't building with Embroider, but it won't do anything.

Limitations

Route "serialize" hook Not Supported

When using lazily-loaded routes, the serialize hook on Route is not supported, because this would require us to load a Route when someone is only linking to it, not actually visiting it.

Route Unit Tests may need to be updated

Once you enable lazy loading of routes, any Route unit tests that try to lookup('route:your-route-name') can fail because the route is not necessarily loaded. You can adjust your tests to explicitly import and register the Route:

import { module, test } from 'qunit';
import { setupTest } from 'ember-qunit';
+ import ExampleRoute from 'your-app/routes/example';

module('Unit | Route | example', function (hooks) {
  setupTest(hooks);

+ hooks.beforeEach(function () {
+   this.owner.register('route:example', ExampleRoute);
+ });

  test('it exists', function (assert) {
    let route = this.owner.lookup('route:example');
    assert.ok(route);
  });
});

Installation

ember install @embroider/router

In your router.js file, import our router instead of the stock one:

-import EmberRouter from '@ember/routing/router';
+import EmberRouter from '@embroider/router';

Notes on usage with pods

If you use the pod file layout for your routes, you have to make sure to set a non-undefined podModulePrefix in your config/environment.js. podModulePrefix: '' is also allowed. Otherwise, your pod routes will not be picked up by Embroider.
