sly-svelte-spa-router

A SPA router for Svelte based on the History API.

How it works

1. Router initialization:

   • The createRouter function sets up the router with provided routes and configurations.
   • It adds event listeners for routing changes and popstate events.
   • Initializes the first route based on the current URL.

2. Route changes:

   • Routes can be changed using goTo, goNext, goPrev functions, or link and route directives.
   • These trigger custom events ('routing-changed' or 'routing-url-changed').

3. Route processing:

   • When a route change is requested, the router checks for restrictions.
   • If restricted, it redirects to an allowed route.

4. Route rendering:

   • The Router.svelte component renders the current route component.
   • It also updates the document title and handles slot content.

5. History management:

   • The router uses the History API to manage browser history.
   • It pushes or replaces state depending on the navigation action.

6. Restrictions:

   • Routes can have restrictions that are checked before navigation.
   • Custom restriction resolvers can be provided to handle complex logic.

Key Components

• Router.svelte: Main component for rendering routes.
• createRouter: Function to initialize the router.
• link and route directives: For declarative routing in templates.
• goTo, goNext, goPrev: Programmatic navigation functions.
