How to use goto in a Svelte module? "goto is not a function"

Hi,

I’m coding a module with some functions to be used elsewhere and I’m having trouble to use goto, here some example:

functions.svelte

<script context="module">
    import { goto } from "@roxi/routify";

export function doSomething() {
    console.log("did it");
    goto("/newpage");
}
</script>

After that, I import the function in my App:

<script>
   import { doSomething } from "./functions.svelte";

  doSomething();
</script>

When running, I get the error “goto is not a function”

What is the proper way to do this?

Hum, I tried using window.location.href, but it loses data on stores (unless saved on browser, what I’m not inclined to do), guess I will need to move goto to the page.

Thanks anyway.

@ferulisses if you don’t need dynamic redirects, you can also use this:

• redirect redirects before component is loaded
• rewrite same as redirect, but preserves the URL

<!-- Redirect example. Same for rewrite.-->

<!-- routify:options redirect="/some/path" -->
<!-- routify:options redirect={"path": "/some/path", "params": {"id": "1"} -->

You can also create guards with beforeUrlChange.

For context="module" guards you will have to wait for Routify 3, which we hope to release a preview of very soon.
