To get the current URL in JavaScript, you can use the window.location
object of the window
object. The window.location
object contains information about the current URL, and it provides several properties and methods for accessing and manipulating the URL.
Here are some examples of how to use the window.location
object to get the current URL in JavaScript:
1. To get the entire URL, you can use the href
property:
let currentURL = window.location.href;
This will return the entire URL, including the protocol, domain, path, and query string.
2. To get just the domain, you can use the host
property:
let currentDomain = window.location.host;
This will return the domain of the URL, including the subdomain and top-level domain.
3. To get just the path, you can use the pathname
property:
let currentPath = window.location.pathname;
This will return the path of the URL, excluding the domain and query string.
4. To get the query string, you can use the search
property:
let currentQueryString = window.location.search;
This will return the query string of the URL, including the question mark.
