PathLocationStrategy

A LocationStrategy used to configure the Location service to represent its state in the path of the browser's URL.

If you're using PathLocationStrategy, you may provide a APP_BASE_HREFor add a <base href> element to the document to override the default.

For instance, if you provide an APP_BASE_HREF of '/my/app/' and call location.go('/foo'), the browser's URL will become example.com/my/app/foo. To ensure all relative URIs resolve correctly, the <base href> and/or APP_BASE_HREF should end with a /.

Similarly, if you add <base href='/my/app/'/> to the document and call location.go('/foo'), the browser's URL will become example.com/my/app/foo.

Note that when using PathLocationStrategy, neither the query nor the fragment in the <base href> will be preserved, as outlined by the RFC.

Example

          
import {Location, LocationStrategy, PathLocationStrategy} from '@angular/common';import {Component} from '@angular/core';@Component({  selector: 'path-location',  providers: [Location, {provide: LocationStrategy, useClass: PathLocationStrategy}],  template: `    <h1>PathLocationStrategy</h1>    Current URL is: <code>{{ location.path() }}</code    ><br />    Normalize: <code>/foo/bar/</code> is: <code>{{ location.normalize('foo/bar') }}</code    ><br />  `,  standalone: false,})export class PathLocationComponent {  location: Location;  constructor(location: Location) {    this.location = location;  }}
