Variables

variable ɵROUTER_PROVIDERS

const ɵROUTER_PROVIDERS: Provider[];

variable ROUTER_INITIALIZER

const ROUTER_INITIALIZER: InjectionToken<(compRef: ComponentRef<any>) => void>;

A DI token for the router initializer that is called after the app is bootstrapped.

variable ROUTER_OUTLET_DATA

const ROUTER_OUTLET_DATA: InjectionToken<Signal<unknown>>;

An InjectionToken provided by the RouterOutlet and can be set using the routerOutletData input.
When unset, this value is null by default.
To set the data from the template of the component with router-outlet:
<router-outlet [routerOutletData]="{name: 'Angular'}" />
To read the data in the routed component:
data = inject(ROUTER_OUTLET_DATA) as Signal<{name: string}>;

variable ROUTES

const ROUTES: InjectionToken<Route[][]>;

The DI token for a router configuration.
ROUTES is a low level API for router configuration via dependency injection.
We recommend that in almost all cases to use higher level APIs such as RouterModule.forRoot(), provideRouter, or Router.resetConfig().

variable VERSION

const VERSION: Version;

Functions

function convertToParamMap

convertToParamMap: (params: Params) => ParamMap;

Converts a Params instance to a ParamMap.
Parameter params
The instance to convert.
Returns
The new map instance.

function createUrlTreeFromSnapshot

createUrlTreeFromSnapshot: (
    relativeTo: ActivatedRouteSnapshot,
    commands: any[],
    queryParams?: Params | null,
    fragment?: string | null
) => UrlTree;

Creates a UrlTree relative to an ActivatedRouteSnapshot.

Parameter relativeTo

The ActivatedRouteSnapshot to apply the commands to

Parameter commands

An array of URL fragments with which to construct the new URL tree. If the path is static, can be the literal URL string. For a dynamic path, pass an array of path segments, followed by the parameters for each segment. The fragments are applied to the one provided in the relativeTo parameter.

Parameter queryParams

The query parameters for the UrlTree. null if the UrlTree does not have any query parameters.

Parameter fragment

The fragment for the UrlTree. null if the UrlTree does not have a fragment.

// create /team/33/user/11
createUrlTreeFromSnapshot(snapshot, ['/team', 33, 'user', 11]);

// create /team/33;expand=true/user/11
createUrlTreeFromSnapshot(snapshot, ['/team', 33, {expand: true}, 'user', 11]);

// you can collapse static segments like this (this works only with the first passed-in value):
createUrlTreeFromSnapshot(snapshot, ['/team/33/user', userId]);

// If the first segment can contain slashes, and you do not want the router to split it,
// you can do the following:
createUrlTreeFromSnapshot(snapshot, [{segmentPath: '/one/two'}]);

// create /team/33/(user/11//right:chat)
createUrlTreeFromSnapshot(snapshot, ['/team', 33, {outlets: {primary: 'user/11', right:
'chat'}}], null, null);

// remove the right secondary node
createUrlTreeFromSnapshot(snapshot, ['/team', 33, {outlets: {primary: 'user/11', right: null}}]);

// For the examples below, assume the current URL is for the `/team/33/user/11` and the
`ActivatedRouteSnapshot` points to `user/11`:

// navigate to /team/33/user/11/details
createUrlTreeFromSnapshot(snapshot, ['details']);

// navigate to /team/33/user/22
createUrlTreeFromSnapshot(snapshot, ['../22']);

// navigate to /team/44/user/22
createUrlTreeFromSnapshot(snapshot, ['../../team/44/user/22']);

Parameter route
The Route to match against.
Returns
The resulting match information or null if the route should not match.

function ɵafterNextNavigation

ɵafterNextNavigation: (
    router: { events: Observable<Event> },
    action: () => void
) => void;

Performs the given action once the router finishes its next/current navigation.
The navigation is considered complete under the following conditions: - NavigationCancel event emits and the code is not NavigationCancellationCode.Redirect or NavigationCancellationCode.SupersededByNewNavigation. In these cases, the redirecting/superseding navigation must finish. - NavigationError, NavigationEnd, or NavigationSkipped event emits

function ɵloadChildren

ɵloadChildren: (
    route: Route,
    compiler: Compiler,
    parentInjector: Injector,
    onLoadEndListener?: (r: Route) => void
) => Observable<LoadedRouterConfig>;

Executes a route.loadChildren callback and converts the result to an array of child routes and an injector if that callback returned a module.
This function is used for the route discovery during prerendering in @angular-devkit/build-angular. If there are any updates to the contract here, it will require an update to the extractor.

function provideRouter

provideRouter: (
    routes: Routes,
    ...features: RouterFeatures[]
) => EnvironmentProviders;

Sets up providers necessary to enable Router functionality for the application. Allows to configure a set of routes as well as extra features that should be enabled.
Basic example of how you can add a Router to your application:
const appRoutes: Routes = []; bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, { providers: [provideRouter(appRoutes)] });
You can also enable optional features in the Router by adding functions from the RouterFeatures type:
const appRoutes: Routes = []; bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, { providers: [ provideRouter(appRoutes, withDebugTracing(), withRouterConfig({paramsInheritanceStrategy: 'always'})) ] } );
Parameter routes
A set of Routes to use for the application routing table.
Parameter features
Optional features to configure additional router behaviors.
Returns
A set of providers to setup a Router.
See Also
- RouterFeatures

function provideRoutes

provideRoutes: (routes: Routes) => Provider[];

Registers a DI provider for a set of routes.
Parameter routes
The route configuration to provide.
@NgModule({ providers: [provideRoutes(ROUTES)] }) class LazyLoadedChildModule {}
See Also
- ROUTES
Deprecated
If necessary, provide routes using the ROUTES InjectionToken.

function withComponentInputBinding

withComponentInputBinding: () => ComponentInputBindingFeature;

Enables binding information from the Router state directly to the inputs of the component in Route configurations.
Basic example of how you can enable the feature:
const appRoutes: Routes = []; bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, { providers: [ provideRouter(appRoutes, withComponentInputBinding()) ] } );
The router bindings information from any of the following sources:
- query parameters - path and matrix parameters - static route data - data from resolvers
Duplicate keys are resolved in the same order from above, from least to greatest, meaning that resolvers have the highest precedence and override any of the other information from the route.
Importantly, when an input does not have an item in the route data with a matching key, this input is set to undefined. This prevents previous information from being retained if the data got removed from the route (i.e. if a query parameter is removed). Default values can be provided with a resolver on the route to ensure the value is always present or an input and use an input transform in the component.
Returns
A set of providers for use with provideRouter.
See Also

function withDebugTracing

withDebugTracing: () => DebugTracingFeature;

Enables logging of all internal navigation events to the console. Extra logging might be useful for debugging purposes to inspect Router event sequence.
Basic example of how you can enable debug tracing:
const appRoutes: Routes = []; bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, { providers: [ provideRouter(appRoutes, withDebugTracing()) ] } );
Returns
A set of providers for use with provideRouter.
See Also
- provideRouter

function withDisabledInitialNavigation

withDisabledInitialNavigation: () => DisabledInitialNavigationFeature;

Disables initial navigation.
Use if there is a reason to have more control over when the router starts its initial navigation due to some complex initialization logic.
Basic example of how you can disable initial navigation:
const appRoutes: Routes = []; bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, { providers: [ provideRouter(appRoutes, withDisabledInitialNavigation()) ] } );
Returns
A set of providers for use with provideRouter.
See Also
- provideRouter

function withEnabledBlockingInitialNavigation

withEnabledBlockingInitialNavigation: () => EnabledBlockingInitialNavigationFeature;

Configures initial navigation to start before the root component is created.
The bootstrap is blocked until the initial navigation is complete. This should be set in case you use [server-side rendering](guide/ssr), but do not enable [hydration](guide/hydration) for your application.
Basic example of how you can enable this navigation behavior:
const appRoutes: Routes = []; bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, { providers: [ provideRouter(appRoutes, withEnabledBlockingInitialNavigation()) ] } );
Returns
A set of providers for use with provideRouter.
See Also
- provideRouter

function withHashLocation

withHashLocation: () => RouterHashLocationFeature;

Provides the location strategy that uses the URL fragment instead of the history API.
Basic example of how you can use the hash location option:
const appRoutes: Routes = []; bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, { providers: [ provideRouter(appRoutes, withHashLocation()) ] } );
Returns
A set of providers for use with provideRouter.
See Also
- provideRouter

function withInMemoryScrolling

withInMemoryScrolling: (
    options?: InMemoryScrollingOptions
) => InMemoryScrollingFeature;

Enables customizable scrolling behavior for router navigations.
Basic example of how you can enable scrolling feature:
const appRoutes: Routes = []; bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, { providers: [ provideRouter(appRoutes, withInMemoryScrolling()) ] } );
Parameter options
Set of configuration parameters to customize scrolling behavior, see InMemoryScrollingOptions for additional information.
Returns
A set of providers for use with provideRouter.
See Also
- provideRouter
- ViewportScroller

function withNavigationErrorHandler

withNavigationErrorHandler: (
    handler: (error: NavigationError) => unknown | RedirectCommand
) => NavigationErrorHandlerFeature;

Provides a function which is called when a navigation error occurs.
This function is run inside application's [injection context](guide/di/dependency-injection-context) so you can use the [inject](api/core/inject) function.
This function can return a RedirectCommand to convert the error to a redirect, similar to returning a UrlTree or RedirectCommand from a guard. This will also prevent the Router from emitting NavigationError; it will instead emit NavigationCancel with code NavigationCancellationCode.Redirect. Return values other than RedirectCommand are ignored and do not change any behavior with respect to how the Router handles the error.
Basic example of how you can use the error handler option:
const appRoutes: Routes = []; bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, { providers: [ provideRouter(appRoutes, withNavigationErrorHandler((e: NavigationError) => inject(MyErrorTracker).trackError(e))) ] } );
Returns
A set of providers for use with provideRouter.
See Also

function withPreloading

withPreloading: (
    preloadingStrategy: Type<PreloadingStrategy>
) => PreloadingFeature;

Allows to configure a preloading strategy to use. The strategy is configured by providing a reference to a class that implements a PreloadingStrategy.
Basic example of how you can configure preloading:
const appRoutes: Routes = []; bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, { providers: [ provideRouter(appRoutes, withPreloading(PreloadAllModules)) ] } );
Parameter preloadingStrategy
A reference to a class that implements a PreloadingStrategy that should be used.
Returns
A set of providers for use with provideRouter.
See Also
- provideRouter

function withRouterConfig

withRouterConfig: (options: RouterConfigOptions) => RouterConfigurationFeature;

Allows to provide extra parameters to configure Router.
Basic example of how you can provide extra configuration options:
const appRoutes: Routes = []; bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, { providers: [ provideRouter(appRoutes, withRouterConfig({ onSameUrlNavigation: 'reload' })) ] } );
Parameter options
A set of parameters to configure Router, see RouterConfigOptions for additional information.
Returns
A set of providers for use with provideRouter.
See Also
- provideRouter

function withViewTransitions

withViewTransitions: (
    options?: ViewTransitionsFeatureOptions
) => ViewTransitionsFeature;

Enables view transitions in the Router by running the route activation and deactivation inside of document.startViewTransition.
Note: The View Transitions API is not available in all browsers. If the browser does not support view transitions, the Router will not attempt to start a view transition and continue processing the navigation as usual.
Basic example of how you can enable the feature:
const appRoutes: Routes = []; bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, { providers: [ provideRouter(appRoutes, withViewTransitions()) ] } );
Returns
A set of providers for use with provideRouter.

Classes

class ActivatedRoute

class ActivatedRoute {}

Provides access to information about a route associated with a component that is loaded in an outlet. Use to traverse the RouterState tree and extract information from nodes.
The following example shows how to construct a component using information from a currently activated route.
Note: the observables in this class only emit when the current and previous values differ based on shallow equality. For example, changing deeply nested properties in resolved data will not cause the ActivatedRoute.data Observable to emit a new value.

class BaseRouteReuseStrategy

abstract class BaseRouteReuseStrategy implements RouteReuseStrategy {}

This base route reuse strategy only reuses routes when the matched router configs are identical. This prevents components from being destroyed and recreated when just the route parameters, query parameters or fragment change (that is, the existing component is _reused_).
This strategy does not store any routes for later reuse.
Angular uses this strategy by default.
It can be used as a base class for custom route reuse strategies, i.e. you can create your own class that extends the BaseRouteReuseStrategy one.

method retrieve

retrieve: (route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot) => DetachedRouteHandle | null;

Returns null because this strategy does not store routes for later re-use.

method shouldAttach

shouldAttach: (route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot) => boolean;

Returns false, meaning the route (and its subtree) is never reattached

method shouldDetach

shouldDetach: (route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot) => boolean;

Whether the given route should detach for later reuse. Always returns false for BaseRouteReuseStrategy.

method shouldReuseRoute

shouldReuseRoute: (
    future: ActivatedRouteSnapshot,
    curr: ActivatedRouteSnapshot
) => boolean;

Determines if a route should be reused. This strategy returns true when the future route config and current route config are identical.

method store

store: (
    route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot,
    detachedTree: DetachedRouteHandle
) => void;

A no-op; the route is never stored since this strategy never detaches routes for later re-use.

class ChildActivationEnd

class ChildActivationEnd {}

Called when a RouterOutlet directive is instantiated

method onChildOutletDestroyed

onChildOutletDestroyed: (childName: string) => void;

Called when a RouterOutlet directive is destroyed. We need to keep the context as the outlet could be destroyed inside a NgIf and might be re-created later.

method onOutletDeactivated

onOutletDeactivated: () => Map<string, OutletContext>;

Called when the corresponding route is deactivated during navigation. Because the component get destroyed, all children outlet are destroyed.

method onOutletReAttached

    url: string,
    reason: string,
    code?: NavigationSkippedCode
);

property code

readonly code?: NavigationSkippedCode;

    navigationTrigger?: NavigationTrigger,
    restoredState?: { [k: string]: any; navigationId: number }
);

property navigationTrigger

navigationTrigger?: NavigationTrigger;

See Also

property restoredState

restoredState?: { [k: string]: any; navigationId: number };

The navigation state that was previously supplied to the pushState call, when the navigation is triggered by a popstate event. Otherwise null.
The state object is defined by NavigationExtras, and contains any developer-defined state value, as well as a unique ID that the router assigns to every router transition/navigation.
From the perspective of the router, the router never "goes back". When the user clicks on the back button in the browser, a new navigation ID is created.
Use the ID in this previous-state object to differentiate between a newly created state and one returned to by a popstate event, so that you can restore some remembered state, such as scroll position.

Parameter commands

Parameter navigationExtras

Options that control the navigation strategy.

Returns

The new URL tree.

// create /team/33/user/11
router.createUrlTree(['/team', 33, 'user', 11]);

// create /team/33;expand=true/user/11
router.createUrlTree(['/team', 33, {expand: true}, 'user', 11]);

// you can collapse static segments like this (this works only with the first passed-in value):
router.createUrlTree(['/team/33/user', userId]);

// If the first segment can contain slashes, and you do not want the router to split it,
// you can do the following:
router.createUrlTree([{segmentPath: '/one/two'}]);

// create /team/33/(user/11//right:chat)
router.createUrlTree(['/team', 33, {outlets: {primary: 'user/11', right: 'chat'}}]);

// remove the right secondary node
router.createUrlTree(['/team', 33, {outlets: {primary: 'user/11', right: null}}]);

// assuming the current url is `/team/33/user/11` and the route points to `user/11`

  constructor(public router: Router) {
    router.events.pipe(
       filter((e: Event | RouterEvent): e is RouterEvent => e instanceof RouterEvent)
    ).subscribe((e: RouterEvent) => {
      // Do something
    });
  }
}

constructor

constructor(id: number, url: string);

property id

id: number;

A unique ID that the router assigns to every router navigation.

property url

url: string;

The URL that is the destination for this navigation.

class RouterLink

class RouterLink implements OnChanges, OnDestroy {}

When applied to an element in a template, makes that element a link that initiates navigation to a route. Navigation opens one or more routed components in one or more <router-outlet> locations on the page.
Given a route configuration [{ path: 'user/:name', component: UserCmp }], the following creates a static link to the route: <a routerLink="/user/bob">link to user component</a>
You can use dynamic values to generate the link. For a dynamic link, pass an array of path segments, followed by the params for each segment. For example, ['/team', teamId, 'user', userName, {details: true}] generates a link to /team/11/user/bob;details=true.
Multiple static segments can be merged into one term and combined with dynamic segments. For example, ['/team/11/user', userName, {details: true}]
The input that you provide to the link is treated as a delta to the current URL. For instance, suppose the current URL is /user/(box//aux:team). The link <a [routerLink]="['/user/jim']">Jim</a> creates the URL /user/(jim//aux:team). See Router#createUrlTree for more information.
You can use absolute or relative paths in a link, set query parameters, control how parameters are handled, and keep a history of navigation states.
### Relative link paths
The first segment name can be prepended with /, ./, or ../. * If the first segment begins with /, the router looks up the route from the root of the app. * If the first segment begins with ./, or doesn't begin with a slash, the router looks in the children of the current activated route. * If the first segment begins with ../, the router goes up one level in the route tree.
### Setting and handling query params and fragments
The following link adds a query parameter and a fragment to the generated URL:
<a [routerLink]="['/user/bob']" [queryParams]="{debug: true}" fragment="education"> link to user component </a>
By default, the directive constructs the new URL using the given query parameters. The example generates the link: /user/bob?debug=true#education.
You can instruct the directive to handle query parameters differently by specifying the queryParamsHandling option in the link. Allowed values are:
- 'merge': Merge the given queryParams into the current query params. - 'preserve': Preserve the current query params.
For example:
<a [routerLink]="['/user/bob']" [queryParams]="{debug: true}" queryParamsHandling="merge"> link to user component </a>
queryParams, fragment, queryParamsHandling, preserveFragment, and relativeTo cannot be used when the routerLink input is a UrlTree.
See UrlCreationOptions#queryParamsHandling.
### Preserving navigation history
You can provide a state value to be persisted to the browser's [History.state property](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/History#Properties). For example:
<a [routerLink]="['/user/bob']" [state]="{tracingId: 123}"> link to user component </a>
Use Router#getCurrentNavigation to retrieve a saved navigation-state value. For example, to capture the tracingId during the NavigationStart event:
// Get NavigationStart events router.events.pipe(filter(e => e instanceof NavigationStart)).subscribe(e => { const navigation = router.getCurrentNavigation(); tracingService.trace({id: navigation.extras.state.tracingId}); });

class RouterLinkActive

class RouterLinkActive implements OnChanges, OnDestroy, AfterContentInit {}

Tracks whether the linked route of an element is currently active, and allows you to specify one or more CSS classes to add to the element when the linked route is active.
Use this directive to create a visual distinction for elements associated with an active route. For example, the following code highlights the word "Bob" when the router activates the associated route:
<a routerLink="/user/bob" routerLinkActive="active-link">Bob</a>
Whenever the URL is either '/user' or '/user/bob', the "active-link" class is added to the anchor tag. If the URL changes, the class is removed.
You can set more than one class using a space-separated string or an array. For example:
<a routerLink="/user/bob" routerLinkActive="class1 class2">Bob</a> <a routerLink="/user/bob" [routerLinkActive]="['class1', 'class2']">Bob</a>
To add the classes only when the URL matches the link exactly, add the option exact: true:
<a routerLink="/user/bob" routerLinkActive="active-link" [routerLinkActiveOptions]="{exact: true}">Bob</a>
To directly check the isActive status of the link, assign the RouterLinkActive instance to a template variable. For example, the following checks the status without assigning any CSS classes:
<a routerLink="/user/bob" routerLinkActive #rla="routerLinkActive"> Bob {{ rla.isActive ? '(already open)' : ''}} </a>
You can apply the RouterLinkActive directive to an ancestor of linked elements. For example, the following sets the active-link class on the <div> parent tag when the URL is either '/user/jim' or '/user/bob'.
<div routerLinkActive="active-link" [routerLinkActiveOptions]="{exact: true}"> <a routerLink="/user/jim">Jim</a> <a routerLink="/user/bob">Bob</a> </div>
The RouterLinkActive directive can also be used to set the aria-current attribute to provide an alternative distinction for active elements to visually impaired users.
For example, the following code adds the 'active' class to the Home Page link when it is indeed active and in such case also sets its aria-current attribute to 'page':
<a routerLink="/" routerLinkActive="active" ariaCurrentWhenActive="page">Home Page</a>

class RouterLinkWithHref

class RouterLink implements OnChanges, OnDestroy {}

When applied to an element in a template, makes that element a link that initiates navigation to a route. Navigation opens one or more routed components in one or more <router-outlet> locations on the page.
Given a route configuration [{ path: 'user/:name', component: UserCmp }], the following creates a static link to the route: <a routerLink="/user/bob">link to user component</a>
You can use dynamic values to generate the link. For a dynamic link, pass an array of path segments, followed by the params for each segment. For example, ['/team', teamId, 'user', userName, {details: true}] generates a link to /team/11/user/bob;details=true.
Multiple static segments can be merged into one term and combined with dynamic segments. For example, ['/team/11/user', userName, {details: true}]
The input that you provide to the link is treated as a delta to the current URL. For instance, suppose the current URL is /user/(box//aux:team). The link <a [routerLink]="['/user/jim']">Jim</a> creates the URL /user/(jim//aux:team). See Router#createUrlTree for more information.
You can use absolute or relative paths in a link, set query parameters, control how parameters are handled, and keep a history of navigation states.
### Relative link paths
The first segment name can be prepended with /, ./, or ../. * If the first segment begins with /, the router looks up the route from the root of the app. * If the first segment begins with ./, or doesn't begin with a slash, the router looks in the children of the current activated route. * If the first segment begins with ../, the router goes up one level in the route tree.
### Setting and handling query params and fragments
The following link adds a query parameter and a fragment to the generated URL:
<a [routerLink]="['/user/bob']" [queryParams]="{debug: true}" fragment="education"> link to user component </a>
By default, the directive constructs the new URL using the given query parameters. The example generates the link: /user/bob?debug=true#education.
You can instruct the directive to handle query parameters differently by specifying the queryParamsHandling option in the link. Allowed values are:
- 'merge': Merge the given queryParams into the current query params. - 'preserve': Preserve the current query params.
For example:
<a [routerLink]="['/user/bob']" [queryParams]="{debug: true}" queryParamsHandling="merge"> link to user component </a>
queryParams, fragment, queryParamsHandling, preserveFragment, and relativeTo cannot be used when the routerLink input is a UrlTree.
See UrlCreationOptions#queryParamsHandling.
### Preserving navigation history
You can provide a state value to be persisted to the browser's [History.state property](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/History#Properties). For example:
<a [routerLink]="['/user/bob']" [state]="{tracingId: 123}"> link to user component </a>
Use Router#getCurrentNavigation to retrieve a saved navigation-state value. For example, to capture the tracingId during the NavigationStart event:
// Get NavigationStart events router.events.pipe(filter(e => e instanceof NavigationStart)).subscribe(e => { const navigation = router.getCurrentNavigation(); tracingService.trace({id: navigation.extras.state.tracingId}); });

class RouterModule

class RouterModule {}

Adds directives and providers for in-app navigation among views defined in an application. Use the Angular Router service to declaratively specify application states and manage state transitions.
You can import this NgModule multiple times, once for each lazy-loaded bundle. However, only one Router service can be active. To ensure this, there are two ways to register routes when importing this module:
* The forRoot() method creates an NgModule that contains all the directives, the given routes, and the Router service itself. * The forChild() method creates an NgModule that contains all the directives and the given routes, but does not include the Router service.
See Also
- [Routing and Navigation guide](guide/routing/common-router-tasks) for an overview of how the Router service should be used.

method forChild

static forChild: (routes: Routes) => ModuleWithProviders<RouterModule>;

Creates a module with all the router directives and a provider registering routes, without creating a new Router service. When registering for submodules and lazy-loaded submodules, create the NgModule as follows:
@NgModule({ imports: [RouterModule.forChild(ROUTES)] }) class MyNgModule {}
Parameter routes
An array of Route objects that define the navigation paths for the submodule. The new NgModule.

method forRoot

static forRoot: (
    routes: Routes,
    config?: ExtraOptions
) => ModuleWithProviders<RouterModule>;

Creates and configures a module with all the router providers and directives. Optionally sets up an application listener to perform an initial navigation.
When registering the NgModule at the root, import as follows:
@NgModule({ imports: [RouterModule.forRoot(ROUTES)] }) class MyNgModule {}
Parameter routes
An array of Route objects that define the navigation paths for the application.
Parameter config
An ExtraOptions configuration object that controls how navigation is performed. The new NgModule.

class RouterOutlet

class RouterOutlet implements OnDestroy, OnInit, RouterOutletContract {}

Acts as a placeholder that Angular dynamically fills based on the current router state.
Each outlet can have a unique name, determined by the optional name attribute. The name cannot be set or changed dynamically. If not set, default value is "primary".
<router-outlet></router-outlet> <router-outlet name='left'></router-outlet> <router-outlet name='right'></router-outlet>
Named outlets can be the targets of secondary routes. The Route object for a secondary route has an outlet property to identify the target outlet:
{path: <base-path>, component: <component>, outlet: <target_outlet_name>}
Using named outlets and secondary routes, you can target multiple outlets in the same RouterLink directive.
The router keeps track of separate branches in a navigation tree for each named outlet and generates a representation of that tree in the URL. The URL for a secondary route uses the following syntax to specify both the primary and secondary routes at the same time:
http://base-path/primary-route-path(outlet-name:route-path)
A router outlet emits an activate event when a new component is instantiated, deactivate event when a component is destroyed. An attached event emits when the RouteReuseStrategy instructs the outlet to reattach the subtree, and the detached event emits when the RouteReuseStrategy instructs the outlet to detach the subtree.
<router-outlet (activate)='onActivate($event)' (deactivate)='onDeactivate($event)' (attach)='onAttach($event)' (detach)='onDetach($event)'></router-outlet>

class RouterPreloader

class RouterPreloader implements OnDestroy {}

The preloader optimistically loads all router configurations to make navigations into lazily-loaded sections of the application faster.
The preloader runs in the background. When the router bootstraps, the preloader starts listening to all navigation events. After every such event, the preloader will check if any configurations can be loaded lazily.
If a route is protected by canLoad guards, the preloaded will not load it.

class RouterState

class RouterState extends Tree<ActivatedRoute> {}

Represents the state of the router as a tree of activated routes.
Every node in the route tree is an ActivatedRoute instance that knows about the "consumed" URL segments, the extracted parameters, and the resolved data. Use the ActivatedRoute properties to traverse the tree from any node.
The following fragment shows how a component gets the root node of the current state to establish its own route tree:
@Component({templateUrl:'template.html'}) class MyComponent { constructor(router: Router) { const state: RouterState = router.routerState; const root: ActivatedRoute = state.root; const child = root.firstChild; const id: Observable<string> = child.params.map(p => p.id); //... } }

method toString

toString: () => string;

class RouterStateSnapshot

class RouterStateSnapshot extends Tree<ActivatedRouteSnapshot> {}

Represents the state of the router at a moment in time.

This is a tree of activated route snapshots. Every node in this tree knows about the "consumed" URL segments, the extracted parameters, and the resolved data.

The following example shows how a component is initialized with information from the snapshot of the root node's state at the time of creation.

@Component({templateUrl:'template.html'})
class MyComponent {
  constructor(router: Router) {
    const state: RouterState = router.routerState;
    const snapshot: RouterStateSnapshot = state.snapshot;
    const root: ActivatedRouteSnapshot = snapshot.root;
    const child = root.firstChild;

    //...
  }
}

class TitleStrategy

abstract class TitleStrategy {}

Provides a strategy for setting the page title after a router navigation.
The built-in implementation traverses the router state snapshot and finds the deepest primary outlet with title property. Given the Routes below, navigating to /base/child(popup:aux) would result in the document title being set to "child".
[ {path: 'base', title: 'base', children: [ {path: 'child', title: 'child'}, ], {path: 'aux', outlet: 'popup', title: 'popupTitle'} ]
This class can be used as a base class for custom title strategies. That is, you can create your own class that extends the TitleStrategy. Note that in the above example, the title from the named outlet is never used. However, a custom strategy might be implemented to incorporate titles in named outlets.

method extract

abstract extract: (url: UrlTree) => UrlTree;

Extracts the part of the URL that should be handled by the router. The rest of the URL will remain untouched.

method merge

abstract merge: (newUrlPart: UrlTree, rawUrl: UrlTree) => UrlTree;

Merges the URL fragment with the rest of the URL.

method shouldProcessUrl

abstract shouldProcessUrl: (url: UrlTree) => boolean;

Tells the router if this URL should be processed.
When it returns true, the router will execute the regular navigation. When it returns false, the router will set the router state to an empty state. As a result, all the active components will be destroyed.

class UrlSegment

class UrlSegment {}

Represents a single URL segment.

A UrlSegment is a part of a URL between the two slashes. It contains a path and the matrix parameters associated with the segment.

### Example

@Component({templateUrl:'template.html'})
class MyComponent {
  constructor(router: Router) {
    const tree: UrlTree = router.parseUrl('/team;id=33');
    const g: UrlSegmentGroup = tree.root.children[PRIMARY_OUTLET];
    const s: UrlSegment[] = g.segments;
    s[0].path; // returns 'team'
    s[0].parameters; // returns {id: 33}
  }
}

constructor

constructor(path: string, parameters: { [name: string]: string });

property parameterMap

readonly parameterMap: ParamMap;

property parameters

parameters: { [name: string]: string };

See UrlTree for more information.

constructor

constructor(
    segments: UrlSegment[],
    children: { [key: string]: UrlSegmentGroup }
);

property children

children: { [key: string]: UrlSegmentGroup };

class UrlSerializer

abstract class UrlSerializer {}

Serializes and deserializes a URL string into a URL tree.
The url serialization strategy is customizable. You can make all URLs case insensitive by providing a custom UrlSerializer.
See DefaultUrlSerializer for an example of a URL serializer.

property ɵfac

static ɵfac: i0.ɵɵFactoryDeclaration<UrlSerializer, never>;

property ɵprov

static ɵprov: i0.ɵɵInjectableDeclaration<UrlSerializer>;

method parse

abstract parse: (url: string) => UrlTree;

Parse a url into a UrlTree

method serialize

abstract serialize: (tree: UrlTree) => string;

Converts a UrlTree into a url

class UrlTree

class UrlTree {}

Represents the parsed URL.

Since a router state is a tree, and the URL is nothing but a serialized state, the URL is a serialized tree. UrlTree is a data structure that provides a lot of affordances in dealing with URLs

### Example

@Component({templateUrl:'template.html'})
class MyComponent {
  constructor(router: Router) {
    const tree: UrlTree =
      router.parseUrl('/team/33/(user/victor//support:help)?debug=true#fragment');
    const f = tree.fragment; // return 'fragment'
    const q = tree.queryParams; // returns {debug: 'true'}
    const g: UrlSegmentGroup = tree.root.children[PRIMARY_OUTLET];
    const s: UrlSegment[] = g.segments; // returns 2 segments 'team' and '33'
    g.children[PRIMARY_OUTLET].segments; // returns 2 segments 'user' and 'victor'
    g.children['support'].segments; // return 1 segment 'help'
  }
}

Interfaces

interface CanActivate

interface CanActivate {}

Interface that a class can implement to be a guard deciding if a route can be activated. If all guards return true, navigation continues. If any guard returns false, navigation is cancelled. If any guard returns a UrlTree, the current navigation is cancelled and a new navigation begins to the UrlTree returned from the guard.

The following example implements a CanActivate function that checks whether the current user has permission to activate the requested route.

class UserToken {}
class Permissions {
  canActivate(): boolean {
    return true;
  }
}

@Injectable()
class CanActivateTeam implements CanActivate {
  constructor(private permissions: Permissions, private currentUser: UserToken) {}

  canActivate(
    route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot,
    state: RouterStateSnapshot
  ): MaybeAsync<GuardResult> {
    return this.permissions.canActivate(this.currentUser, route.params.id);
  }
}

Here, the defined guard function is provided as part of the Route object in the router configuration:

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    RouterModule.forRoot([
      {
        path: 'team/:id',
        component: TeamComponent,
        canActivate: [CanActivateTeam]
      }
    ])
  ],
  providers: [CanActivateTeam, UserToken, Permissions]
})
class AppModule {}

method canActivate

canActivate: (
    route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot,
    state: RouterStateSnapshot
) => MaybeAsync<GuardResult>;

interface CanActivateChild

interface CanActivateChild {}

Interface that a class can implement to be a guard deciding if a child route can be activated. If all guards return true, navigation continues. If any guard returns false, navigation is cancelled. If any guard returns a UrlTree, current navigation is cancelled and a new navigation begins to the UrlTree returned from the guard.

The following example implements a CanActivateChild function that checks whether the current user has permission to activate the requested child route.

class UserToken {}
class Permissions {
  canActivate(user: UserToken, id: string): boolean {
    return true;
  }
}

@Injectable()
class CanActivateTeam implements CanActivateChild {
  constructor(private permissions: Permissions, private currentUser: UserToken) {}

  canActivateChild(
    route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot,
    state: RouterStateSnapshot

          {
             path: 'team/:id',
             component: TeamComponent
          }
        ]
      }
    ])
  ],
  providers: [CanActivateTeam, UserToken, Permissions]
})
class AppModule {}

method canActivateChild

canActivateChild: (
    childRoute: ActivatedRouteSnapshot,
    state: RouterStateSnapshot
) => MaybeAsync<GuardResult>;

interface CanDeactivate

interface CanDeactivate<T> {}

Interface that a class can implement to be a guard deciding if a route can be deactivated. If all guards return true, navigation continues. If any guard returns false, navigation is cancelled. If any guard returns a UrlTree, current navigation is cancelled and a new navigation begins to the UrlTree returned from the guard.

The following example implements a CanDeactivate function that checks whether the current user has permission to deactivate the requested route.

class UserToken {}
class Permissions {
  canDeactivate(user: UserToken, id: string): boolean {
    return true;
  }
}

Here, the defined guard function is provided as part of the Route object in the router configuration:

@Injectable()
class CanDeactivateTeam implements CanDeactivate<TeamComponent> {
  constructor(private permissions: Permissions, private currentUser: UserToken) {}

  canDeactivate(
    component: TeamComponent,
    currentRoute: ActivatedRouteSnapshot,

    return this.permissions.canDeactivate(this.currentUser, route.params.id);
  }
}

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    RouterModule.forRoot([
      {
        path: 'team/:id',
        component: TeamComponent,
        canDeactivate: [CanDeactivateTeam]
      }
    ])
  ],
  providers: [CanDeactivateTeam, UserToken, Permissions]
})
class AppModule {}

method canDeactivate

canDeactivate: (
    component: T,
    currentRoute: ActivatedRouteSnapshot,
    currentState: RouterStateSnapshot,
    nextState: RouterStateSnapshot
) => MaybeAsync<GuardResult>;

interface CanLoad

interface CanLoad {}

Interface that a class can implement to be a guard deciding if children can be loaded. If all guards return true, navigation continues. If any guard returns false, navigation is cancelled. If any guard returns a UrlTree, current navigation is cancelled and a new navigation starts to the UrlTree returned from the guard.

The following example implements a CanLoad function that decides whether the current user has permission to load requested child routes.

class UserToken {}
class Permissions {
  canLoadChildren(user: UserToken, id: string, segments: UrlSegment[]): boolean {
    return true;
  }
}

@Injectable()
class CanLoadTeamSection implements CanLoad {
  constructor(private permissions: Permissions, private currentUser: UserToken) {}

  canLoad(route: Route, segments: UrlSegment[]): Observable<boolean>|Promise<boolean>|boolean {
    return this.permissions.canLoadChildren(this.currentUser, route, segments);
  }
}

Here, the defined guard function is provided as part of the Route object in the router configuration:

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    RouterModule.forRoot([
      {
        path: 'team/:id',
        component: TeamComponent,
        loadChildren: () => import('./team').then(mod => mod.TeamModule),
        canLoad: [CanLoadTeamSection]
      }
    ])
  ],
  providers: [CanLoadTeamSection, UserToken, Permissions]
})
class AppModule {}

Deprecated

Use CanMatch instead

method canLoad

canLoad: (route: Route, segments: UrlSegment[]) => MaybeAsync<GuardResult>;

interface CanMatch

interface CanMatch {}

Interface that a class can implement to be a guard deciding if a Route can be matched. If all guards return true, navigation continues and the Router will use the Route during activation. If any guard returns false, the Route is skipped for matching and other Route configurations are processed instead.

The following example implements a CanMatch function that decides whether the current user has permission to access the users page.

class UserToken {}
class Permissions {
  canAccess(user: UserToken, route: Route, segments: UrlSegment[]): boolean {
    return true;
  }
}

@Injectable()
class CanMatchTeamSection implements CanMatch {
  constructor(private permissions: Permissions, private currentUser: UserToken) {}

  canMatch(route: Route, segments: UrlSegment[]): Observable<boolean>|Promise<boolean>|boolean {
    return this.permissions.canAccess(this.currentUser, route, segments);
  }
}

Here, the defined guard function is provided as part of the Route object in the router configuration:

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    RouterModule.forRoot([
      {
        path: 'team/:id',
        component: TeamComponent,
        loadChildren: () => import('./team').then(mod => mod.TeamModule),
        canMatch: [CanMatchTeamSection]
      },
      {
        path: '**',
        component: NotFoundComponent
      }
    ])
  ],
  providers: [CanMatchTeamSection, UserToken, Permissions]
})
class AppModule {}

If the CanMatchTeamSection were to return false, the router would continue navigating to the team/:id URL, but would load the NotFoundComponent because the Route for 'team/:id' could not be used for a URL match but the catch-all ** Route did instead.

method canMatch

canMatch: (route: Route, segments: UrlSegment[]) => MaybeAsync<GuardResult>;

property errorHandler

errorHandler?: (error: any) => RedirectCommand | any;

A custom error handler for failed navigations. If the handler returns a value, the navigation Promise is resolved with this value. If the handler throws an exception, the navigation Promise is rejected with the exception.
See Also
- RouterConfigOptions

property initialNavigation

initialNavigation?: InitialNavigation;

One of enabled, enabledBlocking, enabledNonBlocking or disabled. When set to enabled or enabledBlocking, the initial navigation starts before the root component is created. The bootstrap is blocked until the initial navigation is complete. This value should be set in case you use [server-side rendering](guide/ssr), but do not enable [hydration](guide/hydration) for your application. When set to enabledNonBlocking, the initial navigation starts after the root component has been created. The bootstrap is not blocked on the completion of the initial navigation. When set to disabled, the initial navigation is not performed. The location listener is set up before the root component gets created. Use if there is a reason to have more control over when the router starts its initial navigation due to some complex initialization logic.

property preloadingStrategy

preloadingStrategy?: any;

Configures a preloading strategy. One of PreloadAllModules or NoPreloading (the default).

property scrollOffset

scrollOffset?: [number, number] | (() => [number, number]);

Configures the scroll offset the router will use when scrolling to an element.
When given a tuple with x and y position value, the router uses that offset each time it scrolls. When given a function, the router invokes the function every time it restores scroll position.

property useHash

useHash?: boolean;

When true, enable the location strategy that uses the URL fragment instead of the history API.

interface InMemoryScrollingOptions

interface InMemoryScrollingOptions {}

Configuration options for the scrolling feature which can be used with withInMemoryScrolling function.

property anchorScrolling

anchorScrolling?: 'disabled' | 'enabled';

When set to 'enabled', scrolls to the anchor element when the URL has a fragment. Anchor scrolling is disabled by default.
Anchor scrolling does not happen on 'popstate'. Instead, we restore the position that we stored or scroll to the top.

property scrollPositionRestoration

scrollPositionRestoration?: 'disabled' | 'enabled' | 'top';

Configures if the scroll position needs to be restored when navigating back.

* 'disabled'- (Default) Does nothing. Scroll position is maintained on navigation. * 'top'- Sets the scroll position to x = 0, y = 0 on all navigation. * 'enabled'- Restores the previous scroll position on backward navigation, else sets the position to the anchor if one is provided, or sets the scroll position to [0, 0] (forward navigation). This option will be the default in the future.

You can implement custom scroll restoration behavior by adapting the enabled behavior as in the following example.

class AppComponent {
  movieData: any;

  constructor(private router: Router, private viewportScroller: ViewportScroller,
changeDetectorRef: ChangeDetectorRef) {
  router.events.pipe(filter((event: Event): event is Scroll => event instanceof Scroll)
    ).subscribe(e => {
      fetch('http://example.com/movies.json').then(response => {
        this.movieData = response.json();
        // update the template with the data before restoring scroll
        changeDetectorRef.detectChanges();

        if (e.position) {
          viewportScroller.scrollToPosition(e.position);
        }
      });
    });
  }
}

interface IsActiveMatchOptions

interface IsActiveMatchOptions {}

A set of options which specify how to determine if a UrlTree is active, given the UrlTree for the current router state.
See Also
- Router#isActive

property fragment

fragment: 'exact' | 'ignored';

- 'exact': indicates that the UrlTree fragments must be equal. - 'ignored': the fragments will not be compared when determining if a UrlTree is active.

property matrixParams

matrixParams: 'exact' | 'subset' | 'ignored';

Defines the strategy for comparing the matrix parameters of two UrlTrees.
The matrix parameter matching is dependent on the strategy for matching the segments. That is, if the paths option is set to 'subset', only the matrix parameters of the matching segments will be compared.
- 'exact': Requires that matching segments also have exact matrix parameter matches. - 'subset': The matching segments in the router's active UrlTree may contain extra matrix parameters, but those that exist in the UrlTree in question must match. - 'ignored': When comparing UrlTrees, matrix params will be ignored.

property paths

paths: 'exact' | 'subset';

Defines the strategy for comparing the UrlSegments of the UrlTrees.
- 'exact': all segments in each UrlTree must match. - 'subset': a UrlTree will be determined to be active if it is a subtree of the active route. That is, the active route may contain extra segments, but must at least have all the segments of the UrlTree in question.

property queryParams

queryParams: 'exact' | 'subset' | 'ignored';

Defines the strategy for comparing the query parameters of two UrlTrees.
- 'exact': the query parameters must match exactly. - 'subset': the active UrlTree may contain extra parameters, but must match the key and value of any that exist in the UrlTree in question. - 'ignored': When comparing UrlTrees, query params will be ignored.

interface Navigation {}

Information about a navigation operation. Retrieve the most recent navigation object with the [Router.getCurrentNavigation() method](api/router/Router#getcurrentnavigation) .
* *id* : The unique identifier of the current navigation. * *initialUrl* : The target URL passed into the Router#navigateByUrl() call before navigation. This is the value before the router has parsed or applied redirects to it. * *extractedUrl* : The initial target URL after being parsed with UrlSerializer.extract(). * *finalUrl* : The extracted URL after redirects have been applied. This URL may not be available immediately, therefore this property can be undefined. It is guaranteed to be set after the RoutesRecognized event fires. * *trigger* : Identifies how this navigation was triggered. -- 'imperative'--Triggered by router.navigateByUrl or router.navigate. -- 'popstate'--Triggered by a popstate event. -- 'hashchange'--Triggered by a hashchange event. * *extras* : A NavigationExtras options object that controlled the strategy used for this navigation. * *previousNavigation* : The previously successful Navigation object. Only one previous navigation is available, therefore this previous Navigation object has a null value for its own previousNavigation.

extractedUrl: UrlTree;

The initial target URL after being parsed with UrlHandlingStrategy.extract().

extras: NavigationExtras;

Options that controlled the strategy used for this navigation. See NavigationExtras.

finalUrl?: UrlTree;

The extracted URL after redirects have been applied. This URL may not be available immediately, therefore this property can be undefined. It is guaranteed to be set after the RoutesRecognized event fires.

id: number;

The unique identifier of the current navigation.

initialUrl: UrlTree;

The target URL passed into the Router#navigateByUrl() call before navigation. This is the value before the router has parsed or applied redirects to it.

previousNavigation: Navigation | null;

The previously successful Navigation object. Only one previous navigation is available, therefore this previous Navigation object has a null value for its own previousNavigation.

trigger: 'imperative' | 'popstate' | 'hashchange';

Identifies how this navigation was triggered.
* 'imperative'--Triggered by router.navigateByUrl or router.navigate. * 'popstate'--Triggered by a popstate event. * 'hashchange'--Triggered by a hashchange event.

interface NavigationBehaviorOptions

interface NavigationBehaviorOptions {}

Options that modify the Router navigation strategy. Supply an object containing any of these properties to a Router navigation function to control how the navigation should be handled.
See Also
- Router#navigate
- Router#navigateByUrl
- [Routing and Navigation guide](guide/routing/common-router-tasks)

property browserUrl

readonly browserUrl?: UrlTree | string;

When set, the Router will update the browser's address bar to match the given UrlTree instead of the one used for route matching.
This feature is useful for redirects, such as redirecting to an error page, without changing the value that will be displayed in the browser's address bar.
const canActivate: CanActivateFn = (route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot) => { const userService = inject(UserService); const router = inject(Router); if (!userService.isLoggedIn()) { const targetOfCurrentNavigation = router.getCurrentNavigation()?.finalUrl; const redirect = router.parseUrl('/404'); return new RedirectCommand(redirect, {browserUrl: targetOfCurrentNavigation}); } return true; };
This value is used directly, without considering any UrlHandingStrategy. In this way, browserUrl can also be used to use a different value for the browser URL than what would have been produced by from the navigation due to UrlHandlingStrategy.merge.
This value only affects the path presented in the browser's address bar. It does not apply to the internal Router state. Information such as params and data will match the internal state used to match routes which will be different from the browser URL when using this feature The same is true when using other APIs that cause the browser URL the differ from the Router state, such as skipLocationChange.

property info

readonly info?: unknown;

Use this to convey transient information about this particular navigation, such as how it happened. In this way, it's different from the persisted value state that will be set to history.state. This object is assigned directly to the Router's current Navigation (it is not copied or cloned), so it should be mutated with caution.
One example of how this might be used is to trigger different single-page navigation animations depending on how a certain route was reached. For example, consider a photo gallery app, where you can reach the same photo URL and state via various routes:
- Clicking on it in a gallery view - Clicking - "next" or "previous" when viewing another photo in the album - Etc.
Each of these wants a different animation at navigate time. This information doesn't make sense to store in the persistent URL or history entry state, but it's still important to communicate from the rest of the application, into the router.
This information could be used in coordination with the View Transitions feature and the onViewTransitionCreated callback. The information might be used in the callback to set classes on the document in order to control the transition animations and remove the classes when the transition has finished animating.

property onSameUrlNavigation

onSameUrlNavigation?: OnSameUrlNavigation;

How to handle a navigation request to the current URL.
This value is a subset of the options available in OnSameUrlNavigation and will take precedence over the default value set for the Router.
See Also
- OnSameUrlNavigation
- RouterConfigOptions

property replaceUrl

replaceUrl?: boolean;

When true, navigates while replacing the current state in history.

// Navigate to /view
this.router.navigate(['/view'], { replaceUrl: true });

property skipLocationChange

skipLocationChange?: boolean;

When true, navigates without pushing a new state into history.

// Navigate silently to /view
this.router.navigate(['/view'], { skipLocationChange: true });

property state

state?: {
    [k: string]: any;
};

Developer-defined state that can be passed to any navigation. Access this value through the Navigation.extras object returned from the [Router.getCurrentNavigation() method](api/router/Router#getcurrentnavigation) while a navigation is executing.
After a navigation completes, the router writes an object containing this value together with a navigationId to history.state. The value is written when location.go() or location.replaceState() is called before activating this route.
Note that history.state does not pass an object equality test because the router adds the navigationId on each navigation.

interface NavigationExtras

interface NavigationExtras extends UrlCreationOptions, NavigationBehaviorOptions {}

Options that modify the Router navigation strategy. Supply an object containing any of these properties to a Router navigation function to control how the target URL should be constructed or interpreted.

- Router#navigate
- Router#navigateByUrl
- Router#createurltree

interface ParamMap

interface ParamMap {}

A map that provides access to the required and optional parameters specific to a route. The map supports retrieving a single value with get() or multiple values with getAll().
See Also
- [URLSearchParams](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/URLSearchParams)

property keys

readonly keys: string[];

Names of the parameters in the map.

method get

get: (name: string) => string | null;

Retrieves a single value for a parameter.
Parameter name
The parameter name. The parameter's single value, or the first value if the parameter has multiple values, or null when there is no such parameter.

method getAll

getAll: (name: string) => string[];

Retrieves multiple values for a parameter.
Parameter name
The parameter name. An array containing one or more values, or an empty array if there is no such parameter.

method has

has: (name: string) => boolean;

Reports whether the map contains a given parameter.
Parameter name
The parameter name.
Returns
True if the map contains the given parameter, false otherwise.

interface Resolve

interface Resolve<T> {}

Interface that classes can implement to be a data provider. A data provider class can be used with the router to resolve data during navigation. The interface defines a resolve() method that is invoked right after the ResolveStart router event. The router waits for the data to be resolved before the route is finally activated.

The following example implements a resolve() method that retrieves the data needed to activate the requested route.

@Injectable({ providedIn: 'root' })
export class HeroResolver implements Resolve<Hero> {
  constructor(private service: HeroService) {}

  resolve(
    route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot,
    state: RouterStateSnapshot
  ): Observable<Hero>|Promise<Hero>|Hero {
    return this.service.getHero(route.paramMap.get('id'));
  }
}

Here, the defined resolve() function is provided as part of the Route object in the router configuration:

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    RouterModule.forRoot([
      {
        path: 'detail/:id',
        component: HeroDetailComponent,
        resolve: {
          hero: HeroResolver
        }
      }
    ])
  ],
  exports: [RouterModule]
})
export class AppRoutingModule {}

And you can access to your resolved data from HeroComponent:

@Component({
 selector: "app-hero",
 templateUrl: "hero.component.html",
})
export class HeroComponent {

 constructor(private activatedRoute: ActivatedRoute) {}

 ngOnInit() {
   this.activatedRoute.data.subscribe(({ hero }) => {
     // do something with your resolved data ...
   })
 }

}

When both guard and resolvers are specified, the resolvers are not executed until all guards have run and succeeded. For example, consider the following route configuration:

{
 path: 'base'
 canActivate: [BaseGuard],
 resolve: {data: BaseDataResolver}
 children: [
  {
    path: 'child',
    guards: [ChildGuard],
    component: ChildComponent,
    resolve: {childData: ChildDataResolver}
   }
 ]
}

The order of execution is: BaseGuard, ChildGuard, BaseDataResolver, ChildDataResolver.

method resolve

resolve: (
    route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot,
    state: RouterStateSnapshot
) => MaybeAsync<T | RedirectCommand>;

interface Route

interface Route {}

A configuration object that defines a single route. A set of routes are collected in a Routes array to define a Router configuration. The router attempts to match segments of a given URL against each route, using the configuration options defined in this object.
Supports static, parameterized, redirect, and wildcard routes, as well as custom route data and resolve methods.
For detailed usage information, see the [Routing Guide](guide/routing/common-router-tasks).
### Simple Configuration
The following route specifies that when navigating to, for example, /team/11/user/bob, the router creates the 'Team' component with the 'User' child component in it.
[{ path: 'team/:id', component: Team, children: [{ path: 'user/:name', component: User }] }]
### Multiple Outlets
The following route creates sibling components with multiple outlets. When navigating to /team/11(aux:chat/jim), the router creates the 'Team' component next to the 'Chat' component. The 'Chat' component is placed into the 'aux' outlet.
[{ path: 'team/:id', component: Team }, { path: 'chat/:user', component: Chat outlet: 'aux' }]
### Wild Cards
The following route uses wild-card notation to specify a component that is always instantiated regardless of where you navigate to.
[{ path: '**', component: WildcardComponent }]
### Redirects
The following route uses the redirectTo property to ignore a segment of a given URL when looking for a child path.
When navigating to '/team/11/legacy/user/jim', the router changes the URL segment '/team/11/legacy/user/jim' to '/team/11/user/jim', and then instantiates the Team component with the User child component in it.
[{ path: 'team/:id', component: Team, children: [{ path: 'legacy/user/:name', redirectTo: 'user/:name' }, { path: 'user/:name', component: User }] }]
The redirect path can be relative, as shown in this example, or absolute. If we change the redirectTo value in the example to the absolute URL segment '/user/:name', the result URL is also absolute, '/user/jim'.
### Empty Path
Empty-path route configurations can be used to instantiate components that do not 'consume' any URL segments.
In the following configuration, when navigating to /team/11, the router instantiates the 'AllUsers' component.
[{ path: 'team/:id', component: Team, children: [{ path: '', component: AllUsers }, { path: 'user/:name', component: User }] }]
Empty-path routes can have children. In the following example, when navigating to /team/11/user/jim, the router instantiates the wrapper component with the user component in it.
Note that an empty path route inherits its parent's parameters and data.
[{ path: 'team/:id', component: Team, children: [{ path: '', component: WrapperCmp, children: [{ path: 'user/:name', component: User }] }] }]
### Matching Strategy
The default path-match strategy is 'prefix', which means that the router checks URL elements from the left to see if the URL matches a specified path. For example, '/team/11/user' matches 'team/:id'.
[{ path: '', pathMatch: 'prefix', //default redirectTo: 'main' }, { path: 'main', component: Main }]
You can specify the path-match strategy 'full' to make sure that the path covers the whole unconsumed URL. It is important to do this when redirecting empty-path routes. Otherwise, because an empty path is a prefix of any URL, the router would apply the redirect even when navigating to the redirect destination, creating an endless loop.
In the following example, supplying the 'full' pathMatch strategy ensures that the router applies the redirect if and only if navigating to '/'.
[{ path: '', pathMatch: 'full', redirectTo: 'main' }, { path: 'main', component: Main }]
### Componentless Routes
You can share parameters between sibling components. For example, suppose that two sibling components should go next to each other, and both of them require an ID parameter. You can accomplish this using a route that does not specify a component at the top level.
In the following example, 'MainChild' and 'AuxChild' are siblings. When navigating to 'parent/10/(a//aux:b)', the route instantiates the main child and aux child components next to each other. For this to work, the application component must have the primary and aux outlets defined.
[{ path: 'parent/:id', children: [ { path: 'a', component: MainChild }, { path: 'b', component: AuxChild, outlet: 'aux' } ] }]
The router merges the parameters, data, and resolve of the componentless parent into the parameters, data, and resolve of the children.
This is especially useful when child components are defined with an empty path string, as in the following example. With this configuration, navigating to '/parent/10' creates the main child and aux components.
[{ path: 'parent/:id', children: [ { path: '', component: MainChild }, { path: '', component: AuxChild, outlet: 'aux' } ] }]
### Lazy Loading
Lazy loading speeds up application load time by splitting the application into multiple bundles and loading them on demand. To use lazy loading, provide the loadChildren property in the Route object, instead of the children property.
Given the following example route, the router will lazy load the associated module on demand using the browser native import system.
[{ path: 'lazy', loadChildren: () => import('./lazy-route/lazy.module').then(mod => mod.LazyModule), }];

property canActivate

canActivate?: Array<CanActivateFn | DeprecatedGuard>;

An array of CanActivateFn or DI tokens used to look up CanActivate() handlers, in order to determine if the current user is allowed to activate the component. By default, any user can activate.
When using a function rather than DI tokens, the function can call inject to get any required dependencies. This inject call must be done in a synchronous context.

property canActivateChild

canActivateChild?: Array<CanActivateChildFn | DeprecatedGuard>;

An array of CanActivateChildFn or DI tokens used to look up CanActivateChild() handlers, in order to determine if the current user is allowed to activate a child of the component. By default, any user can activate a child.
When using a function rather than DI tokens, the function can call inject to get any required dependencies. This inject call must be done in a synchronous context.

property canDeactivate

canDeactivate?: Array<CanDeactivateFn<any> | DeprecatedGuard>;

An array of CanDeactivateFn or DI tokens used to look up CanDeactivate() handlers, in order to determine if the current user is allowed to deactivate the component. By default, any user can deactivate.
When using a function rather than DI tokens, the function can call inject to get any required dependencies. This inject call must be done in a synchronous context.

property canLoad

canLoad?: Array<CanLoadFn | DeprecatedGuard>;

An array of CanLoadFn or DI tokens used to look up CanLoad() handlers, in order to determine if the current user is allowed to load the component. By default, any user can load.
When using a function rather than DI tokens, the function can call inject to get any required dependencies. This inject call must be done in a synchronous context.
Deprecated
Use canMatch instead

property canMatch

canMatch?: Array<CanMatchFn | DeprecatedGuard>;

An array of CanMatchFn or DI tokens used to look up CanMatch() handlers, in order to determine if the current user is allowed to match the Route. By default, any route can match.
When using a function rather than DI tokens, the function can call inject to get any required dependencies. This inject call must be done in a synchronous context.

property children

children?: Routes;

An array of child Route objects that specifies a nested route configuration.

property component

component?: Type<any>;

The component to instantiate when the path matches. Can be empty if child routes specify components.

property data

data?: Data;

Additional developer-defined data provided to the component via ActivatedRoute. By default, no additional data is passed.

property loadChildren

loadChildren?: LoadChildren;

An object specifying lazy-loaded child routes.

property loadComponent

loadComponent?: () =>
    | Type<unknown>
    | Observable<Type<unknown> | DefaultExport<Type<unknown>>>
    | Promise<Type<unknown> | DefaultExport<Type<unknown>>>;

An object specifying a lazy-loaded component.

property matcher

matcher?: UrlMatcher;

A custom URL-matching function. Cannot be used together with path.

property outlet

outlet?: string;

Name of a RouterOutlet object where the component can be placed when the path matches.

property path

path?: string;

The path to match against. Cannot be used together with a custom matcher function. A URL string that uses router matching notation. Can be a wild card (**) that matches any URL (see Usage Notes below). Default is "/" (the root path).

property pathMatch

pathMatch?: 'prefix' | 'full';

The path-matching strategy, one of 'prefix' or 'full'. Default is 'prefix'.
By default, the router checks URL elements from the left to see if the URL matches a given path and stops when there is a config match. Importantly there must still be a config match for each segment of the URL. For example, '/team/11/user' matches the prefix 'team/:id' if one of the route's children matches the segment 'user'. That is, the URL '/team/11/user' matches the config {path: 'team/:id', children: [{path: ':user', component: User}]} but does not match when there are no children as in {path: 'team/:id', component: Team}.
The path-match strategy 'full' matches against the entire URL. It is important to do this when redirecting empty-path routes. Otherwise, because an empty path is a prefix of any URL, the router would apply the redirect even when navigating to the redirect destination, creating an endless loop.

property providers

providers?: Array<Provider | EnvironmentProviders>;

A Provider array to use for this Route and its children.
The Router will create a new EnvironmentInjector for this Route and use it for this Route and its children. If this route also has a loadChildren function which returns an NgModuleRef, this injector will be used as the parent of the lazy loaded module.

property redirectTo

redirectTo?: string | RedirectFunction;

A URL or function that returns a URL to redirect to when the path matches.
Absolute if the URL begins with a slash (/) or the function returns a UrlTree, otherwise relative to the path URL.
The RedirectFunction is run in an injection context so it can call inject to get any required dependencies.
When not present, router does not redirect.

property resolve

resolve?: ResolveData;

A map of DI tokens used to look up data resolvers. See Resolve.

property runGuardsAndResolvers

runGuardsAndResolvers?: RunGuardsAndResolvers;

A policy for when to run guards and resolvers on a route.
Guards and/or resolvers will always run when a route is activated or deactivated. When a route is unchanged, the default behavior is the same as paramsChange.
paramsChange : Rerun the guards and resolvers when path or path param changes. This does not include query parameters. This option is the default. - always : Run on every execution. - pathParamsChange : Rerun guards and resolvers when the path params change. This does not compare matrix or query parameters. - paramsOrQueryParamsChange : Run when path, matrix, or query parameters change. - pathParamsOrQueryParamsChange : Rerun guards and resolvers when the path params change or query params have changed. This does not include matrix parameters.
See Also
- RunGuardsAndResolvers

property title

title?: string | Type<Resolve<string>> | ResolveFn<string>;

Used to define a page title for the route. This can be a static string or an Injectable that implements Resolve.
See Also
- TitleStrategy

interface RouterConfigOptions

interface RouterConfigOptions {}

Extra configuration options that can be used with the withRouterConfig function.

property canceledNavigationResolution

canceledNavigationResolution?: 'replace' | 'computed';

Configures how the Router attempts to restore state when a navigation is cancelled.
'replace' - Always uses location.replaceState to set the browser state to the state of the router before the navigation started. This means that if the URL of the browser is updated _before_ the navigation is canceled, the Router will simply replace the item in history rather than trying to restore to the previous location in the session history. This happens most frequently with urlUpdateStrategy: 'eager' and navigations with the browser back/forward buttons.
'computed' - Will attempt to return to the same index in the session history that corresponds to the Angular route when the navigation gets cancelled. For example, if the browser back button is clicked and the navigation is cancelled, the Router will trigger a forward navigation and vice versa.
Note: the 'computed' option is incompatible with any UrlHandlingStrategy which only handles a portion of the URL because the history restoration navigates to the previous place in the browser history rather than simply resetting a portion of the URL.
The default value is replace when not set.

property defaultQueryParamsHandling

defaultQueryParamsHandling?: QueryParamsHandling;

The default strategy to use for handling query params in Router.createUrlTree when one is not provided.
The createUrlTree method is used internally by Router.navigate and RouterLink. Note that QueryParamsHandling does not apply to Router.navigateByUrl.
When neither the default nor the queryParamsHandling option is specified in the call to createUrlTree, the current parameters will be replaced by new parameters.
See Also
- Router#createUrlTree
- QueryParamsHandling

property onSameUrlNavigation

onSameUrlNavigation?: OnSameUrlNavigation;

Configures the default for handling a navigation request to the current URL.
If unset, the Router will use 'ignore'.
See Also
- OnSameUrlNavigation

property paramsInheritanceStrategy

paramsInheritanceStrategy?: 'emptyOnly' | 'always';

Defines how the router merges parameters, data, and resolved data from parent to child routes.
By default ('emptyOnly'), a route inherits the parent route's parameters when the route itself has an empty path (meaning its configured with path: '') or when the parent route doesn't have any component set.
Set to 'always' to enable unconditional inheritance of parent parameters.
Note that when dealing with matrix parameters, "parent" refers to the parent Route config which does not necessarily mean the "URL segment to the left". When the Route path contains multiple segments, the matrix parameters must appear on the last segment. For example, matrix parameters for {path: 'a/b', component: MyComp} should appear as a/b;foo=bar and not a;foo=bar/b.

property resolveNavigationPromiseOnError

resolveNavigationPromiseOnError?: boolean;

When true, the Promise will instead resolve with false, as it does with other failed navigations (for example, when guards are rejected).
Otherwise the Promise returned by the Router's navigation with be rejected if an error occurs.

property urlUpdateStrategy

urlUpdateStrategy?: 'deferred' | 'eager';

Defines when the router updates the browser URL. By default ('deferred'), update after successful navigation. Set to 'eager' if prefer to update the URL at the beginning of navigation. Updating the URL early allows you to handle a failure of navigation by showing an error message with the URL that failed.

interface RouterFeature

interface RouterFeature<FeatureKind extends RouterFeatureKind> {}

Helper type to represent a Router feature.

property ɵkind

ɵkind: FeatureKind;

property ɵproviders

ɵproviders: Array<Provider | EnvironmentProviders>;

interface RouterOutletContract

interface RouterOutletContract {}

An interface that defines the contract for developing a component outlet for the Router.
An outlet acts as a placeholder that Angular dynamically fills based on the current router state.
A router outlet should register itself with the Router via ChildrenOutletContexts#onChildOutletCreated and unregister with ChildrenOutletContexts#onChildOutletDestroyed. When the Router identifies a matched Route, it looks for a registered outlet in the ChildrenOutletContexts and activates it.
See Also
- ChildrenOutletContexts

property activatedRoute

activatedRoute: ActivatedRoute | null;

The ActivatedRoute for the outlet or null if the outlet is not activated.

property activatedRouteData

activatedRouteData: Data;

The Data of the ActivatedRoute snapshot.

property activateEvents

activateEvents?: EventEmitter<unknown>;

Emits an activate event when a new component is instantiated

property attachEvents

attachEvents?: EventEmitter<unknown>;

Emits an attached component instance when the RouteReuseStrategy instructs to re-attach a previously detached subtree.

property component

component: Object | null;

The instance of the activated component or null if the outlet is not activated.

property deactivateEvents

deactivateEvents?: EventEmitter<unknown>;

Emits a deactivate event when a component is destroyed.

property detachEvents

detachEvents?: EventEmitter<unknown>;

Emits a detached component instance when the RouteReuseStrategy instructs to detach the subtree.

property isActivated

isActivated: boolean;

Whether the given outlet is activated.
An outlet is considered "activated" if it has an active component.

property supportsBindingToComponentInputs

readonly supportsBindingToComponentInputs?: true;

Used to indicate that the outlet is able to bind data from the Router to the outlet component's inputs.
When this is undefined or false and the developer has opted in to the feature using withComponentInputBinding, a warning will be logged in dev mode if this outlet is used in the application.

method activateWith

activateWith: (
    activatedRoute: ActivatedRoute,
    environmentInjector: EnvironmentInjector
) => void;

Called by the Router when the outlet should activate (create a component).

method attach

attach: (ref: ComponentRef<unknown>, activatedRoute: ActivatedRoute) => void;

Called when the RouteReuseStrategy instructs to re-attach a previously detached subtree.

method deactivate

deactivate: () => void;

A request to destroy the currently activated component.
When a RouteReuseStrategy indicates that an ActivatedRoute should be removed but stored for later re-use rather than destroyed, the Router will call detach instead.

method detach

detach: () => ComponentRef<unknown>;

Called when the RouteReuseStrategy instructs to detach the subtree.
This is similar to deactivate, but the activated component should _not_ be destroyed. Instead, it is returned so that it can be reattached later via the attach method.

interface UrlCreationOptions

interface UrlCreationOptions {}

Options that modify the Router URL. Supply an object containing any of these properties to a Router navigation function to control how the target URL should be constructed.
See Also
- Router#navigate
- Router#createUrlTree
- [Routing and Navigation guide](guide/routing/common-router-tasks)

property fragment

fragment?: string;

Sets the hash fragment for the URL.

// Navigate to /results#top
router.navigate(['/results'], { fragment: 'top' });

property preserveFragment

preserveFragment?: boolean;

When true, preserves the URL fragment for the next navigation

// Preserve fragment from /results#top to /view#top
router.navigate(['/view'], { preserveFragment: true });

property queryParams

queryParams?: Params | null;

Sets query parameters to the URL.

// Navigate to /results?page=1
router.navigate(['/results'], { queryParams: { page: 1 } });

property queryParamsHandling

queryParamsHandling?: QueryParamsHandling | null;

How to handle query parameters in the router link for the next navigation. One of: * preserve : Preserve current parameters. * merge : Merge new with current parameters.
The "preserve" option discards any new query params:
// from /view1?page=1 to/view2?page=1 router.navigate(['/view2'], { queryParams: { page: 2 }, queryParamsHandling: "preserve" });
The "merge" option appends new query params to the params from the current URL:
// from /view1?page=1 to/view2?page=1&otherKey=2 router.navigate(['/view2'], { queryParams: { otherKey: 2 }, queryParamsHandling: "merge" });
In case of a key collision between current parameters and those in the queryParams object, the new value is used.

property relativeTo

relativeTo?: ActivatedRoute | null;

Specifies a root URI to use for relative navigation.

For example, consider the following route configuration where the parent route has two children.

[{
  path: 'parent',
  component: ParentComponent,
  children: [{
    path: 'list',
    component: ListComponent
  },{
    path: 'child',
    component: ChildComponent

}]

The following go() function navigates to the list route by interpreting the destination URI as relative to the activated child route

 @Component({...})
 class ChildComponent {
   constructor(private router: Router, private route: ActivatedRoute) {}

   go() {
     router.navigate(['../list'], { relativeTo: this.route });
   }
 }

A value of null or undefined indicates that the navigation commands should be applied relative to the root.

type CanActivateFn

type CanActivateFn = (
    route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot,
    state: RouterStateSnapshot
) => MaybeAsync<GuardResult>;

The signature of a function used as a canActivate guard on a Route.

If all guards return true, navigation continues. If any guard returns false, navigation is cancelled. If any guard returns a UrlTree, the current navigation is cancelled and a new navigation begins to the UrlTree returned from the guard.

The following example implements and uses a CanActivateFn that checks whether the current user has permission to activate the requested route.

@Injectable()
class UserToken {}

@Injectable()
class PermissionsService {
  canActivate(currentUser: UserToken, userId: string): boolean {

* 'enabledNonBlocking' - (default) The initial navigation starts after the root component has been created. The bootstrap is not blocked on the completion of the initial navigation. * 'enabledBlocking' - The initial navigation starts before the root component is created. The bootstrap is blocked until the initial navigation is complete. This value should be set in case you use [server-side rendering](guide/ssr), but do not enable [hydration](guide/hydration) for your application. * 'disabled' - The initial navigation is not performed. The location listener is set up before the root component gets created. Use if there is a reason to have more control over when the router starts its initial navigation due to some complex initialization logic.

type OnSameUrlNavigation

type OnSameUrlNavigation = 'reload' | 'ignore';

How to handle a navigation request to the current URL. One of:
- 'ignore' : The router ignores the request if it is the same as the current state. - 'reload' : The router processes the URL even if it is not different from the current state. One example of when you might want to use this option is if a canMatch guard depends on the application state and initially rejects navigation to a route. After fixing the state, you want to re-navigate to the same URL so that the route with the canMatch guard can activate.
Note that this only configures whether or not the Route reprocesses the URL and triggers related actions and events like redirects, guards, and resolvers. By default, the router re-uses a component instance when it re-navigates to the same component type without visiting a different component first. This behavior is configured by the RouteReuseStrategy. In order to reload routed components on same url navigation, you need to set onSameUrlNavigation to 'reload' _and_ provide a RouteReuseStrategy which returns false for shouldReuseRoute. Additionally, resolvers and most guards for routes do not run unless the path or path params have changed (configured by runGuardsAndResolvers).

type RedirectFunction

type RedirectFunction = (
    redirectData: Pick<
        ActivatedRouteSnapshot,
        | 'routeConfig'
        | 'url'
        | 'params'
        | 'queryParams'
        | 'fragment'
        | 'data'
        | 'outlet'
        | 'title'
    >
) => string | UrlTree;

The type for the function that can be used to handle redirects when the path matches a Route config.
The RedirectFunction does have access to the full ActivatedRouteSnapshot interface. Some data are not accurately known at the route matching phase. For example, resolvers are not run until later, so any resolved title would not be populated. The same goes for lazy loaded components. This is also true for all the snapshots up to the root, so properties that include parents (root, parent, pathFromRoot) are also excluded. And naturally, the full route matching hasn't yet happened so firstChild and children are not available either.
See Also
- Route#redirectTo

type ResolveData

type ResolveData = {
    [key: string | symbol]: ResolveFn<unknown> | DeprecatedGuard;
};

Represents the resolved data associated with a particular route.
Returning a RedirectCommand directs the router to cancel the current navigation and redirect to the location provided in the RedirectCommand. Note that there are no ordering guarantees when resolvers execute. If multiple resolvers would return a RedirectCommand, only the first one returned will be used.
See Also
- Route#resolve

type ResolveFn

type ResolveFn<T> = (
    route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot,
    state: RouterStateSnapshot
) => MaybeAsync<T | RedirectCommand>;

Function type definition for a data provider.

A data provider can be used with the router to resolve data during navigation. The router waits for the data to be resolved before the route is finally activated.

A resolver can also redirect a RedirectCommand and the Angular router will use it to redirect the current navigation to the new destination.

The following example implements a function that retrieves the data needed to activate the requested route.

interface Hero {
  name: string;
}
@Injectable()
export class HeroService {
  getHero(id: string) {
    return {name: `Superman-${id}`};
  }
}

export const heroResolver: ResolveFn<Hero> = (
  route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot,
  state: RouterStateSnapshot,
) => {
  return inject(HeroService).getHero(route.paramMap.get('id')!);
};

bootstrapApplication(App, {
  providers: [
    provideRouter([
      {
        path: 'detail/:id',
        component: HeroDetailComponent,
        resolve: {hero: heroResolver},
      },
    ]),
  ],
});

And you can access to your resolved data from HeroComponent:

@Component({template: ''})
export class HeroDetailComponent {
  private activatedRoute = inject(ActivatedRoute);

  ngOnInit() {
    this.activatedRoute.data.subscribe(({hero}) => {
      // do something with your resolved data ...
    });
  }
}

If resolved data cannot be retrieved, you may want to redirect the user to a new page instead:

export const heroResolver: ResolveFn<Hero> = async (
  route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot,
  state: RouterStateSnapshot,
) => {
  const router = inject(Router);
  const heroService = inject(HeroService);
  try {
    return await heroService.getHero(route.paramMap.get('id')!);
  } catch {
    return new RedirectCommand(router.parseUrl('/404'));
  }
};

When both guard and resolvers are specified, the resolvers are not executed until all guards have run and succeeded. For example, consider the following route configuration:

{
 path: 'base'
 canActivate: [baseGuard],
 resolve: {data: baseDataResolver}
 children: [
  {
    path: 'child',
    canActivate: [childGuard],
    component: ChildComponent,
    resolve: {childData: childDataResolver}
   }
 ]
}

The order of execution is: baseGuard, childGuard, baseDataResolver, childDataResolver.

    | 'pathParamsOrQueryParamsChange'
    | 'paramsChange'
    | 'paramsOrQueryParamsChange'
    | 'always'
    | ((from: ActivatedRouteSnapshot, to: ActivatedRouteSnapshot) => boolean);

A policy for when to run guards and resolvers on a route.
Guards and/or resolvers will always run when a route is activated or deactivated. When a route is unchanged, the default behavior is the same as paramsChange.
paramsChange : Rerun the guards and resolvers when path or path param changes. This does not include query parameters. This option is the default. - always : Run on every execution. - pathParamsChange : Rerun guards and resolvers when the path params change. This does not compare matrix or query parameters. - paramsOrQueryParamsChange : Run when path, matrix, or query parameters change. - pathParamsOrQueryParamsChange : Rerun guards and resolvers when the path params change or query params have changed. This does not include matrix parameters.

The function takes the following arguments and returns a UrlMatchResult object. * *segments* : An array of URL segments. * *group* : A segment group. * *route* : The route to match against.
The following example implementation matches HTML files.
export function htmlFiles(url: UrlSegment[]) { return url.length === 1 && url[0].path.endsWith('.html') ? ({consumed: url}) : null; } export const routes = [{ matcher: htmlFiles, component: AnyComponent }];

type UrlMatchResult

    consumed: UrlSegment[];
    posParams?: {
        [name: string]: UrlSegment;
    };
};

Represents the result of matching URLs with a custom matching function.
* consumed is an array of the consumed URL segments. * posParams is a map of positional parameters.
