Missing Back Button after refresh on web about auto_route_library

[JonasJW]

@Milad-Akarie that's perfect! Thank you very much!

Just letting you know, in the docs it says "This of course requires includePrefixMatches to be true in the root config (default is true)", while the default value is actually !kIsWeb.

@JonasJW where do you expect/home/child to pop to?

[JonasJW]

@Milad-Akarie I would expect it to pop to /home as the ChildRoute is a child of the HomeRoute. This is how GoRouter handles it and routers of other frameworks.

Btw, I very much appreciate your work! AutoRoute is a great package and I would really like to use it in my app, I just have a few minor issues like this one but overall it's already much easier to use as GoRouter.

@JonasJW does HomeRoute have an AutoRouter widget inside of it? your setup doesn't make sense

[JonasJW]

@Milad-Akarie no it does not. Why doesn't it make sense? This is just a random example but it can be applied to many use cases, such as having a UserListPage and opening a specific UserProfile as a child route. I don't see why having another AutoRouter inside the UserListPage would be necessary when it would work just as well with the root AutoRouter (except the described issue)

You need an AutoRouter widget to render child routes

[JonasJW]

@Milad-Akarie Thanks for clarifying, I must have miss understood this.

However, the issue still persists. I don't want to use nested routers by having an AutoRouter on my HomePage. I want to use the same route for the ChildRoute and HomeRoute.

Am I correct that the routes should then look like this:

AutoRoute(
  path: "/home",
  page: HomeRoute.page,
  initial: true,
),
AutoRoute(
  path: "/home/child",
  page: ChildRoute.page,
  initial: false,
),

If I do this and open the app at /home/child/ the app starts at the HomePage. I would expect it to show the ChildPage and include a back button that pops to /home, i.e. the HomePage.

[Milad-Akarie]

@JonasJW with the current setup you only have to set includePrefixMatches to true inside router.config()

Ya must've forgotten to change that
