Ability to load dynamically-built URL for onclick action #84

Closed Frencil closed 7 years ago

Frencil commented 7 years ago

Presently the behaviors system allows for determining the status a data element takes on click / shift-click / ctrl-click etc. However in some use cases where LocusZoom is an element of a larger platform (e.g. PheWeb) a more desirable behavior would be to tie data element click events to loading a new URL, ideally defined using the same templating markup used in tool tips to allow for dynamic URLs that draw from arbitrary fields on the element.

This has been addressed on master and will appear in the upcoming 0.5.4 release. Documentation on the new layout syntax that supports this change is here.
