Do not delete name of route with children

[bartlomieju]

Hi!

Today I stumbled across a problem that deletes name of routes that have children. I think this is unexpected behaviour, as I tend to have directory structure like this:

and do a redirect in vendors/_slug.vue file.

The culprit is this line:
https://github.com/nuxt-community/nuxt-i18n/blob/45ff90d1b8076c12f5c1a75fb7e2d398450e7c51/src/helpers/routes.js#L70

What is your opinion on this one?

Hi @bartlomieju
This change was made to fix a particular issue: #98
I don't remember the details exactly...
Does this prevent you from doing the redirection?

[bartlomieju]

Hi @paulgv sorry for trouble, it looks like my Nuxt route config is improper, I should have added index.vue file to vendors directory.

[paulgv]

@bartlomieju no worries! I was wondering why you didn't have that index.vue actually. All good then!

Hi @paulgv and @bartlomieju I have the same error, I open a question: #286

I have the index.vue but it doesn't work for me, it also deletes.

Please, any help to resolve this?

@paulgv @bartlomieju I think this is breaking a valid use case because the assumption that routes with children should not have a name is incorrect. Navigating to a route which has children is valid and so those routes should be allowed a name.

I have a structure like this which works fine when I remove the deletion.

It is a page with tabs which has children. I need to redirect to the default tab by name for various reasons. This is supported by vue-router and works with nuxt when I disable the vue-i18n plugin.

I don't immediately see (not sure if I ever knew), why names are removed. Maybe you want to create new issue about that?

But I'm not sure that structure that you've shown is entirely correct. For example, I can't see how to trigger documents.vue at all or even the deeper-level _document.vue.

@rchl I will create a new issue for it.

The structure works as-is and creates the correct routes. The _folder.vue has tabs with a <nuxt-child> view which shows documents.vue which contains a <nuxt-child> view in a table row detail section which shows _document.vue. It took a while to figure out but now I have nice urls for each state.

@madmod there is actually already issue about that #356
