> A tiny (412B) runtime to retrieve the correct entry from a Route Manifest file.

This is the runtime/client-side component for [`webpack-route-manifest`](https://github.com/lukeed/webpack-route-manifest).

It is **required** that your manifest's routes be [sorted by specificity](https://github.com/lukeed/route-sort#specificity), which _is_ the webpack plugin's default setting.

> **Important:** This `route-manifest` _does not_ fetch files or apply headers on your behalf!

The module is available in three formats:

* **ES Module**: `dist/rmanifest.mjs`
* **CommonJS**: `dist/rmanifest.js`
* **UMD**: `dist/rmanifest.min.js`

## Install

```
$ npm install --save route-manifest
```

## Usage

```js
import { prefetch } from 'quicklink';
import rmanifest from 'route-manifest';

// Manually fetch Manifest file contents
fetch('/manifest.json').then(r => r.json()).then(data => {
/*
Assume Manifest (`data`) is:
{
[pattern]: {
files: { href: string, type: string }
headers: [...skip...]
}
}
*/

const files = new Set();

// We want to prefetch these pages' assets
['/blog', '/about', '/features'].forEach(str => {
let entry = rmanifest(data, str);
entry.files.forEach(x => files.add(x.href));
});

// Note:
// The `quicklink` module will do the actual prefetching!
// We just have have to give it a file path, or an array
// of file paths in this case~!
return prefetch([...files]);
});
```

## API

### rmanifest(contents, uri, withCommons)
Returns: `{ files: Array, headers: Array }`

Returns an object containing `files` and `headers` keys, both of which will be arrays. The arrays' items are copied from your Manifest file directly, so you will (presumably) already know the shape of your data.

#### contents
Type: `Object`

The Manifest file's contents.

Any format returned by [`webpack-route-manifest`](https://github.com/lukeed/webpack-route-manifest) is valid.

> **Important:** The route pattern keys [must be sorted](https://github.com/lukeed/webpack-route-manifest#optionssort) for matching correctness.

#### uri
Type: `String`

The URL for which you want to find files or headers.

> **Note:** _Only_ include the `pathname` segment of a URL, unless a pattern is explicitly looking for other segments.

#### withCommons
Type: `Boolean`

Default: `false`

Whether or not the base/root-wildcard entry should be included.

When `true` and when a `"*"` pattern is defined, this will include the wildcard's entry _in addition to_ the route's own specific entry too, if any. The result is still a single object of `{ files, headers }` shape – the difference is just that the two entries have their keys' items concatenated into a single array.

When `false`, this module will _only_ return the entry _specific to_ the requested `uri` pathname.
