hasher

A tiny hashchange router inspired by express.js & page.js

hasher is a tiny hashchange router.
Most web applications now use "pushState" for its routing function.
"hashchange" is legacy solution, but it is still useful for the application without server (for example: local node-webkit applications).

Usage

import hasher from 'hasher';

hasher('/', index);

hasher('/user/:id', load, show);
hasher('/user/:id/edit', load, edit);
hasher('/user/:id/delete', del);

hasher('*', notfound);

// Begin monitoring hashchange events
hasher();

}
