I am confronted with the following issue: the personal section which is protected via an AuthGuard Service is loaded twice when I navigate to it or by browser refresh. Second time it strips away the query parameters of the URL if I provide any. Here is my app router configuration:
const routes: Routes = [
{
path: 'search',
redirectTo: '',
pathMatch: 'full'
},
{
path: '',
component: BookmarksComponent
},
{
path: 'tagged/:tag',
component: TagComponent
},
{
path: 'about',
component: AboutComponent
},
{
path: 'personal',
loadChildren: 'app/personal/personal-bookmarks.module#PersonalBookmarksModule'
}
];
@NgModule({
imports: [RouterModule.forRoot(routes)],
exports: [RouterModule]
})
export class AppRoutingModule {}
and the child router configuration
@NgModule({
imports: [RouterModule.forChild([
{
path: '',
component: PersonalBookmarksComponent,
canActivate: [AuthGuard],
children: [
{
path: '',
component: PersonalBookmarksListComponent
},
{
path: 'new',
component: NewPersonalBookmarkFormComponent
},
{
path: 'bookmarks/:id',
component: PersonalBookmarkDetailComponent
}
]
}
])],
exports: [RouterModule]
})
export class PersonalBookmarksRoutingModule {}
The AuthGuard Service (whereby if it only returns true is the same behaviour):
@Injectable()
export class AuthGuard implements CanActivate {
constructor(private keycloakService: KeycloakService) {}
canActivate() {
console.log('AuthGuard#canActivate called');
if (this.keycloakService.isLoggedIn()) {
return true;
} else {
this.keycloakService.login();
}
}
}
And the Navbar template:
<nav class="navbar navbar-light bg-faded" id="navbar">
<a class="navbar-brand" [routerLink]="['']" routerLinkActive="active">
<img src="assets/logo.png" width="35" height="35" class="d-inline-block align-top" alt="">
Public Bookmarks
</a>
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" [routerLink]="['personal']" routerLinkActive="active">Personal list</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" [routerLink]="['about']" routerLinkActive="active">About</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="http://www.codingpedia.org/tags/#codingmarks" target="_blank">Blog</a>
</li>
<li *ngIf="isLoggedIn else notLoggedIn" class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" (click)="logout()">Logout <i class="fa fa-lock"></i></a>
</li>
<ng-template #notLoggedIn>
<li *ngIf="!keycloakService.isLoggedIn()" class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" (click)="login()">Login <i class="fa fa-unlock"></i></a>
</li>
</ng-template>
</ul>
</nav>
The project is available on Github and the faulty behaviour can be tested at https://www.codingmarks.org/personal by logging in with username/pwd - test@codingmarks.org/Test_user1$
UPDATE Even if I remove PersonalBookmarksComponent and move AuthGuard to the PersonalBookmarks module the wrong behaviour still persist... The routes for PersonalBookmarksModule look something like the following:
const personalBookmarksRoutes: Routes = [
{
path: 'search',
redirectTo: '',
pathMatch: 'full'
},
{
path: '',
component: PersonalBookmarksListComponent,
canActivate: [AuthGuard],
},
{
path: 'new',
component: NewPersonalBookmarkFormComponent
},
{
path: 'bookmarks/:id',
component: PersonalBookmarkDetailComponent
}
];
UPDATE2: The stripping away of the query parameters was due to the redirection forced when logging in with Keycloak.
False:
public login(): Promise<any> {
let options: any;
options = {redirectUri: environment.HOST + 'personal'};
return new Promise<any>((resolve, reject) => {
KeycloakService.auth.login(options)
.success(resolve)
.error(reject);
});
}
Correct:
public login(): Promise<any> {
return new Promise<any>((resolve, reject) => {
KeycloakService.auth.login()
.success(resolve)
.error(reject);
});
}
