Deep linking

[uberchilly]

How would you deep link in this setup? I have tried to add deep link for the profile fragment similar to the basic navigation sample from jetpack repo, to see what happens and it basically just starts to the login page. I also cannot catch this intent in the MainActivity to navigate manually

Supposedly there is a <deep-link tag but I'm not sure how to get it to work, I've read the documentation multiple times and it's super inconclusive. I think that's only for createPendingIntent(), too.

I presume the way to do it would be to use popUpTo at the root with an action in the root NavGraph. 🤔

I have managed to make deep linking work, by removing splash_graph as a start destination and by using splash_fragment. The only problem is that when you jump deeper to some screen and start to go up it really adds start destination for every nested graph on the way and splash as a root which is problematic.

That sounds like it's by design. The alternate variant https://github.com/Zhuinden/simple-stack-ftue-sample makes this easy, but that's clearly not Jetpack Nav.
