Is it possible to use wildcards on the android:host attribute ?
Something like:
android:host="*.site.com"
android:pathPattern=".*"
android:pathPrefix="/m/"
android:scheme="http" />
Or even
android:host="*.site.*"
android:pathPattern=".*"
android:pathPrefix="/m/"
android:scheme="http" />
Yes. After reading the Android code of IntentFilter.AuthorityEntry.match(), I can see that there is a way to put wildcard on host, but only to match the beginning of host. The rules are these:
- Put * as the first character of the host.
- Write the rest of of the host until the end.
This will work:
android:host="*site.com"
android:pathPattern=".*"
android:scheme="http" />
It will catch links of:
- www.site.com
- site.com
- mail.site.com
On the other hand the one below won't work:
android:host="*.site.*"
android:pathPattern=".*"
android:scheme="http" />
