Dynamic Routes Overlapping Static Routes

[taylorjames]

is it possible to implement routes that can overlap?

I need to have a dynamic route off of the base route like such

merchant: {
  path: '/:merchantId',
      method: 'get',
      handler: require('../components/merchant'),
      label: 'Home',
      action: (context, payload, done) => {
        var merchantId = payload.get('params').get('merchantId);
        //dispatch something here
    }
}

then I need other routes that overlap the merchant route if is not type of merchantId like such

merchant: {
  path: '/guides',
      method: 'get',
      handler: require('../components/guides'),
      label: 'Home',
      action: (context, payload, done) => {
        //dispatch something here
    }
}

How can I implement this? is there a way I can check the path to see its type and choose what route to use?

You should be able to, whatever matches first will be used. So you could have more specific routes first and then have a catch all after that.

@redonkulus I don't think that works, as the routes config is an object you can't control the order of the routes.
