Best Practice way to support URL aliases?

[rwillmer]

I need to support multiple URLs for the same state (reason: support for legacy code)

Is there an agreed best practice way to do this? I've seen this issue #185, but it doesn't seem to reach a conclusion about the right way to do it.

Currently the only accepted convention for this is $urlRouterProvider.when(). There are no higher level APIs for multiple URLs at the moment.

Oh, alternatively, you could implement a custom UrlMatcher that accepts multiple UrlMatchers as arguments.

has anyone written such custom UrlMatcher yet?

this is major pain in the ass, when you are working on a site with multiple languages, and it would take me a good while to try and understand the 1000 loc https://github.com/angular-ui/ui-router/blob/master/src/urlMatcherFactory.js and write a custom version of it..
