Deep Linking, URL switching

[Matt]

On a dev environment, running node... you can easily switch to different urls, for example:

• your-domain.net you might have: {{#link-to 'profile'}}Profile Page{{/link-to}}
• clicking this link will load:  your-domain.net/profile ; Hitting refresh, we're still good!
• However, when you deploy to firebase, you get a different result on reload:
• Hitting refresh on:  your-domain.net/profile will result in page not found.  

Now I know this is because Firebase is a 'static CDN' and 'node' isn't running there.

So my question is, how we enforce the old way with ember to use hashes... for example:

your-domain.net/#profile

so we can reload the page? Or is there a better way of doing this?

Hi Matt,

You can set up a rewrite rule in firebase.json that will do this for you:

"rewrites": [ {
  "source": "**",
  "destination": "/index.html"
} ]

This rule makes all deep link urls hit the index.html, just like when using ember serve

Hope that helps!

Tim
