pick up the URL variables at the start of the app

[thondeboer]

I have an app that I want to be able to use URL variables, and I can figure out how to setup a handler when the values CHANGE, but how do I get the INITIAL settings of the URL values? There is no equivalent state.get_route_vars() it seems so how do I get those values at startup?

Hi,

Did you try to use the session object with the http header referer ? You have access to the url at the origin of the call. You should be able to parse it with urlparse lib.

def handle_app_enter(state, session):
    print(session['headers'].get('referer'))

An event is missing to capture a user's entry into the application at the root level. You must necessarily use the one on the page wf-page-open.

We can imagine a wf-app-open event.

Thanks. I got quite confused with the rebranding.

any news on this issue ?

We haven't planned the work on that yet.

We've revisited this and we've decided to move forward with a new event in Root that'll be able to get URL information.
