how to write global router-function in nuxt.js

Question

I am using Vue.js with Nuxt.js, but I got a problem in router's functions.

In the pure Vue, i can write in main.js like this:

val route = new Router({
   routes:{
      [...]
   }
})

route.beforeEach(to,from,next){
    //do something to validate
}

And how to do the same in nuxt.js ? I can not find any file like main.js.

Also, all i know is to deal with the pages folder to achieve router, I can not set the redirect path

please help, thx :)

You can create a plugin for Nuxt

create a plugins/route.js file:

export default ({ app }) => {
   // Every time the route changes (fired on initialization too)
   app.router.afterEach((to, from) => {
     //do something to validate
   }
}

and update your nuxt.config.js file:

plugins: ['~/plugins/route']
