Question: Routing based on backend logic #162

Closed mrmedicine closed 5 years ago

mrmedicine commented 5 years ago

Question

What would be a good / the best approach to make the following workflow possible?

  1. Universal-router, receives url '/some/page'
  2. Tries to fetch pageinfo based on '/some/page' from some backend.
  3. Either: finds the page and loads a generic react component, passes along data received from the backend to the component. Or: the page was not found in which case the "not found" component is returned.

Is it possible to write this logic in the resolveRoute(context, params); ?

I plan to add this logic to https://github.com/kriasoft/react-starter-kit for server aswell as client routing, and can place the relevant code parts here, feel free to ask questions, thanks!

hi @mrmedicine, here is an example how you can implement it: https://github.com/kriasoft/react-starter-kit/pull/1237
