Match

In switchhoster, the match is the core unit in the collection that defines the target URI that the current collection can use for switching. By creating multiple matches, you can quickly switch to the specified URI to suit different work scenarios.

Describe

  • Name: Provide a concise name for the match to help you quickly identify the role of each match. For example, you can use subdomains for naming.
  • Target URI: Define the target URI after the switch

TIP

Target URI, which is not sensitive to sheme, for example: http://www.example.com will be parsed as www.example.com

Example

Suppose your current URI is https://www.example.com/page?source=google, and two matches are created:

NameTarget URI
wwwwww.domain.com
subsub.domian.com

When you press the shortcut key Ctrl / Option ⌥ + Tab, it will switch to https://sub.domain.com/page?source=google page.

TIP

MacOS users can switch through the shortcut key Option ⌥ + Tab.

Windows and other operating system users will use the Ctrl + Tab key to complete the switch.

Operations

You can perform the following operations on matches to manage and modify matches:

  • Create: Create a new match item to the current collection, specifying the match item name and target URI.
  • Delete: Deletes the current matching item. This operation cannot be undone. Please confirm before you proceed.
  • Save: Saves the changes made to the current matching item to ensure that the changes are updated.
  • Discards: Discards all current edits to the matches and returns to the matches list page.
