$state.includes() only works with exact match or wildcards

[chrisspiegl]

I just tried to use the $state.includes().
Here are some things I tried that worked or not:

States:

• app
• app.client
• app.client.detail

Tests:

• $state.transitionTo('app.client')
• $state.includes('app')) - should be true - is true
• $state.includes('app.client')) - should be true: - is true
• $state.includes('client')) - should be true - is undefined
• $state.includes('*.client')) - should be true - is undefined
• $state.includes('detail')) - should be false - is undefined

As far as I understand, $state.includes('client') should match app.client?

Is it me or is there something wrong?

includes and is does not support wildcards, AFAIK. See issue #244

includes does not yet support relative states, but there is an open pull request that needs some work #636

use the fully qualified state name
