Regexp routes redirecting

[ivan-suhorukov]

Now, when i use a RegExp routes, i cannot use openPage or redirectPage functions. Router throws RegExp routes are not supported. So may be we can support this by adding second converter to route? Something like this:

export const $router = createRouter({
  profile: [/\/(student|teacher|manager)\/profile/, (urlRole) => { return { role: urlRole }}, (urlRole) => `/${urlRole}/profile`],
                                                                                 where it is  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
})

So router can determine the redirect url and do redirect?

Is it better just pass URL to router.open(url)?

Defining function looks like pretty complex thing.

router.open(url) uses hard-coded url`s, so maybe better to user $router as a one source of truth?

When i change the route then, i dont need to change all of the router.open(url) calls.

Do you really often change URLs?

We can add this feature, let’s see how many bytes it takes and how it will affect complexity of types and logic.
