How to know if a url has parameters in javascript

Question

I want to check if a url has parameters or it doesn't, so I know how to append the following parameters(with ? or &). In Javascript

Thanks in advance

Edit: With this solution it works perfectly:

myURL.indexOf("?") > -1

Answer 1

Split the string, and if the resulting array is greater than one and the second element isn't an empty string, then at least one parameter has been found.

var arr = url.split('?');
if (arr.length > 1 && arr[1] !== '') {
  console.log('params found');
}

Note this method will also work for the following edge-case:

http://myurl.net/?

You could also match the url against a regex:

if (url.match(/\?./)) {
  console.log(url.split('?'))
}

Answer 2

Just go through the code snippet, First, get the complete URL and then check for ? using includes() method.includes() can be used to find out substring exists or not and using location we can obtain full URL.

var pathname = window.location.pathname; // Returns path only (/path/example.html)
var url      = window.location.href;     // Returns full URL (https://example.com/path/example.html)
var origin   = window.location.origin;   // Returns base URL (https://example.com)

let url = window.location.href;
if(url.includes('?')){
  console.log('Parameterised URL');
}else{
  console.log('No Parameters in URL');
}

Answer 3

You can try this:

if (url.contains('?')) {} else {}

Answer 4

You can try this also.

var url = YourURL;
if(url.includes('?')) {} else {}

url.includes('?') Will return true if ? exist in the URL.
