How to get the base path in jQuery?

Question

window.locationworks fine, but returns me the whole, absolute path, like http://domain.xyz/punch/lines. But I only need http://domain.xyz/

Answer 1

I think it will ok for you

var base_url = window.location.origin;

var host = window.location.host;

var pathArray = window.location.pathname.split( '/' );

Answer 2

Try this:

location.protocol + "//" + location.host

Answer 3

You can get the protocol and the host separately, and then join them to get what you need

window.location.protocol + "//" + window.location.host + "/"

As a sidenote, window.location.pathname would contain the path.

Answer 4

You can use this statement

var baseUrl = document.location.origin;
