initialRoute property
The name of the first route to show, if a Navigator is built.
Defaults to Window.defaultRouteName, which may be overridden by the code that launched the application.
If the route contains slashes, then it is treated as a "deep link", and
before this route is pushed, the routes leading to this one are pushed
also. For example, if the route was /a/b/c
, then the app would start
with the three routes /a
, /a/b
, and /a/b/c
loaded, in that order.
If any part of this process fails to generate routes, then the
initialRoute is ignored and Navigator.defaultRouteName is used instead
(/
). This can happen if the app is started with an intent that specifies
a non-existent route.
The Navigator is only built if routes are provided (either via home,
routes, onGenerateRoute, or onUnknownRoute); if they are not,
initialRoute must be null and builder must not be null.
See also:
- Navigator.initialRoute, which is used to implement this property.
- Navigator.push, for pushing additional routes.
- Navigator.pop, for removing a route from the stack.
