Best pattern to fetch data based on a path

See original GitHub issue

Expected behavior

var html = require('choo/html')
var choo = require('choo')

var app = choo()
app.use(productStore)
app.route('/product/:id', mainView)
app.mount('body')

function mainView (state, emit) {

  return html`  <body onload=${pullData}>
      <h1>product is ${state.product.name}</h1>
    </body>
  `
  function pullData(){
    emitter.emit('fetchProduct');
  }
}

function productStore (state, emitter) {
  emitter.on('fetchProduct', function () {
    fetch('/product/'+state.params.id,function (product) {
       state.product = product;
       emitter.emit('render')
    })
  })
}

I was wondering if this is a good pattern in order to fetch some data when access some URL.

This is a very common issue ! Do you really use Choo in your real project ? @yoshuawuyts ~~Forgive my rudeness, but the routing system in Choo really sucks !~~ I’m very rude, and the routing system in Choo really sucks !

@chuck911 - You’re being very hurtful by saying an open source library that has taken 100s of hours of people’s free time sucks. What’s more is you haven’t suggested anything constructive that solves the issue at hand.

Please take a moment before posting comments that purposefully upset people who are passionate contributors to open source.
