req.path

The URL pathname from the request URL string of the current request (req). Note that this is the part of the URL after and including the leading slash (e.g. /foo/bar), but without the query string (e.g. ?name=foo) or fragment (e.g. #foobar.)

Usage

req.path;

Example

Assuming a client sends the following request:

http://localhost:1337/donor/37?name=foo#foobar

req.path will be defined as follows:

req.path;
// -> "/donor/37"

Notes

  • If you would like the URL query string as well as the path, see req.url.

Built with Love

The Sails framework is built by a web & mobile shop in Austin, TX, with the help of our contributors. We created Sails in 2012 to assist us on Node.js projects. Naturally we open-sourced it. We hope it makes your life a little bit easier!
