title: routerLink absolute url
body: <p>From <a href="https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/api/router/index/RouterLink-directive.html" rel="noreferrer">angular docs</a> :</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>The router link directive always treats the provided input as a delta
    to the current url.</p>
    
    <p>For instance, if the current url is <code>/user/(box//aux:team)</code>. Then the
    following link <code>&lt;a [routerLink]="['/user/jim']"&gt;Jim&lt;/a&gt;</code> will generate
    the link <code>/user/(jim//aux:team)</code>.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>So how do you create a link to <code>/user/jim</code> ?</p>
  
  <p>I tried <code>['/user/jim', { outlets: { aux: null }}]</code> but this isn't working.<br>
  Even if it worked it wouldn't have been a optimal solution. I'm rather looking for a way to navigate to an absolute url than cancelling <em>possibles</em> outlets.</p>
  
  <p>EDIT:</p>
  
  <p>On the same subject I have a link to the root : <code>routerLink="/"</code> that does just that, it redirect to the root of my application without any outlets like an absolute link. What's funny here is I don't specially want that behavior for that particular link, keeping any outlets routes was fine... </p>
