Abstract
Various arrangements for creating and using generic universal resource indicators are presented. To create a generic universal resource indicator, one or more parameters of a universal resource indicator may be identified. An interface that permits a parameter of the one or more parameters to be selected and mapped to a variable may be presented. A selection of the parameter for mapping may be received. An indication of the variable to map to the parameter of the selection may also be received. The generic universal resource indicator having a generic parameter corresponding to the parameter of the selection may be created.
Claims20
A method for using a generic universal resource indicator to retrieve a resource, the method comprising:
- accessing, by a computer system, the generic universal resource indicator, wherein:
- the generic universal resource indicator comprises one or more parameters;
- and
- a generic parameter of the one or more parameters is linked with a variable;
- determining, by the computer system, a value of the variable to use for the generic parameter, wherein:
- the value for the variable is at least partially based on a stored data field;
- creating, by the computer system, a universal resource indicator using the generic universal resource indicator having the generic parameter of the generic universal resource indicator set to the value;
- and
- retrieving, by the computer system, the resource using the universal resource indicator, wherein one or more attributes of the resource retrieved are contextualized at least partially based on the value.
A computer program product residing on a non-transitory processor-readable medium and comprising processor-readable instructions configured to cause a processor to:
- access a generic universal resource indicator, wherein:
- the generic universal resource indicator comprises one or more parameters;
- and
- a generic parameter of the one or more parameters is linked with a variable;
- determine a value of the variable to use for the generic parameter, wherein:
- the value for the variable is at least partially based on a stored data field;
- create a universal resource indicator using the generic universal resource indicator having the generic parameter of the generic universal resource indicator set to the value;
- and
- cause a resource to be retrieved using the universal resource indicator, wherein one or more attributes of the resource retrieved are contextualized at least partially based on the value.
A system for using a generic universal resource indicator to retrieve a resource, the system comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory communicatively coupled with and readable by the processor and having stored therein a series of instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
- retrieve the generic universal resource indicator, wherein:
- the generic universal resource indicator comprises one or more parameters;
- and
- a generic parameter of the one or more parameters is linked with a variable;
- determine a value of the variable to use for the generic parameter, wherein:
- the value for the variable is at least partially based on a stored data field;
- create a universal resource indicator using the generic universal resource indicator having the generic parameter of the generic universal resource indicator set to the value;
- and
- cause the resource to be retrieved using the universal resource indicator, wherein one or more attributes of the resource retrieved are contextualized at least partially based on the value.
