Setup

1. Add @nuxtjs/router-extras dependency to your project

yarn add --dev @nuxtjs/router-extras # or npm install --save-dev @nuxtjs/router-extras

2. Add @nuxtjs/router-extras to the buildModules section of nuxt.config.js

⚠️ If you are using Nuxt < 2.9.0, use modules instead.

    '@nuxtjs/router-extras',

    // With options
    ['@nuxtjs/router-extras', { /* module options */ }]
  ]
}

Using top level options

  ],
  routerExtras: {
    /* module options */
  }
}

Options

Simple aliases will be added as router alias, see vue-router

Usage

Define custom paths for a page

Simply add a block inside Vue file and define a path in JavaScript or Yaml

JavaScript

<router>
  {
    path: '/posts'
  }
</router>

Yaml

<router>
  path: /posts
</router>

Define multiple aliases for single page

If you want more paths for a single page, define them with aliases

JavaScript

<router>
 {
    path: '/posts',
    alias: [
      '/articles',
      '/blog'
    ]
 }
</router>

Yaml

<router>
    path: /posts
    alias:
        - /articles
        - /blog
</router>

Aliases can have their own props

JavaScript

<router>
  {
    path: '/posts',
    alias: [
      '/articles',
      {
        path: '/blog',
        props: {
          section: 'top-posts'
        }
      }
    ]
  }
</router>

Yaml

<router>
  path: /posts
  alias:
      - /articles
      - 
        path: /blog
        props:
          section: top-posts
</router>

Define multiple params regardless of pages directory structure

JavaScript

<router>
  {
    path: '/post/:id/:title?'
  }
</router>

Yaml

<router>
  path: /post/:id/:title?
</router>

Define named views for the page

JavaScript

<router>
{
  namedViews: {
    currentView: 'main',
    views: {
      side: '~/components/side.vue'
    },
    chunkNames: {
      side: 'components/side'
    }
  }
}
</router>

Yaml

<router>
  namedViews:
    currentView: "main"
    views:
      side: "~/components/side.vue"
    chunkNames:
      side: "~/components/side.vue"
</router>

Valid Extras

Extras	Support	Description
path	JS & YAML	Change page URL
alias	JS & YAML	Add single or multiple aliases to page, Module supports two types of aliases - Simple Alias: These aliases are defined as simple strings. If routerNativeAlias is true, simple aliases will be added as router alias, see vue-router docs - Clone Alias: These aliases are in form of object and they can have their own extras. These aliases will be added as an individual route. They can have their own props and they can have different number of url params

name	JS & YAML	Define custom name for route
props	JS & YAML	Pass predefined props to page

caseSensitive	JS & YAML	Use case sensitive route match (default: false)
redirect	JS & YAML	Redirect current page to new location
namedViews	JS & YAML	Add named view to the path, see Named Views Support

Named views support

There is support for named views in nuxt, but it requires the user to write a lot of boilerplate code in the config. The namedViews property in the <router> block allows for a more streamlined configuration

Named views key is a bit different from all other settings. It expects an object with following properties:

• currentView: actual view name for the current component. Defaults to "default", to be rendered in plain <nuxt-child />
• views: object, where keys are view names and values are component paths. It supports all expected path resolution (~/ and others)
• chunkNames: object, where keys are view names and values are webpack chunks for them. Object structure is expected to be equal to views - all the same keys must be present.

For usage example see example/pages/namedParent.vue and example/pages/namedParent/namedChild.vue.

}

• Execute command > Vetur: Generate grammar from vetur.grammar.customBlocks in VSCode
• Restart VSCode and enjoy awesome
