RouteReuseStrategy

npm Package @angular/router
Module import { RouteReuseStrategy } from '@angular/router';
Source router/src/route_reuse_strategy.ts

Provides a way to customize when activated routes get reused.

Overview

      
      class RouteReuseStrategy {
  shouldDetach(route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot): boolean
  store(route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot, handle: DetachedRouteHandle | null): void
  shouldAttach(route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot): boolean
  retrieve(route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot): DetachedRouteHandle | null
  shouldReuseRoute(future: ActivatedRouteSnapshot, curr: ActivatedRouteSnapshot): boolean
}

Members

      shouldAttach(route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot): boolean

Determines if this route (and its subtree) should be reattached

      
      retrieve(route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot): DetachedRouteHandle | null

Retrieves the previously stored route

      
      shouldReuseRoute(future: ActivatedRouteSnapshot, curr: ActivatedRouteSnapshot): boolean
