Expose routeTo

[psabharwal123]

routeTo function would be helpful if one needs to "forward" instead of "redirect", basically not change the url in the address bar. example use case - default component forwards to /error/404

[developit]

It's exposed already:

import { route } from 'preact-router';

route('/page-2')  // appends a history entry

route('/page-3', true)  // replaces the current history entry

Let me know if the docs didn't make this obvious :)

I am asking for 'routeto' not 'route'. Purpose being that i dont want the url in addressbar to change :)

@psabharwal123 if the pull request for #265 be applied you will able to extend the preact Router class and do what you want to do :)

[psabharwal123]

thanks! hopefully someone can review and merge it soon :)

[psabharwal123]

@studentIvan please have a look at your changes, one of them breaks minification so cant be merged

[Davetherave2010]

I made a PR for this (#270) to get it added to the docs

[psabharwal123]

Thanks but original request was to expose 'routeTo'

[developit]

@psabharwal123 if you want to route without changing the URL, use createMemoryHistory from history.
