vue-create-protected-routes

Protect Vue 3 routes by adding a requiresAuth meta flag to sensitive views and using a Vue Router 4 beforeEach navigation guard to check authentication. Unauthenticated users are automatically redirected to the login page with a redirect parameter.

Vue Router navigation guards integrate with Pinia by initializing the auth store inside the beforeEach hook. The router calls a checkAuthIfNeeded function to verify user state before allowing access to protected admin dashboards and nested views.

Yes, Vue Router meta fields manage access by setting requiresAuth for protected admin views and public flags for open pages. The router reads these meta values during navigation to enforce authentication dynamically across lazily-loaded routes.

Prevent login redirect loops in Vue by implementing smart redirects within the router guard. If an authenticated user visits the login page, the guard automatically redirects them to the dashboard, while unauthenticated users are sent to login without looping.

Lazy load protected views in Vue 3 by using dynamic imports for your admin dashboard route components. This optimizes performance by loading the code for protected areas only when an authenticated user navigates to them.
