Link

Hyperlinks can be internal (within Wave app) or external. Internal hyperlinks have paths that begin with a / and point to URLs within the Wave UI. All other kinds of paths are treated as external hyperlinks.

You can see the API for ui.link or check the interactive example in Tour app.

link-0

q.page['example'] = ui.form_card(box='1 1 2 2', items=[
    ui.link(label='Go to h2o.ai', path='https://www.h2o.ai/')
])

With a target​

Where to display the link. Setting this to an empty string or '_blank' opens the link in a new tab or window.

link-1

q.page['example'] = ui.form_card(box='1 1 2 2', items=[
    ui.link(label='Go to h2o.ai', path='https://www.h2o.ai/', target='_blank')
])

Used for cases when the link should not be clickable.

link-2

q.page['example'] = ui.form_card(box='1 1 2 2', items=[
    ui.link(label='Go to h2o.ai', path='https://www.h2o.ai/', disabled=True)
])

With button​

Links don't only need to be rendered as text. If you would like to give your links more attention (e.g. the link is a final result of some more complex action) you can render it as a button.

link-3

q.page['example'] = ui.form_card(box='1 1 2 2', items=[
    ui.link(label='Go to h2o.ai', path='https://www.h2o.ai/', button=True)
])

If you want to allow your users to download a file, use the download attribute. Note that this attribute doesn't work with button.

link-4

q.page['example'] = ui.form_card(box='1 1 2 2', items=[
    ui.link(label='Go to h2o.ai', path='https://www.h2o.ai/', download=True)
])
