In my app some URLs take the form
/department/:dep/employee/:emp/contacts
In my sidebar I show a list of all employees, each of which has a [routerLink]
which links to that employee's contacts
<ul>
<li>
<a [routerLink]="['/department', 1, 'employee', 1, 'contacts']"></a>
<li>
<li>
<a [routerLink]="['/department', 1, 'employee', 2, 'contacts']"></a>
<li>
...
</ul>
However, with this approach I always need to provide the full path, including all the params (like dep
in the above example) which is quite cumbersome. Is there a way to provide just part of the route, such as
<a [routerLink]="['employee', 2, 'contacts']"></a>
(without the department
part, because I don't really care about department
in that view and my feeling is that this goes against separation of concerns anyway)?
