Creating a Route from_path not working as expected

Question

I'm trying to redirect the user to a URL, which seems like it should be simple. My code is quite straightforward:

Ok(url) => {
   let params: HashMap<&str, &str> = HashMap::new();
   if params.is_empty() {log::info!("Params is empty, which is proper");};
   log::info!("Redirecting to {}", url.clone());
   let redir_route = match Route::from_path(url.as_str(), &params) {
       Some(routable) => { routable },
       None => { 
           log::info!("Failed to get route");
           Route::Home
       }
   };
   user_ctx_for_run_post.set_next(redir_route);
},

The source for from_path appears to be simple:
Check to make sure that params is empty, then return a Routable object if so. If params is not empty, return None. So I create the empty params, make sure it's empty, then call from_path and I get None every single time.

Is there an easier way to do this? What's the appropriate way to do the JS equivalent of "window.location.href = ‘https://exampleURL.com/’;" in Yew?

You can find web apis in web_sys.

The apis you're asking for, are in Window::location and Location::herf.

I hope this is what you're looking for.
