  abstract path(includeHash?: boolean): string
  abstract prepareExternalUrl(internal: string): string
  abstract getState(): unknown
  abstract pushState(state: any, title: string, url: string, queryParams: string): void
  abstract replaceState(state: any, title: string, url: string, queryParams: string): void
  abstract forward(): void
  abstract back(): void
  historyGo(relativePosition: number)?: void

}

Description

Applications should use the Router or Location services to interact with application route state.

For instance, HashLocationStrategy produces URLs like http://example.com#/foo, and PathLocationStrategy produces http://example.com/foo as an equivalent URL.

See these two classes for more.
