Urls are not generating with #

[dotnetwise]

Our spa is not http://website/ but rather http://website/some/folder

The breadcrumb urls are not being generated with a hash # before:
e.g.
/home instead of #/home

Obviously this would fail the navigation.

Is there a setting to tweak?

You speak about the HTML5 mode right ?

The generation of href in links is totally delegated to the UI-router, and it supports HTML5 mode.

Do you add this line in your app configuration: $locationProvider.html5Mode(true) ?

The HTML5 mode requires specific settings on the server side: https://github.com/angular-ui/ui-router/wiki/Frequently-Asked-Questions#how-to-configure-your-server-to-work-with-html5mode

It's interesting that your example doesn't set $locationProvider.html5Mode(true) but works like a charm.

We don't have $locationProvider.html5Mode(true), and just in your breadcrumb links is missing the #

ui-sref directive seems to be generating the urls correctly with # hash

Oh right, maybe you are in this case: angular-ui/ui-router#1397

Do you use Angular 1.3 ?
In this case, you have to update the UI-router to the 0.2.12-pre1.

[dotnetwise]

Yes! That indeed seems to be the issue.
0.2.11 installed from npm is not actually the correct version that you get after you do a grunt in theangular-ui-router itself.

So that's a bug, their release/angular-ui-router.js is not the same as build/angular-ui-router.js

Filled a bug there too
angular-ui/ui-router#1498

Btw, the 0.2.12-pre is not even published to npm as of today

[ncuillery]

Yes, as their names suggest, the release directory contains only the last release (made with the grunt release task) and the build directory contains an up-to-date but unstable build (made with default task).

It is exactly the same here (except my build directory is called dist).

Btw, the 0.2.12-pre is not even published to npm as of today

You can fill an other issue there ;)
