Make your users dynamically navigate routes, make smart commands and queries with a single directive.
Vue Smart Route allows you to create a query system based on your routes. You can simply create a command input that creates smart actions, both static routes and the async ones:
yarn add vue-smart-route
Then install it:
import Vue from 'vue'
import VueRouter from 'vue-router'
import VueSmartRoute from 'vue-smart-route'
Vue.use(VueRouter)
Vue.use(VueSmartRoute)This is a well known route in VueRouter:
routes: [
{
name: 'about',
path: '/about'
}
]To make it smart route, just add a smart key:
routes: [
{
name: 'about',
path: '/about',
// Adding smart key with `matcher` and `handler` (optional)
smart: {
matcher: {
search: [/about/],
title: () => 'About us'
}
}
}
]Then, you need to use v-smart-routes directive to connect possible routes you asked with search:
<template>
<input type="text" v-model="search" v-smart-routes="routes">
</template>
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
search: '',
routes: []
}
}
}
</script>Now, routes and search are connected each other and routes will be smartly calculated according to search property.
Following examples are styled.
vue-smart-routedoes not contain any style or component.
You can check /example to see a working example.
vue-smart-route is simple yet powerful. You can extend your logic to make your route smarter.
Let's create a smart /search route:
{
name: 'search',
path: '/search',
component: () => import('./Search.vue'),
smart: {
matcher: {
// Named RegExp will be passed to the `title` function:
search: [/^search\:?\s+(?<query>.+)/i],
title: ({ query }) => `Search about *${query}*`
}
}
}
When you click to the link, it will be navigated to the /search?query=how+to+be+smart.
Then you'll be able to access to the query using $route.query.query from your view.
You can simply make your search smarter by adding more logic:
{
name: 'mail',
path: '/mail',
component: () => import('./SendMail.vue'),
smart: {
matcher: {
search: [
/(?<email>[a-zA-Z0-9.!#$%&’*+/=?^_`{|}~-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9-]+(?:\.[a-zA-Z0-9-]+)*)/i,
/(?<email>[a-zA-Z0-9.!#$%&’*+/=?^_`{|}~-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9-]+(?:\.[a-zA-Z0-9-]+)*)\s+(?<subject>\w+)/i
],
title({ email, subject }) {
if (subject) {
return `Send email to *${email}* with subject *${subject}*`;
}
return `Send email to *${email}*`;
}
}
}
}- You can pass multiple
RegExpfor search, titlegets all the named matches and may include logic.
It lists all the routes.
vue-smart-route includes only a directive that makes all the magic.
Directive requires to be bound an input with a v-model, and using v-smart-routes you will bind results to another property.
E.g. if you bind v-smart-routes to results property, it will be an array of route objects.
| key | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
name |
String |
Route name, e.g. home |
path |
String |
Route path, e.g. / |
title |
String |
Route title generated by title function of the smart route |
handler |
Function |
A function that triggers the navigation. It can be overriden. |
handler navigates to page by default, but it can be changed.
Let's make email example smarter by changing the navigation handler:
{
name: 'mail',
path: '/mail',
component: () => import('./SendMail.vue'),
smart: {
matcher: {
search: [
/(?<email>[a-zA-Z0-9.!#$%&’*+/=?^_`{|}~-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9-]+(?:\.[a-zA-Z0-9-]+)*)/i,
/(?<email>[a-zA-Z0-9.!#$%&’*+/=?^_`{|}~-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9-]+(?:\.[a-zA-Z0-9-]+)*)\s+(?<subject>\w+)/i
],
title({ email, subject }) {
if (subject) {
return `Send email to *${email}* with subject *${subject}*`;
}
return `Send email to *${email}*`;
}
},
// Customizing the handler
handler(route, next) {
if (route.query.subject) {
location.href = `mailto:${route.query.email}?subject=${
route.query.subject
}`;
// Calling next will continue navigation by default, you can redirect or just stop here.
next(route);
return;
}
location.href = `mailto:${route.query.email}`;
next(route);
}
}
}According to this example, you will be able to navigate your user to the mail application.
vue-smart-route supports async routes that you can generate routes on demand, on runtime. To do that, you should use async routes method to matcher:
smart: {
matcher: {
search: [/swapi\s(?<query>.*)/],
async routes({ query }) {
const people = await fetch(`https://swapi.co/api/people/?search=${encodeURIComponent(query)}`).then(r => r.json())
return people.results.map(character => ({
name: 'character',
title: `Go to character *${character.name}*`,
params: { url: character.url }
}))
}
}
}This will help you to generate new routes dynamically:
You can also use i18n features in vue-smart-route:
search, title and handler takes ctx parameters which you can access to current component.
routes: [
{
name: 'about',
path: '/about',
smart: {
matcher: {
search: (ctx) => {
switch (ctx.$i18n.locale) {
case 'tr':
return [/hakkinda/]
case 'en':
default:
return [/about/]
}
},
title: ({}, ctx) => ctx.$i18n.t('navigation.about_us')
},
handler (route, next, ctx) {
location.href = `https://${ctx.i18n.locale}.example.com/about`
}
}
}
