Can I delete a page programmatically?

Question

Hi All,

I wanted to know if we can delete the page routes that we create using the @ui.page.

For ex: I was testing some menu buttons and so I did a simple page function like this:

@ui.page('/{icon}')
def icon_page(icon):
    ui.label(f'This page is for {icon}')

This is just for me to test out if the button clicks were working and the pages were opening etc, because I was trying to insert my buttons in middle of a long code.

Now that is done, is there a way to delete the pages? I mean even if I remove the functions, the pages are already created and I can manually type in the URL and still access them. I guess one way is to restart the app.

But is there a way to programmatically delete the pages from python?

Thanks,
Anindya

We use something like this

app.routes[:] = [routes for routes in app.routes if routes.path != '/home']

Which will remove the /home page from FastAPI.

You can also use

from nicegui import app

app.remove_route('/home')
