I know firefox has the very useful “Copy clean Link” option in the context menu, but I would like a similar feature for copying links from any other software, like spotify for example. So I am looking for some software that hooks into the clipboard pipeline, and cleans any URL that gets added. I tried googling for something like it, but was completely unsuccessful. Does anyone have a clue how I might go about achieving this?
Thanks in advance :)
Edit: I found out about klipper’s actions, which provide the option to run a command when a string that matches a regex is added to the clipboard buffer. I am not sure how to properly use this though, so any help is appreciated!
But what if you have multiple optional parameters?
have multiple routes point to the same endpoint, dynamically adding the parameters serverside
That sounds harder than just using query parameters. What are the benefits?
Having more beautiful and structured URLs. I suppose for those cases it’s more of a preference, and with the tooling I use (.NET) it’s not too difficult to achieve.
I guess my gripe with your original statement was that I was thinking mostly of state like user login etc. I have to concede it’s not totally garbage for the cases you mentioned.
