LocationStrategy

export class LocationStrategy

exported from angular2/router defined in angular2/src/router/location_strategy.ts (line 2)

LocationStrategy is responsible for representing and reading route state from the browser's URL. Angular provides two strategies: HashLocationStrategy (default) and PathLocationStrategy.

This is used under the hood of the Location service.

Applications should use the Router or Location services to interact with application route state.

For instance, HashLocationStrategy produces URLs like http://example.com#/foo, and PathLocationStrategy produces http://example.com/foo as an equivalent URL.
