How to get current route name in Nuxt.js?

Question

I'm using Nuxt.js for building a static website.

How to access in component's script code currently displayed route name (I would like to avoid reading direct url from browser location)?

Can I somehow access $route.name ?

Solution 1

yes you can use vuejs route objects like $route.name or $route.path

$nuxt.$route.path

return current path

$nuxt.$route.name

The name of the current route, if it has one.

Route Object Properties

A route object represents the state of the current active route. It contains parsed information of the current URL and the route records matched by the URL.

• $route.path

  • type: string

  • A string that equals the path of the current route, always resolved as an absolute path. e.g. "/foo/bar".

• $route.fullPath

  • type: string

  • The full resolved URL including query and hash.

**

And if you want to get the url params. Like this : You do this:

  data() {
    return {
       zone: this.$nuxt.$route.query.zone,
       jour: this.$nuxt.$route.query.jour

    }   },

**

Solution 2

An alternative way is to use either of the following:

• this.$route.path → Example on http://localhost:3000 , {{this.$route.path}} will print /
• this.$route.name → Example on http://localhost:3000, {{this.$route.name}} will print index

Solution 3

for Nuxt v2 useRouter composition API

import { computed, defineComponent, useRoute } from '@nuxtjs/composition-api'

export default defineComponent({
   setup() {
       const route = useRoute()
       const routeName = computed(() => route.value.name)
       return { routeName }
   },
})

My URL contains some characters after a hash sign. Not path nor name returns the value after # /my/url/#somemore only /my/url/ is returned
