处理页面刷新/ F5 angular js和laravel

Question

I am building an application with angular js( new to angular js ) and laravel. All laravel routes except home page route serves only json data needed for that page. Home page loads all the necessary stuff that angular js has to work with. The problem is that if user decides to refresh the page when he/she is on a url other than home page, the page displays only json data, since there is no css,script and html loaded. My question is what is the best and professional way of handling page refresh/f5 with angular? Should i prevent the page refresh at all, if yes how? Hope my question is clear enough...

Answer 1

According to your post and comment here are 3 proposed solutions/suggestion.

1. Stay on one url and manage the json only,dont change your url it direct to your laravel route request if refreshed by user.

2. Using angularjs default hashtag(#) method is better, to understand angular and laravel.

3. Send a variable with your angularjs request to route to identify that it comes from angular and check in your route. If from angular return json otherwise you can redirect to home page.

I hope it will help
