How to get complete current url for Cakephp

Question

How do you echo out current URL in Cake s view

User · Answer

The simplest way I found is it that includes host/path/query and
works in Controllers (Cakephp 3.4):

Cake\View\Helper\UrlHelper::build($this->request->getRequestTarget());

which returns something like this (we use it as login callback url) :

http://192.168.0.57/archive?melkId=12

All previously proposed approaches didn t satisfy my requirements for getting a complete URL  complete as in qualified  e g  to be used in an email send from controller action  I need the scheme and hostname as well then  and thus stumbled over the following approach    lt  php echo Router  url  array   id    true     gt    Due to providing router array current controller and action is kept  however id isn t and thus has to be provided here again  Second argument true is actually requesting to prepend hostname etc  for getting full URL   Using Router  url   is available in every situation and thus can be used in view files as well

The following  Cake way  is useful because you can grab the full current URL and modify parts of it without manually having to parse out the   SERVER   REQUEST URI    string and then manually concatenating it back into a valid url for output   Full current url  Router  reverse  this- gt request  true     Easily modifying specific parts of current url  1  make a copy of Cake s request object    request copy    this- gt request   2  Then modify  request copy- gt params and or   request copy- gt query arrays  3  Finally   new url   Router  reverse  request copy  true

I know this post is a little dated  and CakePHP versions have flourished since  In the current  2 1 x  version of CakePHP and even in 1 3 x if I am not mistaken  one can get the current controller view url like this    this- gt params  url      While this method does NOT return the parameters  it is handy if you want to append parameters to a link when building new URL s  For example  we have the current URL   projects edit 6  And we want to append a custom parameter action called c action with a value of remove image  one could make use of  this- gt params  url   and merge it with an array of custom parameter key    value pairs   echo  this- gt Html- gt link  remove image   array merge  this- gt params  url    array  c action    gt   remove image       Using the above method we are able to append our custom parameters to the link and not cause a long chain on parameters to build up on the URL  because  this- params  url  only ever returns the controll action URL   In the above example we d need to manually add the ID of 6 back into the URL  so perahaps the final link build would be like this   echo  this- gt Html- gt link  remove image   array merge  this- gt params  url    array  id  c action    gt   remove image       Where  is is a the ID of the project and you would have assigned it to the variable  id at controller level  The new URL will then be   projects edit 6 c action remove image  Sorry if this is in the slightest unrelated  but I ran across this question when searching for a method to achieve the above and thought others may benefit from it

Getting the current URL is fairly straight forward in your view file  echo Router  url  this- gt here  true     This will return the full url http   www example com subpath subpath  If you just want the relative path  use the following  echo  this- gt here    OR  Ideally Router  url         true  should return an absolute URL of the current view  but it always returns the relative URL  So the hack to get the absolute URL is   absolute url    FULL BASE URL   Router  url         false     To get FULL BASE URL check here
