Pass parameter into route guard

Question

I\'m working on an app that has a lot of roles that I need to use guards to block nav to parts of the app based on those roles. I realize I can create individual guard class

Answer 1

Instead of using forRole(), you can do this:

{ 
   path: 'super-user-stuff', 
   component: SuperUserStuffComponent,
   canActivate: RoleGuard,
   data: {roles: ['SuperAdmin', ...]}
}

and use this in your RoleGuard

canActivate(route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot, state: RouterStateSnapshot)
    : Observable | Promise | boolean  {

    let roles = route.data.roles as Array;
    ...
}
