How to get context in javascript

[andrewriver]

Hi! I want to get the alfresco share context ([server]:9080/share) in one javascript function of my custom dashlet (not the .get.js)

Any idea?? Thanks

If you are asking about how to get the context path directly from JavaScript (in the client), I do not think that is possible.

You can however, define the value in a JSP like so;

<script …>
var contextPath = '<%= request.getContextPath() %>';
</script>

No I can't…there is no JSP, just ftl, js…a share dashlet.

The freemarker templates have the TemplateNode Model to your disposal.  You can inject the context path into your template similar to how I suggested using JSP's using the url templateNode object (url.context).  Implementation details really  :wink:
