AngularJS + Django: URL refresh or direct access not loading correctly

问题:

We have AngularJS embedded into our Django application, with URL routing handled by AngularJS ui-router. All is working fine navigating between partials using ui-sref and clicking around within the application.

return $stateProvider.state('root.dashboard', {         abstract: true,         url: 'dashboard/'       }).state('root.dashboard.profile', {         url: 'profile/',         views: {           '@': {             templateUrl: Urls['dashboard:profile'](),             controller: 'ProfileController'           }         }       }).state('root.dashboard.home', {         url: '',         views: {           '@': {             templateUrl: Urls['dashboard:dashboard_home'](),             controller: 'DashboardController'           }         } ... 

The problem is when the user has navigated to a non-root page (say for example http://example.com/dashboard/profile/), and the user refreshes the browser, re-loads the browser's URL or simply pastes in the non-root URL directly into the browser. Instead of loading the page retaining the same URL in the browser, the user is getting redirected to the root page (http://example.com/dashboard/) in this case.

Since routing is handled by Angular, on the server side we don't have any url routes defined for those non-root URLs; instead we have middleware that redirects 404s to the root page:

class Redirect404(object):     def process_response(self, request, response):         if response.status_code != 404 or request.method != 'GET':             return response         return HttpResponsePermanentRedirect('/dashboard') 

We expect that the router would be able to maintain the original URL and bring the user back to the original page (i.e. 'dashboard/profile'). Note we have set HTML5Mode in Angular as follows:

$locationProvider.html5Mode = true; 

There is some mistake in our understanding and/or setup, and would appreciate clarification.

That is the misunderstanding.

Here is the sequence of events:

1. The user types http://example.com/dashboard/profile/ into the location bar.
2. The browser sends a GET request to the server for that URL.
3. Your server responds with a 301 redirect response.
4. The browser sees that response and sends a new GET request to http://example.com/dashboard/.
5. The server responds with your Angular page.
6. The Angular application starts up and looks at window.href to see what the current route is. It sees the root route and responds appropriately.

In other words, when you redirect you lose the original URL.

The solution is simple: instead of redirecting, simply return your page in response to any (valid) URL. That way the requested URL is maintained, and when Angular starts up it will be able to figure out the right route. (This assumes that routing is set up properly in Angular, but it sounds like you have that working.)

The implementation is also simple. Just change your Django urls.py from something like this:

urlpatterns = [     url(r'^dashboard/$', my_view), ] 

to something like this:

urlpatterns = [     url(r'^dashboard/.*$', my_view), ]
