[det]http_location_by_id(+ID,
-Location)- Explicit id
- If a term
id(ID)appears in the option list of the handler, ID it is used and takes preference over using the predicate. - Using the handler predicate
- ID matches a handler if the predicate name matches ID.
The
ID may have a module qualification, e.g.,
Module:Pred
If the handler is declared with a pattern, e.g., root(user/User),
the location to access a particular user may be accessed using
e.g., user('Bob'). The number of arguments to the compound
term must match the number of variables in the path pattern.
A plain atom ID can be used to find a handler with a
pattern. The returned location is the path up to the first variable,
e.g.,
/user/ in the example above.
User code is adviced to use http_link_to_id/3 which can also add query parameters to the URL. This predicate is a helper for http_link_to_id/3.
