   * router.redirect - redirects the request URL. For example, the most common case is to redirect the request accessing the root directory to the homepage.
 - router-name defines a alias for the route, and URL can be generated by helper method `pathFor` and `urlFor` provided by Helper. (Optional)
 - path-match - URL path of the route.
