  1. You have to add the method you want to invoke to your controller and properly map the URL to it.
  2. There is additional JS is necessary to invoke this method on the server. The thing you're interested in is called: onbeforeunload

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WindowEventHandlers/onbeforeunload

You can bind your action as it's written on the document above, or you can use jQuery and do it like this:

$(window).bind('beforeunload', function(eventObject) {
  ...
});
  1. Inside this callback you need to send a request to your controller and prevent the default logic if necessary. You can use ajax(Asynchronous JavaScript And XML).
