function UsersVM(start_page){
var self = this;
console.log('start form ' + start_page);
self.go_to = function(page) {
location.hash = '#Users/' + pageNumber;
}
}
Sammy(function() {
this.get('/app/?#Users/:page', function () {
var vm = new UsersVM(this.params.page);
ko.applyBinding(vm);
});
}).run();
I would like to change the page's hash with the following code:
location.hash = '#Users/' + pageNumber;
But in this case Sammy triggers routing. Say in Backbone we can do it this way:
app.navigate("help/troubleshooting", {trigger: false});
Is it possible to do it in Sammy?
Thanks!
I don't know of a native way to do this in Sammy, but here is a solution that has worked for me:
var sam = $.sammy(function () {
var sammy = this; //get a persistent reference to this
sammy.quiet = false; //set quiet to false by default
//I set quiet to true before running a route
sammy.quietRoute = function (location) {
sammy.quiet = true;
sammy.setLocation(location);
}
//I'm called after every route to reset quiet to false
sammy.after(function () {
sammy.quiet = false;
});
//I'm a 'normal' route that does not have the capability to be 'quiet'
this.get('#normalRoute', function () {
//routing code
});
//I am a route that can be 'quieted' so that when the url or
//hash changes my routing code doesn't run
this.get('#quietableRoute', function () {
if (!sammy.quiet) {
//routing code
} else {
return;
}
});
});
Then call the quietRoute function in your code:
//This will work
sam.quietRoute("#quietableRoute");
//This will not work because the "if(!sammy.quiet)..." code has not been
//implemented on this route
sam.quietRoute("#normalRoute");
Use the following code:
var new_location = '#foo';
app.trigger('redirect', {to: new_location});
app.last_location = ['get', new_location];
app.setLocation(new_location);
