URL exchange
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer-readable storage media for uniform resource locator (URL) customization. A request for URL customization may be received by one or more processors. The one or more processors may translate a URL associated with the request into a destination objection. One or more customized links may be generated based on the destination object. The destination object may include one or more of a brand, scheme, host, path, or query. Prior to translating the URL associated with the request into the destination object, the one or more processors may determine whether the URL associated with the request contains a known host by comparing a host of the URL to a list of known hosts.
1. A method for uniform resource locator (URL) customization, the method comprising:
receiving, by one or more processors, a request for URL customization;
determining, by the one or more processors, whether a URL associated with the request contains a known host by comparing a host of the URL to a list of known hosts;
translating, by the one or more processors, the URL associated with the request into a destination object; and
generating, by the one or more processors, based on the destination object, one or more customized links.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the destination object includes one or more of a brand, scheme, host, path, or query.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, when the URL associated with the request is determined not to have a known host, determining whether the URL associated with the request contains a known domain by comparing a domain of the URL to a list of known domains.
4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising, when the URL associated with the request is determined to have an unknown domain, determining whether the URL associated with the request includes a query parameter having an alternative URL.
5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising replacing the URL associated with the request with the alternative URL.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, when the URL associated with the request is determined to have a known host, fetching an updated URL and replacing the URL associated with the request with the updated URL.
7. A system comprising:
one or more processors; and
memory storing instructions, the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
receiving a request for URL customization;
determining whether a URL associated with the request contains a known host by comparing a host of the URL to a list of known hosts;
translating the URL associated with the request into a destination object; and
generating, based on the destination object, one or more customized links.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the destination object includes one or more of a brand, scheme, host, path, or query.
9. The system of claim 7 , wherein the operations further comprise:
determining, when the URL associated with the request is determined not to have a known host, whether the URL associated with the request contains a known domain by comparing a domain of the URL to a list of known domains.
10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the operations further comprise:
determining, when the URL associated with the request is determined to have an unknown domain, whether the URL associated with the request includes a query parameter having an alternative URL.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the operations further comprise replacing the URL associated with the request with the alternative URL.
12. The system of claim 7 , wherein the operations further comprise:
fetching, when the URL associated with the request is determined to have a known host, an updated URL and replacing the URL associated with the request with the updated URL.
13. One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media comprising instructions that when performed by one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
receiving a request for URL customization;
determining whether a URL associated with the request contains a known host by comparing a host of the URL to a list of known hosts;
translating the URL associated with the request into a destination object; and
generating, based on the destination object, one or more customized links.
14. The non-transitory computer-readable storage media of claim 13 , wherein the destination object includes one or more of a brand, scheme, host, path, or query.
15. The non-transitory computer-readable storage media of claim 13 , wherein the operations further comprise:
determining, when the URL associated with the request is determined not to have a known host, whether the URL associated with the request contains a known domain by comparing a domain of the URL to a list of known domains.
16. The non-transitory computer-readable storage media of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise:
determining, when the URL associated with the request is determined to have an unknown domain, whether the URL associated with the request includes a query parameter having an alternative URL.
17. The non-transitory computer-readable storage media of claim 16 , wherein the operations further comprise replacing the URL associated with the request with the alternative URL.
