Seaside - how to get the full url while in a session

Question

I am developing an application that will serve multiple customer-organizations, each of them should be given access based on a fixed url. Example: domain/myapp/CustomerOrg1

Previously I always registered a new WAComponent-subclass for each of these entry-points. That does work but there has to be a better solution, I would like a single component-class to find out which URL the request uses (to then respond with the customer-org's homepage)

I tried:

• registering a WARequestHandler-subclass; and it allows me to find out the full path (incl. /CustomerOrg1) but I am outside of any session and don't know how to get into one.

• registering a WAComponent-subclass as /myapp, and it works in that it also handles /myapp/CustomerOrg1 automatically, however when I try to find out the URL used (by self session url inspect) it claims to be only the base-url (/myapp).

Answer 1

Try

self requestContext request uri

and if you are not in a component but any object you can do

WACurrentRequestContext value request uri

Answer 2

Please be aware that the uri you get in the answer by Norbert is in a production environment a value that has already been processed, and possibly modified, by your (Apache/nginx/etc) webserver responsible for static content and load balancing.
