In SFRA, if we use react then file extension in pwa-kit is possible or not about pwa-kit

[bfeister]

Hi there. Thanks for reporting, but we will need to clarify exactly what the problem is before we can accept this issue.

I'm going to attempt to rephrase the issue, please tell me if this is correct.

"I want pwa-kit to parse default SFRA urls (for example, those that include .html in the URL path, which in SFRA include categories and products)."

Is this an accurate rephrasing of your question?

If "yes", then we have considered this. Not sure when it will be fixed, but @natemarcus and I can discuss priority and follow up

I want to be clear on one important point: SFRA urls are highly configurable, so capturing all of the different potential URL permutations will ultimately require an extra API call. For this reason, our internal guidance for customers with highly customized URL schemas is that they change their URL structure because the cost of not doing so will be latency and slightly degraded site performance from these extra API calls

To answer the question "is it possible to use .html in a pwa-kit URL path?" (If this is your question), then the answer is yes.

You need to modify the routes.jsx file to achieve this.

You can change this line
https://github.com/SalesforceCommerceCloud/pwa-kit/blob/develop/packages/template-retail-react-app/app/routes.jsx#L86

To the following if you want a product detail URL that ends with .html

path: '/product/:productId.html',

Or something close to this

Hi @bfeister
In SFRA we are extending the functionality of models & scripts of base files, likewise, can we extend the functionality of pwa-kit base-files/code.

@SushmithaA18 it sounds like you're a very early in your exploration and journey with the pwa kit project. We are glad you're here, I'm reaching out!

The very short answer to your question is, yes, absolutely the project is extensible. In many ways, more so than SFRA.

GitHub issues (where we are having this conversation now) is a place for bug reports, not really for questions.

The good news is we have multiple channels for asking questions:

Please follow up there with questions, I'm going to close this issues since GitHub is not the place for the beginning of your journey in learning the platform
