lit-ui-router / UIRouterLit

Class: UIRouterLit ​

Defined in: packages/lit-ui-router/src/core.ts:206

The main router class for Lit applications.

UIRouterLit extends the core UIRouter class from @uirouter/core, adding Lit-specific view handling and component integration.

Examples ​

ts
import { UIRouterLit } from 'lit-ui-router';
import { hashLocationPlugin } from '@uirouter/core';

// Create router instance
const router = new UIRouterLit();

// Add a location plugin (hash-based or push state)
router.plugin(hashLocationPlugin);

// Register states
router.stateRegistry.register({
  name: 'home',
  url: '/home',
  component: HomeComponent,
});

// Start the router
router.start();
ts
import { UIRouterLit } from 'lit-ui-router';
import { pushStateLocationPlugin } from '@uirouter/core';

const router = new UIRouterLit();
router.plugin(pushStateLocationPlugin);

// Configure base URL for push state
router.urlService.config.baseHref('/app/');

router.start();
