`navigation_and_routing` to handle initial path before login

[asashour]

Would the below scenario add a value to the sample:

1. The user opens the web browser with /book/3
2. The web app redirects to /signin
3. Sign in

Expected

• The app redirects to /book/3

Actual

• The app redirects to /books/popular

@johnpryan, since this was your sample originally, I'd love to have your opinion on this.

[johnpryan]

Makes sense, the way I would do this is to add a redirect query parameter when the app navigates to /signin. So instead of /signin it would be /signin?redirect=/books/3.

It looks like there may be two people interested in implementing this.

@asashour, you were the first to suggest the change, so if you're interested in implementing it, I'll leave it to you.

[asashour]

Thanks all for your feedback.

@ramanjitsingh-hub please go ahead, I hope one week is enough to raise a PR.

If you want more ideas, we can have an error message when the username/password is empty, or tests to be added for the login or the navigation. As mentioned in CONTRIBUTING, it is better to discuss the changes before spending time implementing them.

Hi @redbrogdon Is this issue still there in the app? I am not able to reproduce the scenario mentioned by @asashour .

[asashour]

The issue is still reprodubile.

The initial URL should be something like http://localhost:56422/#/book/3.

so is there any way to pass a redirect parameter ?
