Set URL Support

This widget will set a URL when loaded, enabling users to bookmark or refresh the page with F5, without being reset to the homepage.

This widget works best in combination with the Deep Link Module to generate the actual URL's that will be set.

Configuration

The URL is always set as a relative path from the root location. So if you are on the App Store, you might use this configuration: URL: "link/apps/${appid}/${creatorcompany}" With the attributes set to the 'AppID' and the 'Appstore.App_Creator/Appstore.Creator/Name'.

From the root url "https://appstore.home.mendix.com/index3.html", the index3.html part is replaced with the configured path.

This would result in the url: "https://appstore.home.mendix.com/link/app/65083/Mendix"

Both widgets set the URL when they are loaded and set it back to the application normal url once the user navigates away.

The 'Set URL' widget sets a static URL.

The 'Set URL Context' widget let's you use ${} variables that will be replaced by the associated attributes.

Technical information

This widget uses the History API to set the URL.

Using the history.replaceState() call, we can overwrite the normal 'index.html' URL that's usually in the URL-bar of your application and insert a different one that matches the content that is being shown. This doesn't affect the normal browser's Back and Forward buttons.
