My app's RouterModule isn't lazy loading posts-CodePudding

I am learning Angular and as a practice project, I am developing a front-end interface (with angular 13) for a Wordpress API served from a Docker container.

The angular app has to display the list of all posts obtained from the API and by making use of routing, once clicked on a post, in /post/:id:/:slug/ should be shown only the post requested.

My project's code:

and these are some logs of what is being called:

When a post is clicked (for example the one titled Hello World), the url in the address bar changes correctly to host:port/post/1/hello-world and the following is called:

but the page's content doesn't change. The clicked post isn't displayed (singularly). I suppose there is some routing issue, but haven't been able to find it. What am I doing wrong?

CodePudding user response：

The Router try to match the routes in the same order they are defined. Since you've defined the wildcard route ** before the post page.

const routes: Routes = [
  ...
  {
    path: '**',
    component: HomeComponent,
  },
  {
    path: 'post/:id/:slug',
    loadChildren: () => import('./post/post.module').then(m => m.PostModule),
  },
];

When you try to access a post url, the router is matching it to the wildcard route and creating a new HomeComponent

To solve it you just need to move the wildcard route to the end of the array.
