Question

I am using Thymeleaf Template Engine with Spring Web MVC and I am got stuck while creating url's with the help of current url. Is there any way to get current inside Thymeleaf HTML file? eg: Suppose my current url in my browser address bar is:

http://localhost:8080/project/web/category/mobiles

and now I want to make a url like this http://localhost:8080/project/web/category/mobiles/store/samsung

or

http://localhost:8080/project/web/category/mobiles?min_price=10&max_price=100.

So I the code will look like this

<a th:with="currentUrl='http://localhost:8080/project/web/category/mobiles'" 
   th:href="@{__${currentUrl}__/__${store.name}__}">
    Click to More Result
</a>

Here I am using currentUrl variable with hardcoded url, So I want to some solution for the same. The hardcoded value will not work everytime because I have dynamic categories.

I tried the same with relative url but its not working for me.

<a th:href="@{/store/__${store.name}__}">Click to More</a>

//will produce: http://localhost:8080/project/web/store/samsung
//I want: http://localhost:8080/project/web/category/mobiles/store/samsung

Please have a look and let me know if am I doing something wrong.

Was it helpful?

Solution

Oh I got the solution for this. I missed the {#httpServletRequest.requestURI} in the documentation.

Here is the solution which is working for me:

<a th:href="@{__${#httpServletRequest.requestURI}__/store/__${store.name}__}">Click to More</a>
//Will produce: http://localhost:8080/project/web/category/mobiles/store/samsung

OTHER TIPS

You can get the current URL using two single ' quotes. Example:

<a th:href="@{''(lang=de)}">Deutsch</a>

Note that this unfortulately does not include existing URL parameters.

In Thymeleaf 3.1, the current URL can be obtained from the context object:

<form th:action="${#ctx.springRequestContext.requestUri}">

If the requested url is for example : http://localhost:8080/my-page

I could get this value: /my-page using this: httpServletRequest.requestURI

For example, if you have to load some resource , you can use:

<script th:src="@{|${#httpServletRequest.requestURI}/main.js|}"></script>

And renderized html will be:

<script src="/my-page/main.js"></script>
