How Do I get a page's URL using JSOM

Question

I am using SharePoint 2013 workflow. I am in the Initiation form when my my users clock the Start button to start the workflow. I am using JSOM to start the workflow but since I am on the Initiation form, I don't know the URL of the page. I do know the list (pages) and the the list id (2).

Can someone help me retrieve the list id's url using JSOM?

Thanks

Tom

How to get Page Url in Initiation Form page:

var listId = getParameterByName('List');
var itemId = getParameterByName('ID');

var ctx = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
var web = ctx.get_web();
var list = web.get_lists().getById(listId);
var listItem = list.getItemById(itemId);

ctx.load(listItem);
ctx.executeQueryAsync(
    function () {
       var itemUrl = listItem.get_item('FileRef'); 
       console.log(itemUrl);
    }, 
    function (sender, args) {
       console.log(args.get_message());
    }
);

,where

function getParameterByName(name) {
    name = name.replace(/[\[]/, "\\[").replace(/[\]]/, "\\]");
    var regex = new RegExp("[\\?&]" + name + "=([^&#]*)"),
        results = regex.exec(location.search);
    return results == null ? "" : decodeURIComponent(results[1].replace(/\+/g, " "));
}

is intended for retrieving parameter from query string
