router.execute

executerouter.execute(callback, args, name)
This method is called internally within the router, whenever a route matches and its corresponding callback is about to be executed. Return false from execute to cancel the current transition. Override it to perform custom parsing or wrapping of your routes, for example, to parse query strings before handing them to your route callback, like so:

var Router = Backbone.Router.extend({
  execute: function(callback, args, name) {
    if (!loggedIn) {
      goToLogin();
      return false;
    }
    args.push(parseQueryString(args.pop()));
    if (callback) callback.apply(this, args);
  }
});
