Relative child-routing

[niwrA]

The tutorial ends with suggesting that you can use .person instead of people.person for relative addressing. I could not get this to work however (it works otherwise). Is that a bug? Or am I just missing something?

I just checked the plunker and it actually does use relative links:

components/people.ts

          <li *ngFor="let person of people">
            <a uiSref=".person" [uiParams]="{ personId: person.id }">
              {{person.name}}
            </a>
          </li>

What troubles are you having?

[niwrA]

I have to use people.person, or it simply won't work.

My biggest problem right now though, which may make me return to regular Angular 2 routing, is that the angular cli can't compile with the UIRouter.ForRoot() line in there. If I add it back after ng serve it runs fine. Also, when I enter a route in the address bar, it doesn't work. Only the routing through uiSref links works at the moment. Presumably I'm overlooking something.

HI! Try this temporary solution for Angular cli #13

@kolkov would you mind posting how you solved it? The repo posted in #13 is a 404 :(

@niwrA you should try this in your UI Router Config

import {UIRouter} from "ui-router-ng2";
import {Injectable} from "@angular/core";

@Injectable()
export class MyRootUIRouterConfig {
  constructor(uiRouter: UIRouter) {
    //disable the trailing slash
    uiRouter.urlMatcherFactory.strictMode(false);
    //disable the case sensitivity
    uiRouter.urlMatcherFactory.caseInsensitive(true);

  }
}

There is now a nontrivial sample app built with the Angular-CLI.
