React-router: v4 - computeMatch method question

[jeka1985]

Hi all,

A bit confused with idea of computeMatch method in Router.
On every history change this method is called but write same (but isExact property) data.

computeMatch(pathname) {
    return {
      path: '/',
      url: '/',
      params: {},
      isExact: pathname === '/'
    }
}

Whats the idea of using this? Should it write in store hash from current location?

Each location aware component may want to know what it's parent match is. We set a default match object in <Router> so that location aware components that are not rendered inside of a <Route> have default values to reference.
