Introduction

@wxiaochuan/koa-history is a koa middleware that implements html5 history routes. It can flexibly configure routing on koa, and can be used in SPA projects written in vue, react and angular frameworks.

Install

// npm
npm i @wxiaochuan/koa-history
//yarn
yarn add @wxiaochuan/koa-history

use

const history = require('@wxiaochuan/koa-history');
const Koa = require('Koa');

const app = new Koa();

app.use(history({
  routes: ['/user', '/post'],
  root: '/dist'
}));

Option

export interface Router {
  path: string;
  children?: Array<Router>;
}

export interface Option {
  routes?: Router | Router[] | string[];
  shield?: boolean;
  root: string;
  opts?: any;
}

routes

routes option is null

This setting is also known as match-all mode. When routes option is null, all request paths will return.

app.use(history({
  root: '/dist'
}));

routes option is string array

This setting will return when request path match routes options.

app.use(history({
  routes: ['/user', '/post'],
  root: '/dist'
}));

Nested Routes

Options also support nested routes.

app.use(history({
  routes: [
    {
      path: '/user',
      children: [
        {
          path: 'foo'
        }
      ]
    }
  ],
  root: '/dist'
}));

In the example above, request path /user and /user/foo will return html file.

Dynamic Route

Dynamic route is supportted

app.use(history({
  routes: [
    {
      path: '/user/:id'
    }
  ],
  root: '/dist'
}));

Advanced

use with `koa-static`

It is recommended to use this method to return static files.

const history = require('@wxiaochuan/koa-history');
const Koa = require('Koa');
const koaStatic = require('koa-static');

const app = new Koa();

app.use(history({
  routes: ['/user', '/post'],
  root: '/dist'
}));

app.use(koaStatic('/dist'));

app.listen(9000);

specify index file

The default is to return the index.html file

app.use(history({
  routes: ['/user', '/post'],
  root: '/dist',
  opts: {
    index: 'myfile.html'
  }
}));

open file routes

By default, a path that is not defined in the routes option will return 404, regardless of whether the file exists or not, it will be blocked by default. In the above example, a 404 is returned when path=/ is requested despite the dist/index.html file existed. To turn off this behavior, set shield to false.
