What is the best way to use Pageless route without context?

[haradakunihiko]

To show a dialog, I think I need to directly use Navigator class to push Route class like bellow.

final dialogRoute = DialogRoute(
  context: context,
  builder: (context) => SizedBox(
    child: Center(
      child: CircularProgressIndicator(),
    ),
  ),
);

Navigator.of(context).push(dialogRoute);

And here I need a context to pass to Navigator.of. In my previous app, I get a context from Navigator key, but there is no way to set navigator key in routemaster. Is there any way to solve this situation?

IMHO, I think there are two options.

1. Accept Navigator key.
2. Add API to RouteMaster which accept Route to handle Pageless Route（ https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Q0jx0l4-xymph9O6zLaOY4d_f7YFpNWX_eGbzYxr9wY/edit#heading=h.ririyyxrggqr ）so I can use navigate-without-a-context way. （This could be simple but needs to add all API in navigator.dart）

Thanks in advance. I love this library because of it’s simple API and declarative mapping from URL.

I think https://github.com/tomgilder/routemaster/pull/203 will solve this issue. Looking forward to being merged 😄

@tomgilder What's the reason behind this page assertion? Shouldn't any Route<T> implementer do? How else would one add a Dialog or BottomSheet as an overlay to the stack or as a named route save for the native solution as done by the author of this issue?
