Issue while navigating to the same page with RouterExtensions

[TheOnlyMatt]

Hi,

I am facing an issue when needing to navigate from a component to the same component, with different data.
After some googling I found the NSRouteReuseStrategy class which should do the job, but I have no idea how to use it in my component.

According to my understanding of the Angular’s method, I did this :

 constructor(
        private nsrrs: NSRouteReuseStrategy,
        private routerExtensions : RouterExtensions
    ){
        this.nsrrs.shouldReuseRoute = function(){
            return false;
        }
}

but this makes my app crash at startup.

What is the correct way for navigating forward / backward between the same component with RouterExtensions ?

Hi @TheOnlyMatt,
Thank you for contacting us.
We reviewed your case, however, it seems that there is a bug with the RouterExtentions, while navigating to the same page. I am attaching a sample project, which could be used for debugging.

In the meantime, you could use the Angular router and subscribe to the NavigationEnd event, which will allow you to handle and apply the changes to the page. For your convenience, I am attaching the project, which demonstrates this case.

I already tried to use the NG router, it worked fine to navigate in the between the same component, but it seems to break the NS router, that is why I wanted to keep the NS router which I use everywhere in my app.

I found a way to achieve what I needed, following the help on this thread : https://discourse.nativescript.org/t/how-to-use-nsroutereusestrategy/4834/10

Although I don't know if it is the point you were talking about, but I think there might exist a bug when combining NG Router and NS Router for routing on the same component.
