Reloading the page gives wrong GET request with AngularJS HTML5 mode

I want to enable HTML5 mode for my app. I have put the following code for the configuration, as shown here:

return app.config([\'$routeProvider\',\'$location         


        

Answer 1

I had the same problem with java + angular app generated with JHipster. I solved it with Filter and list of all angular pages in properties:

application.yml:

angular-pages:
  - login
  - settings
...

AngularPageReloadFilter.java

public class AngularPageReloadFilter implements Filter {
    @Override
    public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response, FilterChain chain) throws IOException, ServletException {
        request.getRequestDispatcher("index.html").forward(request, response);
    }
}

WebConfigurer.java

private void initAngularNonRootRedirectFilter(ServletContext servletContext,
                                              EnumSet disps) {
    log.debug("Registering angular page reload Filter");
    FilterRegistration.Dynamic angularRedirectFilter =
            servletContext.addFilter("angularPageReloadFilter",
                    new AngularPageReloadFilter());
    int index = 0;
    while (env.getProperty("angular-pages[" + index + "]") != null) {
        angularRedirectFilter.addMappingForUrlPatterns(disps, true, "/" + env.getProperty("angular-pages[" + index + "]"));
        index++;
    }
    angularRedirectFilter.setAsyncSupported(true);
}

Hope, it will be helpful for somebody.
