How to use Content Creation Rules

How it Works

This example demonstrates how to use content creation rules to specify the behavior for new windows created using the web native window.open call.

Below is the content creation rule set defined in the platform manifest "platform.defaultViewOptions" object.

"contentCreation": {
    "rules": [
        {
            "behavior": "view",
            "match": ["*://cdn.openfin.co/*"]
        },
        {
            "behavior": "view",
            "match": ["*://*.google.com/*"]
        }
    ]
}

In the client/src/default-window.ts the child-view-created and view-child-view-created events we create the view from the window.open call invoked in client/src/app.ts.
