The type of the navigation that resulted in the change. Possible values are push, reload, replace, and traverse. Defaults to null.

Examples

A developer would not use this constructor manually. A new NavigationCurrentEntryChangeEvent object is constructed when a handler is invoked as a result of the currententrychange event firing.

js
navigation.addEventListener("currententrychange", (event) => {
  console.log(event.navigationType);
});
