Rewriting URL
Is there anything similar to NextJS's rewrite URL function in Nuxt?
Would be great for multitenancy. More specifically, a function that just points Nuxt/the user to a different page (similar to redirect), but without actually changing the url.
Forexample: tenant.test.com/cool-site, gets routed to test.com/tenant/cool-site

Hi @Zerio. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

I'm sorry, but the knowledge sources do not explicitly mention a feature in Nuxt that is directly equivalent to Next.js's "rewrite" functionality, where you can internally map one URL to another without changing the browser's address bar.
Nuxt does support redirects (which do change the URL in the browser) and offers advanced routing customization through the router options and hooks, as well as the ability to define custom routes and navigation logic in your app. However, these approaches either change the URL or require explicit handling in your routing logic, and there is no clear documentation or example of a transparent "rewrite" (internal routing without URL change) as in Next.js.
For multitenancy, you might be able to achieve similar behavior by customizing the router or using middleware to handle requests and render different content based on the incoming URL or subdomain, but this would not be a true rewrite in the Next.js sense. If you need to access the incoming request URL for custom logic, you can use the useRequestURL composable, but this does not provide rewrite capabilities—it only gives you access to the current URL object for inspection and logic in your components or middleware useRequestURL composable.
If you need redirects (which do change the URL), you can use route rules or server middleware, but again, this is not a rewrite as you described.
In summary:
Nuxt does not appear to have a built-in, documented feature exactly like Next.js's "rewrite" that allows you to serve content from a different route without changing the browser's URL. You may need to implement custom logic or use middleware, but this would not be a direct equivalent and may require more manual handling. If you have a specific use case, such as multitenancy, you might need to handle the routing logic yourself based on the request context, but the knowledge sources do not provide a ready-made solution for this scenario. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
