remove url parameters using javascript

Question

I would like this url:

http://bulk-click.startappsdasdasice.com/tracking/adClick?d=scsdc%20cdcsc%20c

to become

bulk-click.startappsdasdasice.com/tracking

I need this kind of pattern for all urls. so the string with the question mark and onward need to be deleted

Answer 1

There are several ways for this one of them is

 var url="http://bulk-click.startappsdasdasice.com/tracking/adClick?d=scsdc%20cdcsc%20c"; var suburl=url.substring(0,url.lastIndexOf("/")).replace(/(^\w+:|^)\/\//, ''); console.log(suburl);

Answer 2

You may want to consider using a regular expression

 var myRe = new RegExp('([http|https]://)(.+)(\/.+\?)', 'g'); var myArray = myRe.exec('http://bulk-click.startappsdasdasice.com/tracking/adClick?d=scsdc%20cdcsc%20c'); console.log(myArray[2]);

Answer 3

You can use the URL interface to achieve this and substring till the last pathname (/adClick)

 let url = new URL('http://bulk-click.startappsdasdasice.com/tracking/adClick?d=scsdc%20cdcsc%20c'); console.log(url.host + url.pathname.substring(0, url.pathname.lastIndexOf('/')))

URL lastIndexOf() substring()

Answer 4

Good idea. But use lenght const, because it assigns meaning specifically to this URL, and not to all the meanings of the URL above

const myRe = new RegExp('([http|https]://)(.+)(/.+\?)', 'g'); const myArray = myRe.exec(' http://bulk-click.startappsdasdasice.com/tracking/adClick?d=scsdc%20cdcsc%20c '); console.log(myArray[2]);
