Passing query parameters using Router.go in iron router

Question

I am trying to pass query parameters in Router.go like below:

var filter = \'abc\';
var path = Router.current() && Router.current().path;
Router.go(path,         


        

Answer 1

Right there in the docs

Router.go('post.show', {_id: 1}, {query: 'q=s', hash: 'hashFrag'});

The above JavaScript will navigate to this url:

/post/1?q=s#hashFrag

https://github.com/iron-meteor/iron-router/blob/devel/Guide.md#named-routes

Answer 2

The parameters are Router.go(path, params, options). The query part should go in the options parameter, so try the following: Router.go(path, {}, {query: {filter: 'filter='+filter}}).

EDIT

Answer 3

Try this:

var path = Router.current() && Router.current().route.originalPath;

That should give you the path without the query string attached.

Answer 4

I found that if your first parameter in Router.go is a path, instead of a template name, the query filter is not passed. Use a template name:

Router.go(templatename, {_id: 1}, {query: 'q=s', hash: 'hashFrag'});
