URL structure

Conzept is mainly based around URLs and iframes.

Let's first look at some example URLs and then look at all the available parameters.

example URLs

conze.pt/explore/Semantic_Web (Minimal URL with a search-string. The user-language will be based on: the stored language setting, the browser language or simply fallback to English.)

conze.pt/explore/?l=en&t=wikipedia-qid&i=Q5483435&s=true (load a certain Wikidata Qid topic. This will try to load it as a Wikipedia article, or else fallback to showing the Wikidata page.)

conze.pt/explore/Semantic_Web?l=en&t=presentation (Creates a presentation based on the search-string, if the topic also has an associated Wikidata Qid)

There are various parameters available to structure URLs.

parameter	description	default value
l	language	“en”
lv	language variant	“zh-my”
t	action-type	“string”
i	entity ID (such as the Wikidata Q-identifier)
u	URL-string
s	sidebar visibility	true
v	view-mode requested, can be “desktop” or “mobile”	(note: automatically determined by the device type, but can be overruled with this parameter)
c	custom data field (its format is not specified)
query	structured search query in JSON
commands	command API DSL code in Scheme Lisp (as used for presentations)

The types parameter (“t”) in Conzept URLs indicated what type of content should be loaded.

The following action-types are available:

type	argument data-type	description
string	search-term string	string-based search in the active datasources
wikipedia-qid	Wikidata Qid	request the Wikipedia or the Wikidata page of an entity (in that order)
link-split	url	load two content panes and load the URL into the first content pane, in the second-content pane load the Wikipedia page for the search-string
articles	search-term string	(only used internally) to update the sidebar with a new string-search (and not update the content area)
random	(none)	(only used internally) to load a random Wikipedia topic
wander	search-term string	loads the video-app to stream a series of YouTube videos
presentation	search-term string	creates a presentation (if the topic refers to a Wikidata topic)
