如何获取用于向服务器发出AJAX请求的基本目录

Question

I'm trying to make a small Node.js Project. The client side of the project will be making many AJAX requests with the server. I'm trying to make code that will work with all web pages, but I discovered that the path is relative to the location of the page. How do I make the path start at the base directory of my website?

//I've tried doing this
var path = require(path);
var myPath = path.join(__dirname, '../');

/ The error was that I couldn't user require in client side javascript like you can do in Node.js /

The error was: require is not defined.

Forget about the path module:

• You aren't dealing with directory paths
• It isn't available in a web browser

Use a relative URL with an absolute path.

const myPath = "/foo/bar"

Note also that you can't construct a URL that will resolve to somewhere above the webroot. The webroot is the very top.
