aurelia child route with "settings" parameter

I would need to have some settings added to a child route using the aurelia router.

If I add the settings parameter to a main route, when the navigation pipeline goes through the authorize step, I can retrieve the settings using the navigationInstruction.config.settings property.

When navigating to a child route, the authorizeStep gets the route information of the main route with its settings and some information about the child route but no settings...

For instance: if I have the following main route defined in app.ts

{name: 'user', settings: {bla: 'user'}...}

and the following child route defined in user.ts:

{name: 'useredit', settings: {bla: 'edit'}...}

Whether I navigate to the user or useredit route, I always get the following settings object : {bla: 'user'} as the navigation instruction is related to the main route.

How could I get the {bla: 'edit'} settings information when navigating to edit?

I sure hope the answer won't just be "child routes cannot have settings"... :)

thanks!

By calling navigationInstruction.getAllInstructions(), you should get 2 instructions. The first is related to the main route, and the second to the child route, which contains contains the settings: {bla: 'edit'}. For instance:

class AuthorizeStep {
  run(navigationInstruction, next) {
    // all the instructions here!
    let instructions = navigationInstruction.getAllInstructions();
    // ... do something
    return next();
  }
}

Hope this helps!
