Lightning App Redirection

I have built a Lightning app containing a login form component. Now when user clicks on Login button I have to take the user to Registration Page another component. How can I achieve this? I went through Lightning documemntation and came across force:navigateToURL. But what should I specify as URL for the Registration Page?

Or will I have to create a separate app containing Registration page? Kindly help.

Regards

Thanks Gaurav,

I had to implement it by creating event handler, registering and then firing the event.

You don't need to create separate Lightning apps for this. Just use
  
sforce.one.navigateToURL('Your component URL here');

to redirect to the approprirate place.

Thanks for your reply Gaurav. Can you please help me understand how to form the lightning component URl?
I know the URL of a lightning app is :-
cs8.lightning.force.com/[ns]/[AppName].app

How can I form the compnent URL to be passed to navigateToURL function?

I stand corrected - you would do this using the  e.force:navigateToComponent method. Try this

In your markup
  
<ui:button label="ATTENDANCE" press="{!c.navigateToRollCall}"/>
In your controller, do something like
  
navigateToRollCall : function(component, event, helper) {
    var evt = $A.get("e.force:navigateToComponent");
        evt.setParams({
            componentDef: "c:AttendanceRollCall",
            componentAttributes: {
                programId: component.get("v.program.Id")
            }
        });
    evt.fire();    
}

Hi,

 I am able to navigate to the new component by using "e.force:navigateToComponent" but attributes are not getting passed. Please suggest.

Regards

Hi Anshuman,

Apologies for a delayed response. You would have to make your attributes Application level instead of component level. I used this strategy to pass attributes from 1 component to other. But now strangely e.force:navigateToComponent is no longer working.

Vandana
