Get current url in Angular [duplicate]

Answer 1

other.component.ts

So final correct solution is :

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { Location } from '@angular/common';
import { Router } from '@angular/router'; 

/* 'router' it must be in small case */

    @Component({
      selector: 'app-other',
      templateUrl: './other.component.html',
      styleUrls: ['./other.component.css']
    })

    export class OtherComponent implements OnInit {

        public href: string = "";
        url: string = "asdf";

        constructor(private router : Router) {} // make variable private so that it would be accessible through out the component

        ngOnInit() {
            this.href = this.router.url;
            console.log(this.router.url);
        }
    }

You can make use of location service available in @angular/common and via this below code you can get the location or current URL

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { Location } from '@angular/common';
import { Router } from '@angular/router';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-top-nav',
  templateUrl: './top-nav.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./top-nav.component.scss']
})
export class TopNavComponent implements OnInit {

  route: string;

  constructor(location: Location, router: Router) {
    router.events.subscribe((val) => {
      if(location.path() != ''){
        this.route = location.path();
      } else {
        this.route = 'Home'
      }
    });
  }

  ngOnInit() {
  }

}

here is the reference link from where I have copied thing to get location for my project. https://github.com/elliotforbes/angular-2-admin/blob/master/src/app/common/top-nav/top-nav.component.ts

With pure JavaScript:

console.log(window.location.href)

Using Angular:

this.router.url

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { Router } from '@angular/router';

@Component({
    template: 'The href is: {{href}}'
    /*
    Other component settings
    */
})
export class Component {
    public href: string = "";

    constructor(private router: Router) {}

    ngOnInit() {
        this.href = this.router.url;
        console.log(this.router.url);
    }
}
