Is there a built-in way to get the current URL without any query parameters?

angularjs url location-provider
Jer picture Jer · May 7, 2014 · Viewed 63.2k times · Source

If my URL is http://www.something.com/foo/bar/index.html?color=yellow&animal=rat, it seems as though:

  • $location.path() will return foo/bar/index.html
  • $location.absUrl() will return http://www.something.com/foo/bar/index.html?color=yellow&animal=rat
  • $location.url() will return foo/bar/index.html?color=yellow&animal=rat

Is there any function which will return http://www.something.com/foo/bar/index.html?

Or do I have to construct that myself with functions like protcol, host, port, etc. (or strip the query params off myself)?

As far as I'm aware you have to construct it yourself. Not that you were asking how to construct it, but for those who are wondering:

var url = $location.absUrl().split('?')[0]
