## API
#### `Router`
The `Router` component supplies the `Link` and `Route` descendant components
with routing information through context, so you need at least one `Router` at
the top of your application. It assigns a score to all its `Route` descendants
and picks the best match to render.
`Router` components can also be nested to allow for seamless merging of many
smaller apps.
###### Properties
| Property | Required | Default Value | Description |
| :--------------: | :------: | :-----------: | :---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `basepath` | | `"/"` | The `basepath` property will be added to all the `to` properties of `Link` descendants and to all `path` properties of `Route` descendants. This property can be ignored in most cases, but if you host your application on e.g. `https://example.com/my-site`, the `basepath` should be set to `/my-site`. |
| `url` | | `""` | The `url` property is used in SSR to force the current URL of the application and will be used by all `Link` and `Route` descendants. A falsy value will be ignored by the `Router`, so it's enough to declare `let url = $state("");` for your topmost component and only give it a value in SSR. |
| `viewtransition` | | `null` | View Transition (Experimental) |
#### `Link`
A component used to navigate around the application.
###### Properties
| Property | Required | Default Value | Description |
| :--------------: | :------: | :-----------: | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `to` | ✔ ️ | `"#"` | URL the component should link to. |
| `replace` | | `false` | When `true`, clicking the `Link` will replace the current entry in the history stack instead of adding a new one. |
| `state` | | `{}` | An object that will be pushed to the history stack when the `Link` is clicked. |
| ~~`getProps`~~ | | `() => ({})` | A function that returns an object that will be spread on the underlying anchor element's attributes. The first argument given to the function is an object with the properties `location`, `href`, `isPartiallyCurrent`, `isCurrent`. |
| `preserveScroll` | | `false` | When `true`, clicking the `Link` will not scroll the page to the top. |
#### `Route`
A component that will render its `component` property or children when its
ancestor `Router` component decides it is the best match.
All properties other than `path` and `component` given to the `Route` will be
passed to the rendered `component`.
Potential path parameters will be passed to the rendered `component` as
properties. A wildcard `*` can be given a name with `*wildcardName` to pass the
wildcard string as the `wildcardName` property instead of as the `*` property.
Potential path parameters are passed back to the parent using props, so they can
be exposed to the children snippet.
```html
<Route path="/blog/:id">
{#snippet children(params)}
<BlogPost id="{params.id}" />
{/snippet}
</Route>
```
The active status of link can be exposed to the children snippet.
```html
<Link to="/browser">
{#snippet children(active)}
<MenuItem active={active}>Browser</MenuItem>
{/snippet}
</Link>
```
###### Properties
| Property | Required | Default Value | Description |
| :-------------: | :------: | :------------ | :----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `path` | | `""` | The path for when this component should be rendered. If no `path` is given the `Route` will act as the default that matches if no other `Route` in the `Router` matches. |
| ~~`component`~~ | | `null` | The component constructor that will be used for rendering when the `Route` matches. If `component` is not set, the children of `Route` will be rendered instead. |
| `children` | yes | | children passed inside the element. You can use the children snippet to access any url parameters `{#snippet children(params)}` |
#### `navigate`
A function that allows you to imperatively navigate around the application for
those use cases where a `Link` component is not suitable, e.g. after submitting
a form.
The first argument is a string denoting where to navigate to, and the second
argument is an object with a `replace`, `state` and `preserveScroll` properties equivalent to those
in the `Link` component.
```html
<script>
import { navigate } from "svelte5-router";
function onSubmit() {
login().then(() => {
navigate("/success", { replace: true });
});
}
</script>
```
#### `listen`
A function that allows you to listen to path changes made from `navigate`, `Link` and browser back button.
The argument supplied must be a function that receives a Location object. Use the returned function to unsubscribe the listener.
This function is meant to be used outside a Svelte component. The alternative function is `useLocation`, `useRouter` and `useHistory` where it uses Svelte context to retrieve location, router or history object.
```js
import { listen as addListener } from 'svelte-routing';
function init() {
addListener(({ location }) => {
console.log(location.pathname);
})
}
```
#### `link`
An action used on anchor tags to navigate around the application. You can add an
attribute `replace` to replace the current entry in the history stack instead of
adding a new one and `preserveScroll` to not scroll the page to the top when clicked.
```html
<script>
import { link } from "svelte5-router";
</script>
<Router>
<a href="/" use:link>Home</a>
<a href="/replace" use:link replace>Replace this URL</a>
<!-- ... -->
</Router>
```
#### `links`
An action used on a root element to make all relative anchor elements navigate
around the application. You can add an attribute `replace` on any anchor to
replace the current entry in the history stack instead of adding a new one.
You can add an attribute `preserveScroll` on any anchor to not to scroll the page to the top when clicked. You
can add an attribute `noroute` for this action to skip over the anchor and allow
it to use the native browser action.
```html
<!-- App.svelte -->
<script>
import { links } from "svelte5-router";
</script>
<div use:links>
<Router>
<a href="/">Home</a>
<a href="/replace" replace>Replace this URL</a>
<a href="/native" noroute>Use the native action</a>
<!-- ... -->
</Router>
</div>
```
#### `viewtransition`
Viewtransition for navigation (Experimental).
_`builtin transition`_
```html
<script>
import { fade } from "svelte/transition";
// ...
</script>
<Router viewtransition="{() => { fn: fade, duration: 500 }}">
<Route path="/" component="{Home}" />
<Route path="/contact" component="{Contact}" />
</Router>
```
_`custom transition`_
```html
<script>
import { cubicin } from "svelte/easing";
// ...
</script>
<Router
viewtransition="{() => { duration: 500, easing: cubicin, css: (t) => `scale:${t};transform-origin:center center;` }}"
>
<Route path="/" component="{Home}" />
<Route path="/contact" component="{Contact}" />
</Router>
