multiple different nested routes in same component based on conditional switch case - vue

Question

I am implementing a players module. In here, there are 3 routing cards in initial page. Each card is routing to next page which is having multiple routing cards of their respective parent card.

Example

  1.  1st level Card( Player Name) -- > 2nd level Cards(Players info, Player Statistics, Records) --> upto 3rd level routing

  2.  1st level Card(Grounds) -- > 2nd level Cards(Grounds info, Match played, Records) --> upto 3rd level routing

  3.  1st level Card(Match Information) -- > 2nd level Cards(Match info, match history, community resources) --> upto 3rd level routing

Now, i have created that many components with respective routes. But, i want to create one component to route all different routes based on condition( $route.path)

Now, here is my routes.js

{
    name: 'Players',
    path: '/players',
    component: PageLayout,
    meta: {
        topNavigation: true
    },
    redirect: { path: '/players/entry' },
    children: [
        {
            name: 'PlayersEntryPage',
            path: 'entry',
            component: PlayersEntryPage
        },
        {
            name: 'PlayersName',
            path: 'name',
            component: PlayersName
        },
        {
            name: 'Grounds',
            path: 'grounds',
            component: Grounds
        },
        {
            name: 'MatchInformation',
            path: 'info',
            component: MatchInformation

        }
    ]
}

Here is the first home page and then 1st level subsequent card components for routing

PlayersEntryPage

    <template>
    <vu-page background="gray">
        <vu-container>
            <vu-row-control class="mt-3">
                 <vu-box-control :list="cardLists" @click="cardAction"></vu-box-control>
            </vu-row-control>
        </vu-container>
    </vu-page>
</template>

<script>
export default {
    data() {
        return {
            cardLists: [
                { heading: ‘PlName', content:’Players Name and information',to:'/players/name'},
                { heading: ‘Grnd',  content:  ‘Ground Information', to:'/players/grounds' },
                { heading: ‘Infos', content:  ‘Match Informations', to:'/players/info' }
            ]
        };
    },
    methods: {
        cardAction(value) {
            if(value) {
                this.$router.push(value.to);
            }
        }
    }
};
</script>

1st level component (PlayersName) -> 2nd level component cards

    <template>
    <vu-page background="gray">
        <vu-container>
            <vu-row-control class="mt-3">
                 <vu-box-control :list="cardLists" @click="cardAction"></vu-box-control>
            </vu-row-control>
        </vu-container>
    </vu-page>
</template>

<script>
export default {
    data() {
        return {
            cardLists: [
                { heading: ‘Players Personal Info', to:’/players/name/pinfo'},
                { heading: ‘Players Statistics', to:'/players/name/statistics' },
                { heading: ‘Players Records',to:’/players/name/records' }
            ]
        };
    },
    methods: {
        cardAction(value) {
            if(value) {
                this.$router.push(value.to);
            }
        }
    }
};
</script>

Box-control code snippet

    <template>
    <div class="box-wrapper">
        <div v-for="(items, i) in boxes" :key="'box-row-' + i" class="box-container">
            <vu-button-control
                v-for="item in items"
                :key="item.heading"
                plain
                class="box"
                :to="item.to"
                @click="click($event, item)"
            >
                <vu-row-control>
 <vu-column-control  cols="10">
                        <h1 class="label">{{ item.heading }}</h1>
                        <p class="body_content">{{ item.content }}</p>
                    </vu-column-control>

                    <vu-column-control cols="2">
                        <vu-button-control @click.stop=“addFavouriteClick(item)">
                        </vu-button-control>
                    </vu-column-control>
                </vu-row-control>
            </vu-button-control>
        </div>
    </div>
</template>

All other routing cards are following exactly same structure just one difference is the passed data . So, that's why i want one single component and based on $route path i want to change the data part.

I am thinking to use switch case approach but not able to do that conditional routing part.

Answer 1

Sorry, but I'm not sure I understood your problem fully - but I try to give a solution to what I understood:

• you have three levels of routing
• you have different components for all the routes
• you'd like to have 1 component for handling the routes

To achieve that I'd extend the router to pass subroutes props to a general component:

 const PlayersInfo = { template: ` <div>Players info component</div> ` } const PlayerStatistics = { template: ` <div>Player statistics component</div> ` } const PlayerRecords = { template: ` <div>Player records component</div> ` } const GroundsInfo = { template: ` <div>Grounds info component</div> ` } const MatchPlayed = { template: ` <div>Match played component</div> ` } const GroundsRecords = { template: ` <div>Grounds records component</div> ` } const MatchInfo = { template: ` <div>Match info component</div> ` } const MatchHistory = { template: ` <div>Match history component</div> ` } const CommunityResources = { template: ` <div>Community resources component</div> ` } // RoutingControl can be called inside itself const RoutingControl = { props: ["subroutes"], template: ` <div> <router-link v-for="subroute in subroutes":key="subroute":to="{ name: subroute }" class="link" > {{ subroute }} </router-link><br /> <router-view /> </div> ` } const routes = [{ name: 'Root', path: '/', redirect: { path: '/players/entry', }, }, { name: 'Players', path: '/players', component: RoutingControl, meta: { topNavigation: true }, redirect: { path: '/players/entry' }, props: (route) => ({ subroutes: getRouteNames("Players") }), children: [{ name: 'PlayersEntryPage', path: 'entry', component: RoutingControl, props: (route) => ({ subroutes: getRouteNames("PlayersEntryPage"), }), children: [{ name: 'PlayersName', path: 'name', component: RoutingControl, props: (route) => ({ subroutes: getRouteNames("PlayersName"), }), children: [{ name: 'Players info', path: 'players-info', component: PlayersInfo, }, { name: 'Player Statistics', path: 'player-statistics', component: PlayerStatistics, }, { name: 'Player records', path: 'player-records', component: PlayerRecords, }], }, { name: 'Grounds', path: 'grounds', component: RoutingControl, props: (route) => ({ subroutes: getRouteNames("Grounds"), }), children: [{ name: 'Grounds info', path: 'grounds-info', component: GroundsInfo, }, { name: 'Match played', path: 'match-played', component: MatchPlayed, }, { name: 'Grounds records', path: 'grounds-records', component: GroundsRecords, }], }, { name: 'MatchInformation', path: 'info', component: RoutingControl, props: (route) => ({ subroutes: getRouteNames("MatchInformation"), }), children: [{ name: 'Match info', path: 'match-info', component: MatchInfo, }, { name: 'match history', path: 'match-history', component: MatchHistory, }, { name: 'community resources', path: 'community-resources', component: CommunityResources, }], } ], }, ] } ] // get subroutes automatically for router (by route name) function getChildrenRoutesNames(arr) { return (routeName) => { let ret = [] arr.forEach(route => { if (route.name === routeName) { ret = route?.children.map(({ name }) => name) } else { if (route?.children?.length) { ret = [...ret, ...getChildrenRoutesNames(route.children)(routeName)] } } }) return ret } } // "fixing" the routes array scope, so it stays when used // inside that array const getRouteNames = getChildrenRoutesNames(routes) const router = new VueRouter({ routes, }) new Vue({ el: "#app", router, })

 .link { padding: 0 8px; }

I hope this is close to what you were looking for:)
