Vue2 navigate to external url with location.href

Question

I tried to go to \'www.mytargeturl.org\' using router.go, router.push, router.replace and window.location.href to redirect my vuejs app but i always get myVueapp.com/www.mytarge

Answer 1

No need to use navigation guards in this case, cleaner to use dynamic redirect right there in route config

routes:[
  {
    path: '/redirect-example',
    redirect: (to: Route) => {
      window.location.href = 'http://example.com'
      return '/redirecting' // not important since redirecting
    }
  }
]
