Add queryjump to redirect url (urlskip)

[Yuki2718]

Prerequisites

• I verified that this is not a filter list issue. Report any issues with filter lists or broken website functionality in the uAssets issue tracker.
• This is NOT a YouTube, Facebook or Twitch report. These sites MUST be reported by clicking their respective links.
• This is not a support issue or a question. For support, questions, or help, visit /r/uBlockOrigin.
• I performed a cursory search of the issue tracker to avoid opening a duplicate issue.
• The issue is not present after disabling uBO in the browser.
• I checked the documentation to understand that the issue I am reporting is not normal behavior.

I tried to reproduce the issue when...

• uBO is the only extension.
• uBO uses default lists and settings.
• using a new, unmodified browser profile.

Description

Mentioned in #760 (comment) #2476 (comment) and now it should be possible to implement as a trusted network filter modifier. It's similar to $uritransform except that this should redirect to different domain and complements href-sanitizer. Maybe $to or something can be combined to restrict the domain to redirect rather than always blindly trust the url in parameter. Though the original context was about shortners, I rather want to use this to automate skip of strict-block page which is currently possible only by manual click.

A specific URL where the issue occurs.

it was declined in the past, but yes, it then had been mentioned to be reconsidered over time as per : #1784 (comment)

Spaces before "?" are needed?

[gorhill]

Spaces before "?" are needed?

Yes. Commit message:

The syntax is urlskip=[steps], where steps is a space-separated
list of extraction directives detailing what action to perform on
the current URL.

In the future we might want to add base64-decoding or regex extraction (=?url base64), so a separator is needed for the sake of extending the syntax in the future, a space is a good choice since it's never meant to appear in a URL.

Hi, when I want to reach https://www.evekonomisi.net/git/11770, it redirects to this address

I wrote a filter rule as ||rdr.btrck.com/aff_c*$urlskip=?offer_id aff_id source aff_sub aff_sub2 aff_sub3 and I want to reach hepsiburada.com/philips-ca6700-10-espresso-machine-kirec-temizleme-solusyonu-p-HBCV00002YNJSF

[stephenhawk8054]

I think the parameter value should be a valid string to use with new URL(). The string hepsiburada.com/philips-ca6700-10-espresso-makinesi-kirec-temizleme-solusyonu-p-HBCV00002YNJSF is not a valid string for URL, i.e

new URL("hepsiburada.com/philips-ca6700-10-espresso-machine-kirec-temizleme-solusyonu-p-HBCV00002YNJSF")

will return error, so no, you can't use urlskip in this case.

[hurgir]

So what kind of filter rule should I write for this?

[gorhill]

||rdr.btrck.com/aff_c*$urlskip=?offer_id aff_id source aff_sub aff_sub2 aff_sub3

That is not a valid urlskip filter, it doesn't match what the documentation says how it works. Looks like you want to extract the URL from the aff_sub3 parameter; offer_id, aff_id, source, aff_sub, aff_sub2 are not valid extraction directives. This would be the proper filter:

||rdr.btrck.com/aff_c?$urlskip=?aff_sub3

However as @stephenhawk8054 pointed out, the extracted string is not a valid URL as per URL API, so it does not work in the end.

I do think it should work though, so I will see what can be done about it.

[gorhill]

In the next dev build, this should work:

||rdr.btrck.com/aff_c?$urlskip=?aff_sub3 +https
