Angular2 router (@angular/router), how to set default route?

Question

How can I set a default route in my @Routes route metadata collection? If you use the angular2 router from @angular/router-deprecated you define the routes in @routeConfig

Answer 1

Suppose you want to load RegistrationComponent on load and then ConfirmationComponent on some event click on RegistrationComponent.

So in appModule.ts, you can write like this.

RouterModule.forRoot([
      { 
        path: '', 
        redirectTo: 'registration', 
        pathMatch: 'full'
       },
       { 
        path: 'registration', 
        component: RegistrationComponent
       },
      {
        path : 'confirmation',
        component: ConfirmationComponent
      }
    ]) 

OR

RouterModule.forRoot([
       { 
        path: '', 
        component: RegistrationComponent
       },
      {
        path : 'confirmation',
        component: ConfirmationComponent
      }
    ]) 

is also fine. Choose whatever you like.
