# `navigateTo`
|
|
|
|
`navigateTo` is a router helper function that allows programmatically navigating users through your Nuxt application.
|
|
|
|
`navigateTo` is available on both server side and client side. It can be used within plugins, middleware or can be called directly to perform page navigation.
|
|
|
|
## Type
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
navigateTo(to: RouteLocationRaw | undefined | null, options?: NavigateToOptions) => Promise<void | NavigationFailure> | RouteLocationRaw
|
|
|
|
interface NavigateToOptions {
|
|
replace?: boolean
|
|
redirectCode?: number
|
|
external?: boolean
|
|
open?: OpenOptions
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
::alert{type="warning"}
|
|
Make sure to always use `await` or `return` on result of `navigateTo` when calling it.
|

|
|
## Parameters
|
|
|
|
### `to`
|
|
|
|
**Type**: [`RouteLocationRaw`](https://router.vuejs.org/api/interfaces/RouteLocation.html) | `undefined` | `null`
|
|
|
|
**Default**: `'/'`
|
|
|
|
`to` can be a plain string or a route object to redirect to. When passed as `undefined` or `null`, it will default to `'/'`.
|
|
|
|
### `options` (optional)
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `NavigateToOptions`
|
|
|
|
An object accepting the following properties:
|
|
|
|
- `replace` (optional)
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `boolean`
|
|
|
|
**Default**: `false`
|
|
|
|
By default, `navigateTo` pushes the given route into the Vue Router's instance on the client side.
|
|
|
|
This behavior can be changed by setting `replace` to `true`, to indicate that given route should be replaced.
|
|
|
|
- `redirectCode` (optional)
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `number`
|
|
|
|
**Default**: `302`
|
|
|
|
`navigateTo` redirects to the given path and sets the redirect code to [`302 Found`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/302) by default when the redirection takes place on the server side.
|
|
|
|
This default behavior can be modified by providing different `redirectCode`. Commonly, [`301 Moved Permanently`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/301) can be used for permanent redirections.
|
|
|
|
- `external` (optional)
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `boolean`
|
|
|
|
**Default**: `false`
|
|
|
|
Allows navigating to an external URL when set to `true`. Otherwise, `navigateTo` will throw an error, as external navigation is not allowed by default.
|
|
|
|
- `open` (optional)
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `OpenOptions`
|
|
|
|
Allows navigating to the URL using the [open()](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/open) method of the window. This option is only applicable on the client side and will be ignored on the server side.
|
|
|
|
An object accepting the following properties:
|
|
|
|
- `target`
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `string`
|
|
|
|
**Default**: `'_blank'`
|
|
|
|
A string, without whitespace, specifying the name of the browsing context the resource is being loaded into.
|
|
|
|
- `windowFeatures` (optional)
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `OpenWindowFeatures`
|
|
|
|
An object accepting the following properties:
|
|
|
|
- `popup` (optional)
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `boolean`
|
|
|
|
- `width` or `innerWidth` (optional)
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `number`
|
|
|
|
- `height` or `innerHeight` (optional)
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `number`
|
|
|
|
- `left` or `screenX` (optional)
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `number`
|
|
|
|
- `top` or `screenY` (optional)
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `number`
|
|
|
|
- `noopener` (optional)
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `boolean`
|
|
|
|
- `noreferrer` (optional)
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `boolean`
|
|
|
|
Refer to the [documentation](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/open) for more detailed information on the **windowFeatures** properties.

|
await navigateTo({ path: '/search' })
|
|
|
