Using FlowRouter

If you try to initialize Flow Router in your app without any configuration you'll run into a / is not defined error. This is because it tries to start up FlowRouter before the routes are initialized.

First insert a file into meteor_core/client/lib and place the following code in it:

// Tell FR to wait until our ES6 code is fully initialized
FlowRouter.wait();

Next in the file that you setup your routes place this call after your routes are defined:

// FlowRouter is now ready to go
FlowRouter.initialize();

Full example of routes:

// routes.js

FlowRouter.route('/', {
    name: "Home",
    action: function(params, queryParams) {
      console.log("Home Page")
    },
});

FlowRouter.route('/about', {
    name: "About",
    action: function(params, queryParams) {
      console.log("About page")
    },
});

// FlowRouter is now ready to go
FlowRouter.initialize();
