I have tried some answers on SO, but they are old and no longer work, or are blocked by the browser.
I have a login, and a separate login failed page (separate for a good reason, please don't say make them the same page).
If the user is shown the failed login page, and they hit refresh, I would like to go to the login page, not refresh the failed login page.
Existing answers go something like this:
<script type="module">
function redirect()
{
window.location.href="/login/";
return true;
}
window.addEventListener('beforeunload', redirect);
</script>

Not ideal, but instead of catching the reload before navigating away, catch the reload at the start of the page:
Reload detection code from: https://stackoverflow.com/a/53307588/5506400
<script type="module">
const pageAccessedByReload = (
(window.performance.navigation && window.performance.navigation.type === 1) ||
window.performance
.getEntriesByType('navigation')
.map((nav) => nav.type)
.includes('reload')
);
if (pageAccessedByReload) {
window.location.href="/login/";
}
</script>
CodePudding user response:
let me know this will help or not, use type value to check for reload
// Use getEntriesByType() to just get the "navigation" events
var entries = performance.getEntriesByType('navigation');
for (var i = 0; i < entries.length; i ) {
console.log('= Navigation entry[' i ']');
var p = entries[i];
// dom Properties
console.log(
'DOM content loaded = '
(p.domContentLoadedEventEnd - p.domContentLoadedEventStart)
);
console.log('DOM complete = ' p.domComplete);
// other properties
console.log('type = ' p.type);
}
