# Navigation History
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
The [NavigationHistory](latest/tutorial/navigation-history.md) class allows you to manage and interact with the browsing history of your Electron application. This powerful feature enables you to create intuitive navigation experiences for your users.
|
|
|
|
## Accessing NavigationHistory
|
|
|
|
Navigation history is stored per [`WebContents`](latest/api/web-contents.md) instance. To access a specific instance of the NavigationHistory class, use the WebContents class's [`contents.navigationHistory` instance property](https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/web-contents#contentsnavigationhistory-readonly).
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const { BrowserWindow } = require('electron')
|
|
|
|
const mainWindow = new BrowserWindow()
|
|
const { navigationHistory } = mainWindow.webContents
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Navigating through history
|
|
|
|
Easily implement back and forward navigation:
|
|
|
|
```js @ts-type={navigationHistory:Electron.NavigationHistory}
|
|
// Go back
|
|
if (navigationHistory.canGoBack()) {
|
|
navigationHistory.goBack()
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// Go forward
|
|
if (navigationHistory.canGoForward()) {
|
|
navigationHistory.goForward()
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Accessing history entries
|
|
|
|
Retrieve and display the user's browsing history:
|
|
|
|
```js @ts-type={navigationHistory:Electron.NavigationHistory}
|
|
const entries = navigationHistory.getAllEntries()
|
|
|
|
entries.forEach((entry) => {
|
|
console.log(`${entry.title}: ${entry.url}`)
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Each navigation entry corresponds to a specific page. The indexing system follows a sequential order:
|
|
|
|
- Index 0: Represents the earliest visited page.
|
|
- Index N: Represents the most recent page visited.
|
|
|
|
## Navigating to specific entries
|
|
|
|
Allow users to jump to any point in their browsing history:
|
|
|
|
```js @ts-type={navigationHistory:Electron.NavigationHistory}
|
|
// Navigate to the 5th entry in the history, if the index is valid
|
|
navigationHistory.goToIndex(4)
|
|
|
|
// Navigate to the 2nd entry forward from the current position
|
|
if (navigationHistory.canGoToOffset(2)) {
|
|
navigationHistory.goToOffset(2)
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
