Match any part of the URL

[sztranyovszky]

How could I match any part of the URL?

E.g. if (url.href.includes("abc")) return "ABC"; doesn't catch https://somehost.com/xyabcdef.

Hmm, I just tried this code:

if (url.href.includes("ContainerScript")) return "ContainerScript Repo";

And opened: #8 and it worked.

Edit:

I just tried the following:

if (url.href.includes("/issues")) return "Github Issues";

If you start on https://github.com/icholy/ContainerScript and click on the "Issues" tab it doesn't switch containers. I think this happens because Github is using turbolinks and doesn't actually re-load the page 🤔

Edit:

Looks like I'd need to add a pushstate/popstate listener: https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/how-to-detect-url-change-via-popstate-on-my-extension/88769
