React-Flex-Router

A routing library of React, but more than router.
React-Router is a great product, we learned a lot from it. But we truely faced many problems that React-Router doesn't resolve in real using, especially in mobile APPs.
We did a lot to let React-Flex-Router fit mobile APPs, such as Pages Cache, Scroll Memory.
We create a lot of flexible ways, so you can config the router more simplely.
And more...

Features

• Extensible route

  You can add route components anywhere,anytime.

  const App = ()=> {
    return (
      <HashRouter>
        <div>
          <Route lock component={ Home } path="/"/>
          <Route component={ Products } path="/products"/>
        </div>
      </HashRouter>
    )
  }
  
  const Products = ()=> {
    return (
      <div>
        <Route component={ ScienceProducts } path="/sci" />
        <Route component={ DailiUseProducts } path="/dai" />
      </div>
    )
  }
  
  ReactDOM.render(<App/>, document.getElementById('root'))
  

• Pages Cache

  • Use lock tag to lock a page.
  • Use page hook to hold a will-unmount's page when open a new page.

• Memory of scroll position

  Remember the scroll positions of every page, for scrolling to same position when back to a page.

• Supports loading components dynamicly

  Load a component dynamicly when it's route matches.

• Supports enter(and leave) filters

  • Enter filters, filters run before a route mount succeed, such as : login's check.
  • Leave filters, filters run before a route unmount succeed, such as : unsubmited form data.

• Pretty flexible

  • index tag : Index page of a module.
  • miss tag : When miss match.
  • lock tag : Lock a page for preventing to unmount after it mounted.
  • muiltiple tag : For muiltiple matching's need.

  <HashRouter>
    <div>
  
      <Route lock component={ Home } path="/"/>
  
      <Route component={ Products } path="/products" enterFilter={ loginFilter }>
        <Route index component={Enterprise} path="/ep"/>
        <Route miss component={ NotFound }/>
        <Route component={ Detail } path="/item/:id" time={new Date().toLocaleString()}/>
      </Route>
  
      <Route muiltiple component={ Home }  path="/products">
        <Route index component={ ProductNav }/>
      </Route>
  
    </div>
  </HashRouter>
  

• Supports rendering in server side
