How to clear navigation history in Angular router

Issue

I have a use case, in which I need to clear the navigation history using angular-router (so that hardware back button press does not take me to the previous page but homepage).

I have been looking around for a straightforward solution for this but haven't found any.

I have suggestions of using nativescript but I don't want to increase my bundle-size for this requirement.

Please advise if there is any in-built angular functionality I can use?

Solution

The only way I was able to make it work was by using NavContoller

   this.nav.navigateRoot('/tabs/home');

This removed all the pages from the stack and navigated to the homepage
