beforeLoad

Use a route's beforeLoad function to check authentication before the route and its children load. Throw redirect() to send unauthenticated users to login, while private server data still needs its own authorization.

Syntax

beforeLoad: ({ context, location }) => { if (!context.auth.isAuthenticated) throw redirect({ to: '/login' }) }
