Assign Implicit deeplink programmatically

Question

In order to add a deep link implicitly, the deep link has to be added to XML. If I want to check if the destination can handle a deep link or modify it in some way then one added in XML is prohibitive.

I can see there is an addDeepLink but I haven't found a great example of it. If the deep link is added programmatically then is the nav graph even aware of it.

If you have the target destination in your graph, that's enough find it in the graph and add suit deep-link.

findNavController().graph
      .findNode(R.id.my_destination)
      ?.addDeepLink("hello://world")
