on pub.dev for v5.1.3 it states that uri and path parameters should be in GoRouter, but they aren't https://pub.dev/documentation/go_router/5.1.3/go_router/GoRouter-class.html
did this PR override the 5.1.2 one ?

@ahmednfwela oops I think I messed up the change log, I will fix it.

You can now use GoRouterState.of(context) to access the uri and path parameters

@chunhtai but what if I don't have the context (e.g. in controller-based architecture) ? how can I access the path parameters ?

use a Builder widget

[ahmednfwela]

what I mean is accessing the parameters outside the flutter widget tree, where I am relying entirely on the GoRouter instance to listen for notifications and access path parameters

[chunhtai]

@ahmednfwela That is a use case i have not thought about, can you open an issue so that we can discuss in there?

[ahmednfwela]

@chunhtai I have opened flutter/flutter#114642
