<commit_before># Route Configuration

Route configuration is a set of rules the Router uses when trying to match the URL to a set of components.


To demonstrate, lets write a couple of components for a simple bog web app:

```ts
import { Component } from 'angular2/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'app',
  template: `
    <h1>My Blog</h1>
    <nav>
      <a linkTo="/">Home</a>
      <a linkTo="/blog">Blog</a>
    </nav>

    <route-view></route-view>
  `
})
class App { }

@Component({
  selector: 'home-page',
  template: `
    <h2>Home Page</h2>
  `
})
class HomePage { }

@Component({
  selector: 'blog-page',
  template: `
    <h2>Blog</h2>
    <nav>
      <a *ngFor="var post of posts" [linkTo]="'/blog/' + post.id">{{ post.title }}</a>
    </nav>

    <route-view></route-view>
  `
})
class BlogPage { }

@Component({
  selector: 'post-page',
  template: `
    <h3>Post</h3>
  `
})
class PostPage { }
```

Now we need to write route configuration with the following rules:

* When `/`, show the `HomePage` component
* When `/blog`, show the `BlogPage` component
* when `/blog/:id`, show the `BlogPage` and `PostPage` components

```ts
import { Routes } from '@ngrx/router';

const routes: Routes = [
  {
    path: '/',
    component: HomePage
  },
  {
    path: '/blog',
    component: BlogPage,

class BlogPage { }
